Is this love?

It's fair to say that I say I love things a lot. I have unconditional love for my family and my friends. I also love my lifestyle right now, although sometimes challenging I have a freedom that I'd never have had without the opportunity to give back to my parents.

It's also pretty fair to say that I love chocolate and thought (as I'm counting calories) I don't scoff as much as I used to I do still get some and my love for chocolate is unwavering.

I love laughing. They (whoever 'they' are) say that laughing is the best medicine and I don't think i disagree to be honest. Laughing at genuinely funny things or at some misheard or misspoken word that may be deemed childish to others is one of the things I love most. Also sarcasm and irony.

PUNS!!

This is the pun book I bought almost
four years ago and still  own.

I bloody love puns.

• A psychic midget escaped from prison, he was a small medium at large.

• I tired to catch fog once, I mist.

• Did you hear about the guy whose whole left side was cut off? He's all right now. 

• Something about subtraction just doesn't add up.

• A man just assaulted my with milk, cream and butter. How Dairy!

• I relish the fact that you've Mustard the strength to Ketchup to me.

• It's a lengthy article on Japanese sword fighters but I can Samurais it for you.

They are just punderful.

I love some parts of myself and I'd be lying if I said all of me. I've got parts of my body I really don't like as I'm sure everyone does and like everyone else I'm working on mentally excepting them and physically changing them with a good diet and moderate exercise. I also believe that with this self care is really important. I'm one of those people who moisturises everyday, permanently has hand cream in reach and takes four different vitamins a day. To me these rituals are part of my weight loss and fitness journey and it doesn't feel like I've started my day unless I've done these things.

I love my simple pleasures; a double bed to myself with as many throw pillows as I bloody well please, The area around my desk (tidied at least once a week to find more space for sticky notes and fine liners) and the things on my walls - which includes a vintage ordinance survey map of the area I live from 1964 and autographs from some of my favourite celebrities.

I love thinking about how lucky I am and asking you about some of the things you love.

What things is your life would you really struggle without? Big things or small things and what or who would you say you have love for?
