I had a good day, with good news. My dad wasn’t admitted to the hospital. My mom worried he would be because he was diagnosed with kidney failure in December and the swelling of his legs has been really bad since they came home from Florida. I offered him one of mine when I firstContinue reading “Day 74”

Oof. Today was a day. I am drained and tired. With that said, I am grateful I stood my ground multiple times today and I am grateful for the strength to do so. I am looking forward to resting tomorrow. I am grateful that I’ll be able to. Here’s my gratitude journal for today: HaveContinue reading “Day 73”

I had a good day with challenges but I am grateful for the time to do everything with. We had our annual eye appointments for the kids and myself. Also the kids had ortho too. Teens, teens. They’re constantly testing my boundaries, patience, and intellect. I am grateful for the patience that I have whenContinue reading “Day 72 gratitude-a-long”

I am grateful for this day, it was a great nothing special day, but it had awesome moments. I dyed and trimmed Aurora’s hair. It’s now a wine type of purply-red. I saw Noah and Cole at lunch and had some laughs with them. Aidan took a shower without being told, I’ll take that asContinue reading “Day 71”

Today I relaxed and crocheted a bunch. I thought I finished Cole’s blanket, but alas it’s still too short. He’s a tall guy, so I want to make it right. (Don’t mind my handwriting for tonight.) I read about merrows, watched Netflix with the hubs, planned out the next couple of months, made meals, andContinue reading “Day 70”

Jk, it’s just a gratitude journal challenge. Tonight I shuffled the cards with the sugar gliders. It was a lot of fun and something I’m going to do more. These three cards flung out of the deck, though it should be noted that Orion bite the Canary card during the preshuffle and he also triedContinue reading “Day 69 gratitude sing-a-long”

Today was a full day, filled with lots of love. I checked on my praying mantis eggs earlier. Pretty sure they haven’t hatched yet. At least I hope they haven’t, we’re going through so colder weather currently. Diring the fall when I was trimming my front bushes I noticed one sac and today I foundContinue reading “Day 68”

Today was a great slow day. My foot is healing, hurts but not as bad as the days before. I am grateful for all my cells working hard to get me back to normal. Thank you! My husband worked over today and I am grateful to be able to be here with our kids andContinue reading “Day 67”

Oh, I hear that card today! (Funnily I had that card yesterday too.) Yesterday I had a couple hiccups when it came to my stepson’s diabetes supplies and his track warm-ups order form that was turned in late and there for not allowed to be submitted. I got nowhere with anyone. But today, everything simplyContinue reading “Day 66”

Is this that gratitude year challenge? Yes, you’re right! 65 days out of 365! Today started off with gratitude from a place of pain. I talked about how I put curtains up yesterday. Well, I left a metal part of the bracket for the blinds on the floor. Oops. So, when I went to theContinue reading “Day 65”
