A month of gratitiude ...

So happy I read this girls blog in time to jump (re)start my blog with a reason to post daily. You may or may not get pictures ... you  may or may not get words ... but you will get me sharing a bit of gratitude each day in November.

Today was a good day. A day where several times I stopped and allowed myself to think about what a great day it was. I have a to-do list a mile long these days. Almost all of those to-do's are put there by me ... today I embraced that I wanted to do these things I added to my list.

And I celebrated the day as I ...
  • Washed &dried 3 loads of laundry
  • Unloaded & Loaded the Dishwasher
  • Fed E & amp;I breakfast, lunch (his packed) & dinner as Matt worked a late night
  • Cut, sewed & trimmed 18 coffee coats
  • Ironed,top-stitched & trimmed 28 mini wallets
  • Top-stitched & trimmed 8 camera strap covers
  • Cut, sewed, trimmed & fray-checked 15 key fobs
  • Did homework with E, gave him a bath & read stories before bed
  • Ran 3mil
  • Took a shower and hopped in bed with my husband before 11PM!
I'm not trying to brag or win an award by listing out my accomplishments today. There are plenty of days things don't get done, don't go according to plan and my attitude stinks. But this day as I said was a good day and I'm grateful for it!

Happy Monday!
