body lovin' homework #5

2010 June 29

More body lovin’ homework from Medicinal Marzipan today.  Are you taking part?  Even unofficially?  You should.  Today’s assignment: Keep a daily gratitude list, writing down THREE to FIVE things that you are grateful every night before you go to sleep.

I did this for several nights.  Some of the things I came up with seem so mundane, I hesitate to write them.  But in the interest of honesty, I am grateful for…

  • my two little boys.  They make my world complete.
  • having a husband that can do/fix anything.
  • my health.  Despite how I’ve sometimes treated myself, I am in great health.
  • a healthy, happy marriage.  We don’t fight; we bicker.  We’ve got it very good.
  • being in less pain today than I was yesterday.
  • fresh strawberries.
  • friends that build me up, both in person and online.
  • feeling pretty.
  • being happy with myself.
  • not having money woes.
  • sunshine and a light breeze.
  • finally making peace with myself.
  • walking four miles on the canal with no pain.

There you have it, my incredibly random list of things I am grateful for.  What are you grateful for?

    I love your list…and to me they are not mundane things.
    I am grateful for family and friends, and knowing how to get my weight under control and doing something about it.
