Day 26 of 28

(Day 26 of 28! Whoa. Gratitude challenge within a gratitude challenge. Also day 56 of 365. Whoa, is right.)

I had a great day. We’ve moved into our house in June, yet I kept two boxes in my bedroom and haven’t hung up any pictures or anything on the walls. Today I fixed that and it felt real good. Real put together like. I also did a lot of laundry, I think eight loads and I have one last one to turn over before I go to bed. I’m excited to my plant babies being born. Aurora had another full day of tech crew and lots to talk about afterwards. I am grateful for how much fun and work she’s doing. Aidan starts track tomorrow and I am grateful that he’ll hopefully make new friends and move his body more.

For focusing on a mistake today, I had a harder time then I thought. I landed with, I am socially awkward. I make social mistakes a lot. It ends with me laughing it off and trying not to focus too hard on what I did wrong. I think that’s why I observe how people react a lot and hone into how people treat myself and others. It’s also a blessing because I married someone who is charismatic and can take the lead in new social environments.

So, here’s some blessings that come from me being awkward. I am grateful I have close friends who understand me and think I’m funny just being myself. I am grateful for Jon for taking the lead in new places or being a wallflower with me too sometimes. I am grateful for the love I receive from just smiling. I am grateful for letting go quickly of situations that don’t serve me. I am blessed for being a writer for getting to make up worlds and use my observation skills into my books. I am blessed for my parents teaching me how to laugh, so I can make fun of myself after it happens. I am blessed for online ordering so I don’t have to do it on the phone. I am grateful for tip jars because it will make up for what I physically do in person.

Here’s my gratitude journal for today:

Tomorrow’s gratitude focus is called magic mirror. At least three times throughout the day, look in the mirror and say thank you. Mean it, be grateful for yourself, and say the magic words- thank you.

Enjoy for day! I hope a joyful surprise finds you!
