Attitude of Gratitude- 30 Days of Thanks!


During the month of November, I participate in the 30 days of thanks- attitude of gratitude if you will.   Posting each day something that I am grateful for.  I do this on Facebook, and in the interest of keeping things organized I'll be listing them in this post as well! 

Day 1: 30 days of gratitude begins today! Maybe my New Years resolution for 2014 will be do to 365 days of gratitude.  Today I am thankful for my health- I woke up alive today. I am happy.

Day 2: I'm ever so thankful for my momma.  With her support & love I can conquer it all. ❤️

Day 3: Attitude of Gratitude -today and everyday I'm thankful for my amazing husband who is my true partner in all things (and who cooks me dinner and gives me wine when I've worked with crazies all day)

Day 4:  Attitude of gratitude day 4: I'm thankful for days off spent with my hubby. He works very hard & we don't always get a whole day together.  So we try to make the most of it when we do! 

Attitude of gratitude day 5: today I find myself thankful for the unwavering love of my puppy- no matter what kind of mood I'm in he's always happy to see me and ready to Cuddle. ❤️ him!  


Attitude of gratitude day 6:  today I am thankful for Advil. 

Attitude of gratitude day 6 (amended): I'm thankful for quick late night catch-ups with good friends 💚


Attitude of Gratitude day 7: I'm thankful for my long commute which affords me the chance to catch up with great friends- like this morning/ evening when I got to talk to 2 of my favorite little ladies & their amazing momma. 


Attitude of Gratitude day 8: I'm thankful for conversations with girlfriends filled with giggles, talks that seem to erase the miles between us & make Me forget where we are and sometimes how old we are. Lol


Attitude of gratitude day 9: I'm thankful for the opportunity that I didn't quite know that I was ready for a year ago.  (This week in fact! ) the chance to pick up our entire world and move it to Colorado- the adventures that we've had in the last year have definitely helped us grow stronger as a couple and it's giving me some much-needed perspective. 

Attitude of Gratitude day 10: I'm thankful for a day off to spend as I please- even if that means crawling into bed before 9. Time to recharge for the week to come. 


Attitude of Gratitude day 11: I'm thankful for our veterans, past, present &
Future- your sacrifices don't go unnoticed. I'm thankful for the man of my dreams who I married just 2 years ago! I'm also thankful for our little furbaby Augie, for his unconditional love & ability to always bring a smile to my face! (Happy birthday puppy-face!) 11/11 there's always so much to be thankful for today! ❤️❤️❤️

Attitude of gratitude day 12: I'm grateful for a job where I am appreciated & my talents are put to good use.

Attitude of gratitude day 23: i'm thankful to finally live in a community in Colorado where the roads get plowed in the morning just after it snows rather than having to dig out every day. I think I might actually enjoy this winter! I'm actually looking forward to it

Attitude of Gratitude day 27: I'm thankful for grilled cheese sandwiches with roasted veggie soup and a long bubble bath followed by puppy cuddles after a very long day at work. Thank goodness my to-do list (for today at least) is all crossed off! Goodnight.. Almost good morning. 


Attitude of gratitude day 28: today I am thankful for a thanksgiving spent with friends when I can't be around my family,a  husband who goes to work on Thanksgiving to provide for us.

Attitude of gratitude day 29: I'm thankful that I had Black Friday off! 


Attitude of gratitude day 30: I'm thankful for a sense of humor, it makes all things tolerable
