Life is good. Life is bad. Life is happy. Life is sad. Sometimes, life is all of this at the same time. But whatever life throws your way, there is always, always something to be thankful for. That is the purpose of this experiment. 366 Days of Gratitude... One leap year. It probably won't change your world, or your view of the world. But I hope it changes mine. One day, one moment, one blessing at a time.....

Day 7 of 366
I'm feeling a little overwhelmed right now. There's a lot going on. But there's always something to appreciate.
*I'm thankful for my past. I'm not thankful that I had to live it. But I am thankful for the lessons it has taught me. What it has shown me about myself. I follow the Facebook Memories almost daily. It's a good reminder of where I have come from, where I was. And as thankful as I am for the lessons of the past, I am also thankful that I am not there any more. I've come a long way :)
*I said yesterday that I was thankful that we did not get the big snow that was called for. And then I went to bed. And the sky opened up. Perhaps I was a little premature :) But I am thankful that the wind did not blow nearly as much as I expected, and that the drifts were not huge. It wasn't too bad to remove it.
*This may sound silly, but I am thankful for chicken bologna and wow butter. They make lunches for Gavin easy. I forgot last night to make his lunch, but with the help of a 2 minute sandwich, it was only an extra 5 minutes to get a semi-decent lunch into the bag and us out the door. I dreaded lunch. But those two things have made it a lot easier.
