It’s getting harder and harder to maintain these gratitude diaries. I’m not sure why.
Today was a weird day. We were up late last night since we had people over. That means that today, I got up late and the kids and the hubby woke up some time after me. But it’s Sunday so it’s a day of relaxing and hopefully not doing anything. Or, just doing what we want to do. I enjoy updating my blog and pages and getting everything ready for the next week. I quilt and sew and look at my projects. I am enjoying the process.
So I’m grateful for a quiet and relaxing day. We have a lot of leftovers from the party so we’re set for food. I need to pack them up and get them ready to take to lunch for work or school.
I’m grateful for having a lot of leftovers so we do not have to worry about making dinner or buying lunch these next few days.
As I write about my day and different things that pop in my head, I recognize more where I am grateful. It becomes easier as my mind clears itself from the list of things I have to do and reflect upon the goings on of today.

Because you’re past all the easy things – the off the cuff things. Now you are having to dig a little to find the true gems of each day. But you did it for this one. =)
Thank you Susan!
