Item #32 on my list "101 things in 1001days" is to become a "Weekly Gratitude" Participant. I got this lovely idea from my neighbor who blogs about her beautiful life and family. She got the idea from one of her friends who somehow can probably trace the idea back to its original creator Love, Life, Lace.
"It's a movement towards self reflection, thankfulness and peace. All you need to do is take a moment at the end of every week to think about and write down those things or moments that you are grateful for."
Since I tend to bend and/or break rules often, I have decided to switch this up a bit. I intend on posting my Weekly Gratitude every WEDNESDAY and not at the end of each week because 1) Wednesdays are known as "hump day" and thus 2) it sometimes takes some extra effort to get up to the top of Wednesday's hill so that we can coast through Thursday and Friday and into the weekend; therefore, 3) blogging about what I'm grateful for on this day might just help me put things into perspective! So this week I am grateful for:
- My super awesome amazing job that allows me the freedom of writing this blog at work! I feel truly blessed to be part of such a great and successful company and can't imagine a better work environment.
- My super awesome amazing mom who can only be described as the best mom on the planet.
- Lunch with Justin: Justin's job brings him downtown a lot so we get to grab lunch together randomly throughout the week. This might not last long so I have to recognize this luxury and be thankful for it.
- Lunch with friends: When Justin isn't available (or just WHENEVER) I have some great friends who work right down the street from me that I can grab lunch with and escape the office.
- Getting to spend time with Mallory, her new beau and her family on Saturday - she's one of my closest friends and it's nice to get to spend time with her every once in a while since she lives in Dallas.
