life hasn't treated me very kindly this week. some of my problems stem from my own negligence and some are due to circumstances beyond my control. i will admit to feeling a little droopy around the edges tonight. but i am a firm believer in choosing happiness. i think a round of positive thinking will be good for me, so here goes ten random gratefuls . . .
1. the porkchop will be going to school tomorrow after being sick all week. so happy he's not missing the egg hunt. :)
2. no school on friday!
3. only 30 school days left this year!
4. and lest you think i don't like me job, i got three new students last week who are all delightful. two are siblings from peru and the third is from puerto rico. they have added a fun dynamic to my first block class and i have looked forward to being there each day.
5. we had so much fun on our camping trip. even though we froze. we love cub scouts. love. what can i say. i'm genetically redneck and apparently g is too.
6. thankful for good friends who take care of me.
7. looking forward to going to church sunday.
8. had fun chatting with the jbs girls this morning about utee and stamping phobias. they are all so talented and awesome.
9. the tortilla soup was good while it lasted.
10. so far we've only had the ac on 3 nights this year.
11. enjoying having shimelle in my inbox each morning.
12. looking forward to diving into the may jbs mercantile kit this weekend!
oops! that's twelve!
Love you! Sorry you have had a bad week but I love your positive list! Positive thoughts definitely change things!
