Day 16, 17 and 18

Day 16

TGIF!

Day 17

I'm grateful for Sabbath. I have a difficult time just doing nothing and relaxing but when I wake up Sunday morning I'm always refreshed and ready for a new week. So as much as I struggle through the rest and relaxation, it works! ;)

Day 18

Right now I'm just thankful to be heading to bed after a long day at work. My brain is a little fried. Gotta love working on fixed assets. Lots of numbers and now I just want to shut it off and get some sleep. Am I making an cents...scents....sense...since....night.

Day 14 and 15


Day 14

I'm thankful for safe travel and the simplicity of living in the country. I went to the big city and couldn't believe how many people were just everywhere. I'm apparently not used to being in the city and sharing my space with so many people. In some ways this makes me sad but in most ways it just makes me want to go home to my small country life. Don't get me wrong, I love shopping with the best of people but at the end of the day (and a long drive) I really like having my space. ;)

Day 15

Today I'm grateful for maturity and my journey.

Day 12 and 13

Day 12

I'm thankful for Mondays that don't feel like Mondays. ;)

Day 13

I'm grateful for coffee. There is simply nothing that cures the cold morning like a hot cup of coffee. When I woke up this morning my weather app said the temperature outside was 19 degrees but felt like 8 degrees. So, I made coffee and walked out of the house and never felt 8 degrees. A wonderful day.

Days 8, 9, 10, 11

Really? Wow the days go flying by!

Okay I'm going to list somethings(that I can remember) that I'm thankful for over the last couple days. Randomly ;).

My mom. She came home from taking care of my grandparents and it was really great to see her and get my momma hug. Also, while she was home I asked her to make some throw pillows for the living room. She is super fantastic! (I'll post pictures of the living room after I get the pictures in Tuesday's mail.)

Friends. Okay so Kenneth and Cary helped me rearrange the offices down stairs which required heavy lifting, changing plugs, hauling a desk from a far, and many more wonderful things(none of which either of them had to do). ;) Thank you guys, you're fantastic!

I'm grateful that after changing the office around and reorganizing things, the offices are mostly put together and are ready for the new week. Time to get back to "real" work. ;)

I'm grateful for Saturday afternoons. I love to just hang out with friends and talk or watch TV and relax on Saturday afternoons. Thank you Rosaleen for coming to visit, it was great to see you!

Today is Veteran's Day and I'm grateful for those who serve our country. I'm grateful for my brother who served in the Army and went to Iraq. I will never fully know what that took for you to do that but I'm very grateful that you were brave enough to face fear and serve. Love you!

Well I'm ready for a new week and getting some sleep. ;)

Day 6 and Day 7

Day 6

I'm thankful that every night isn't like election night. I'd have no fingernails and a massive headache. (Also the reason I don't watch sports....not to compare electing the next President of the United States to watching a basketball game....)  ;)

Day 7

Today I'm very grateful that I don't live next to a grocery store. I'd be ill from all the snack foods that sound fantastic right now and I'd also be penny less....somemore ;).

Day 5

Day 5:

Today I'm thankful for technology. I know it's a bit of a wide category but I really, really do enjoy my computer, my ipod, accounting software, wireless internet, TV, etc. And really without my camera how could I capture these moments and share them with you. ;)  You're welcome.

Thankful


Okay so for this month I figured I'd post everyday what I'm thankful for. I've seen people do it on Facebook but I wanted more room to ramble. So here are the first couple of days:

Day 1- I'm thankful for my job or jobs :). I have to remind myself of this on the first day of the month because it's usually crazy busy. I really am grateful for my office job. I love the work and it keeps me intrigued. My other jobs, well, I'm glad I get to do them because I get to help out but nothing feeds my brain like accounting.

Day 2- I'm thankful for the weeks that I get to mark off all my “to do” items as done. Those are great weeks!

Day 3- Books. I love reading but I have a little bit of a problem. That problem is that when I start reading a book I usually have to finish....no matter how long it takes and I'm not a fast reader. So I found myself up too late, reading in the morning before coffee, reading all afternoon ...pretty much I spent my whole weekend reading and it was fantastic!

Day 4- I'm thankful for a clean house and the smell of clean laundry. Going along with this is the gratitude for the house I'm now living in and the fact that when I clean it I can tell. I don't miss the days in the Shack where I would clean and wonder what I had just done. Love my new space!


Question:

How do you know that you're doing the right thing?
