Living a thankful and grateful life is something that I have been actively trying to do this year. My 365 Days Grateful Journal has been so much fun that I am considering ways to carry on this habit next year and the following year and hopefully for the rest of my life.
I'm planning to share my journal towards the end of the year but as we are approaching Thanksgiving Day I thought I would take part in 30 Days Of Thankful. Here is week 1.
1 November 2014 | At this moment in time I am craving rest and relaxation. Snuggling up on my bed with my laptop and my kitty makes my heart very happy.
2 November 2014 | This little animal makes my heart so happy. I loved sitting at the window with Smidge watching the rain drops roll down the window.
3 November 2014 | I am thankful for new experiences. This morning I woke up in a hotel in Newcastle and had breakfast in the restaurant listening to music by Elvis. Never would I have thought I would say that.
4 November 2014 | I parked in front of these at a clients place and they instantly reminded me that Christmas is on its way. I have no idea what they are called but the little, round redness of them brought a smile to my face.
5 November 2014 | Today I got my 50 miles aware from Fitbit. It was a nice surprise and reminded me that while I am trying to make improvements to my body and its health, it carries me around each and every day so that I can do what I need to do.
6 November 2014 | Tonight I went out for dinner with some friends. Friends who love me just as I am. I am so grateful to have them in my life, so thankful that I could celebrate the good times and share the hard times with these ladies.
7 November 2014 | I love the freedom that my car gives me. Today I decided that I wanted to have my hair cut and that it had to be done today. Having my car meant that I could simply hop in it and head off into town - no fuss, not hassle.
Hope you've remembered to be thankful this week.
