I am always on the go and thinking, but this past week my mind has been racing. Day after day I am constantly thinking of something I need to do, some errand I need to run, or some appointment I need to make. It's like the energizer bunny; it keeps going, and going, and going.
I used to lie in bed at night and think of all the things I needed to do the next day. Making to-do lists has really helped me go to bed calm because I know that it is written down and I won't forget it.
Even with my brain in a ball and so much going on, I still do have time to remember to be thankful. This month, I have been keeping a list of things I am thankful for, adding to it as each day passes.
I will share what I have so far.
Nov.1 Today I am thankful for opportunity.
Nov.2 Today I am thankful for my wonderful friends and family who I share such precious memories with and would not trade for the world.
Nov. 3 Today I am thankful for transportation. I am so grateful that I have a dependable way to get to and from place to place. Something I feel I often take for granted.
Nov. 4 Today I am thankful for the life that I live. Even though things may not always go as I wish, I know that God has a plan and he knows what is best. I have experienced this these past few months and everything is beginning to work out.
Nov. 5 Today I am thankful for a college degree. I realize that going to college is not for everyone, but I feel like I definitely made the right decision for me.
Nov. 6 Today I am thankful for technology. Through social networking, I have connected with friends from the past. I have gotten a chance to catch up and rekindle old friendships.
Nov. 7 Today I am thankful for music. There are so many songs out there that I can relate to. I love that when I find a good one, I can listen to it over and over.
Nov. 8 Today I am thankful for the sunshine on my face!
Nov. 9 Today I am thankful for my dog Truffles. He has been such a joy over the years.
Nov. 10 Today I am thankful for the colors of Fall. Reds, greens, browns, and yellows paint such a beautiful picture.
I will share the rest at the end.
Happy MOOvember.
Enjoy your weekend! No school tom.!
