Back to the Gratitude
So after a miserable day filled with snow and forced reminders of my recent break-up, I am now back to old self again. I had given myself permission to be a Debbie-Downer yesterday without guilt and I think that it worked. Today I awoke feeling refreshed and my usual glass-half-full self again. Sometimes it's healthy to just give in to the negativity and then be done with it. Like a craving for chinese food. You know that it's not the healthiset choice but if you don't let yourself have it once in awhile you will never stop thinking about it.

So on to the positivity...since Thursdays are for gratitude after all.

-The delicious pita chips and spinach and artichoke hummus that my sweet pal Melissa just suprised me with at my desk b/c she overheard me saying that I was hungry. A shout out to being thoughtful.

-Getting to and from work safely the past few days. There were some scary moments and I came dangeroulsy close to a guardrail. Snow may be pretty but man oh man....

-My wonderful volunteers who never fail to amaze me with heir willingness to share their lives, hearts and time with others. You are an inspiration and you make me look forward to work for the first time in months.

- the upcoming long weekend with NO PLANS! That sooo never happens! I Love waiting to see what fills the days!

-our neighborhood mechanic who went out of his way so that I could park my car in his garage when I had nowhere to keep my car last night. It is so easy to forget that there are kind people out there.

-Everyone who sent me Valentine lovin' yesterday b/c they knew that I was a wee bit sad.

There are a million other things that could make this list but I need to shut down my computer. Happy Thursday everybody!
