30 Days of Gratitude: Day 4

Today I am grateful for.......

  • A windy day allowing me to dry clothes the old fashion way
  • My mother-in-law cooking us dinner so I have one less thing to do
  • A quiet day of housework making me grateful for all that we have.

30 Days of Gratitude: Day 2 & 3

Day 2: Grateful for the way that a simple conversation can lead to the answering of a prayer even before the words of the prayer had been spoken.


Day 3: Grateful for being able to sit outside and have dinner together - one of my favorite places to be.

30 Days of Gratitude: Day 1

Really honestly after the first few hours this morning I thought this was going to be a rough day to find anything to be grateful about.....but I did :o) So here is my day 1


"Grateful for the sunshine this morning which brightens my perspective. For the new Adele CD (bought on sale) that lifts my spirits. For the Starbucks Cinnamon Dolce Latte I treated myself to in a stolen moment to warm my body."

The sun is a 2 part stamp from Green Grass stamps "You are my Sunshine" stamp set, and the stickers are from the Stella & Rose "Hattie" line.

So what are you grateful for today? Post your link if you've got it on your blog.

A change of attitude

So lately I've been having a rough time with life in general......

Nothing major

Nothing horrible

Just life.

Most of it is out of my control and I just am going to have to suck it up and deal with it. Some of it I could change but due to the subsequent consequences I'm not ready/willing to right now.

So I decided what was needed was a change of attitude.......

So come April 1st I am going to try

30 days of gratitude

It's a 5x7 album with rings so that I can add stuff along the way if I want to. I used different papers from different companies out of my stash. I did kind of decide on a color scheme but that's as much planning as I did. The pages are already numbered to keep me honest :o)

Inside 1 gratitude

I'm going to add a few more embellishments before I start but most of it I'm going to do as I go. The pages are not all the same size.

Inside 2 gratitude
Some pages I'll just journal on, some I will add some photos or mementos too. By the 30th of April I will have a book to look back on and remember all the things that make my life wonderful.

Won't you join me? I'd love to share your joys :o)
