Feb 24, 2012 ~Day 18

Gratitude~

1.  SO GRATEFUL today was Friday!!! Glad to have this week over with, hell, I'm  glad today is over with!! Too many grouchy customers to deal with!!

2. Grateful I decided to take on this 21 day challenge, I think it helps me to try and find the positive on days like today, that kind of suck!!

3. Grateful that I know I can sleep in tomorrow, even if I shouldn't!!

Journal a positive event~

I'm positive that, if 4:30 hadn't come when it did, I may have killed the next rude customer!!! Vacation is just days now!!

Oh! And today I left a little post on one of my daughters, friends, Facebook page, it was her birthday, {that's not my the positive thing} I was touched when she replied that she had actually shed a tear. And she also told Maddy that I had left it and she acted like she thought it was pretty nice! Now the positive thing is that I was able to say something that she was moved by. I was glad that something so little could touch and move someone. 

Exercise~

Nope, it’s my mandatory day off

I thanked the universe, repeatedly, for helping me keep my big mouth shut, when dealing with stupid customers today!!! Does that count???

*Today was not one of the better days during this challenge, but still, it's something!

Feb 25, 2012 ~Day19

Gratitude~

1. I was grateful to sleep in. Funny how when you start getting up really early, it seems like sleeping in when you get up at 8:30am!!

2. I am grateful that I had the strength and determination to soldier on and finish the Day3 of the C25K training! 

3. I am grateful I got to go watch band practice today, even if I should've been doing other things, it was nice to be able to just sit and listen to them {while working on my blog}

4. I am grateful for the technology that I have, that allowed me to type the blog today while not at home!

5. I am grateful that Ryan has decided to go with me and Tallon to Bay City to watch the band.

6. I am grateful that Maddy and a couple of her friends are going to the show also.

7. I am grateful for the warm bowl of chili, after sitting in a cold garage for hours.

Journal a positive event~

Band practice went pretty well, and I think that makes Tallon happy, that everyone is playing well and it's coming together with a new member!! It's been a while since every member of the band was playing well and excited  about being there!!!

Exercise~

YEP!! did my C25K training, week 1 day 3 is in the books, I'm tired as hell, and a my hip sockets are hurting but, I DID IT!!!

Random Act of Kindness, thank someone in your social support network~

Not yet but the day is not over! I will thank all of Tallon's friends for going to the show tonight and I will thank Ryan for deciding to go with me. And I thanked Ryan for making yummy, warm chili!!
