Gratitude and Gratefulness


Here is what is on my list today:

1) Time to myself.  To think, to write, to read, to do as I please.

2) A great conversation with a friend.  Wasn't expecting it, but what a nice surprise it was.  Learned a lot about my friend and, in turn, myself.  I've been feeling happier and more like my normal self since.

3) Going to bed at 6pm.  (Ok, I didn't fall asleep until 7pm.  And then I woke up at 9pm to have a bowl of cereal because I was starving. And I stayed awake until almost 11pm reading.) It's amazing how much easier it was to get out of bed at 6am this morning. Shocking?  Not really.

4) Sweet hubby.  I ask a lot of him, such as last night when he bathed the girls, brushed their teeth, dressed them in their pjs, read to them in our bed, and tucked each of them in.  Because I was pooped and was already in bed myself.  See #3 above.

5) Shining sun.  So much more pleasant than a grey sky.

365 Project


One of my new year's resolutions (although I've never stuck with a resolution, I always try!) is to take at least one photo every day.  That is my 365 Project.  I got the idea from Shutter Sisters, and would love to have a collection of 365 photographs at the end of the year.  Wait! 2012 is a leap year, so I will have 366 photos!  Even better.
