  38. dear Katie,
    I hope your 24th birthday was amazing. Your blog truly inspires me. I've been down for awhile and I decided to just make some reforms in my life. Now for my happiness upkeep I find myself building forts and sticking eyes on public objects. Next on my list,get a cute friendly bulldog named Harvey. :) well, have a great day.

    p.s. your "things that make me happy" posts really inspired me to make me own giant list. now pictures are a must too :)
