I wanted to jot down a couple of thoughts of gratitude.
Luckily I re-read what I wrote about last Christmas. How harried I was and that I vowed to have my shopping done by November 30. I did it! I'm so thankful I wrote that on this blog. It's been so much better. My attitude for Christmas has been so much more peaceful.
Next, year I need to have all the shopping AND the wrapping done by November 30. I also need to write a list of everything I got the kids/family/friends, so I don't rack my brain constantly wondering if I got them equal stuff.
Last night I was literally up all night coughing. I took plenty of cough medicine but nothing helped. I got pretty upset that I couldn't rest. But, then my gratitude attitude kicked in. That's was so great!
I was grateful for:
-the fact I was in a nice warm home
-the fact that I could rest in a nice warm and soft bed
-indoor plumbing
-I had medicine
-I wasn't so bad that I had to be hospitalized
Things like that. I had other thoughts that escape me now, but I'm so glad I was able to be thankful even in a time that wasn't so pleasant. PERHAPS, I'm maturing. Don't tell my parents.
