Gratitude Project Day Two


As my entire family is hit with a nasty stomach virus this weekend, I've had to constantly remind myself to be grateful. Very difficult, but I'm extra glad I have this project to keep me accountable.

1. My own health, that lets me take care of my family when they are sick
2. The sweetness of my son, even though he has a fever right now
3. The beautiful weather we're having right now in the Carolinas
4. Getting a shower today
5. Taking a walk with my daughter today
6. Receiving some inspiring words from my FB friends
7. An email from an old friend that has me thinking
8. The Incredibles Movie that is keeping Owen occupied while he rests (God bless Pixar!)
9. The daycare (and the amazing teachers & caregivers there) that we are fortunate enough to send our kids to while we work
10. I do have a job to go to tomorrow
11. My car is running fine
12. I just cleaned out the inside of my car (see ya later mystery puffs stuck to the bottom of the car seat)
13. Our backyard looks beautiful with the trees turning colors and leaves falling
14. A couple of people who haven't given up on me and my dreams
15. Lunch & craft-show shopping with a great friend on Friday
16. Finished some upcycled projects I've been working on for a while last night (finally!)
17. A mother who is always proud, and never fails to tell me so
18. The soreness from Thursday's Shred at the office is finally wearing off - time to do it again
19. The richness of the internet and all the amazing holiday ideas I've been finding
20. Two new songs courtesy of Starbuck's Pick of the Week on iTunes
