TGIF – Gratitude Friday

May 23, 2014 / Rhonda

Getting back to the Friday posts on gratitude that ended when the A to Z Blogging Challenge began. 🙂

The top three things I’m especially grateful for this past week:

1.) Thursday afternoon off work to snuggle up with a light blanket and Roxie (my dog), a cup of tea and a good book while listening to the rain outside.

2.) Lying in the warm softness of my bed with my pen and journal in hand, the house beautifully quiet, knowing everyone is tucked safely in bed, including Roxie asleep at my feet.

3.) A caramel sundae from McDonalds, with extra buttery caramel. Yum! 🙂

Please share what tops your list for the week.

Peace.

I’m thankful for a four day weekend, and for those who gave their lives to protect us.
I’m thankful for a day spent with my friend and her 18 month old twin boys.
I’m thankful for once again having a safe car to drive.

I love that you post about gratitude. One of my favorite mantras to myself when I’m struggling is “Have an attitude of gratitude.” Repeating that to myself always helps to change my perspective and get my attitude back on track. Happy Friday!

This week…hmmm…I’m grateful for getting a new laptop charger, having time to study, getting pies that I really like and a really nice body wash I found! 🙂

Grateful for the soil I have to dig in, for friends that believe in me and for good books to read.
