I haven’t posted a list in quite a while because things have been pretty tough around our house lately. Staples has an EASY button, but sometimes I just need a PAUSE button. Since I don’t have one, I do the next best thing. I read other people’s blogs. It must have been fate because the first one I read talked about not being negative all the time and finding 10 things to be thankful for. Naturally I had no choice but to come here and post my 10 (it’s that karma thing). So here goes…on second thought, hang on it may take awhile…..
1. The weather today was beautiful–sunny, but not too hot.
2. Did not have to use the air conditioning–saved money.
3. Our dog did not chew up ANY furniture today.
4. I cleaned out my bedroom closet–the bag for Goodwill even made it all the way to the car. This one is so big that it should probably count as at least 2 good things.
5. I moved furniture today and did not break anything.
6. My children are healthy–24 hours with no blood loss or broken bones. If you knew how active my children are, especially Sweetie #2, you would wonder why this wasn’t listed in the #1 spot.
7. I’m healthy!
8. Everything is working today–car, computer, kitchen appliances, etc. I hope I’m not tempting fate by listing this one.
9. Tomorrow’s Monday and it’s a school day. Don’t get me wrong. I love spending time with my children, but sometimes I really need a school day.
10. I’m tempted to list this one as “I’m thankful for making it to #10″, but that would be cheating. So the #10 spot goes to ….. Today was a good day. (Considering life at our house lately, this is a biggie.)
