Thankful Thursday

I've been very reflective this week and overall very thankful. I have so much to be thankful for and I'm also thankful that I keep having it brought to my attention.
  • I'm thankful for my routine in the morning. I get up fairly early (4:30 am) not because I really have to but because I love the sweet time because it's quiet and the animals are happy to have the routine together with me.
  • I continue to be very very thankful for my job. I spent today at a Sales/Use Tax class which although not the most exciting thing the world reminded me of a couple of things that made me happy. 1)I have balance with this job! I finally get to leave work at work and enjoy my time with my husband. 2) I don't have crazy commute (going to this class today took me 45 minutes in the car one way! and normally it only takes me 20 minutes when there is traffic). 3)People at my new job appreciate how hard I work and the changes I've made since I got there.
  • I'm thankful for Jesse. I fall more in love with him every day. I love how hard he works for us to have a good life!
  • Finally something small but so cool...I got to get my desk at work cleaned up and organized on Wednesday. I feel so much better about work when I can spend time to get things organized.
Happy Thursday and also the best part about Thursday is that tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!

Thankful Thursday

I'm thankful that this week is quickly coming to an end. This week has been long and I'm struggling to get back and hang onto a good attitude.

This week I'm thankful for:
  • my husband and how hard is working for school and at his job so that we can have a better life.
  • our garden and our home. I'm excited to see our tomatoes ripen up very soon.
  • my puppy Calvin. He loves us unconditionally and who else is going to be so excited to see you :)
  • my parents and the fact that their marriage has not only been repaired but gotten better over the last several years.
  • the weight I've lost over the last several weeks (4 lbs!) and the changes I've seen in my body because of it.
  • diet coke :)
Hope you have a good week and thanks for reading!
