40 Days Of Gratitude

Stole this from my bff ( http://thinkingdiva.blogspot.com/ )

"Welcome to 40 Days of Gratitude.

Here's how it works: pick a person in your life (at home, at work, in the family, God counts too) to thank for something [anything] once a day for the 40 Days of Lent. Be unrelenting in gratitude. Think to thank. Set a low bar so you can clear it everyday. You don't have to bring the person you thank to tears of joy. Just a simple thanks for the simple things. At least once a day, every day, catch 'em doing something that a thankful person would be thankful for and pretend you're that person!

Of course, you're free to do it some other way if you like (I'm blogging it). But do something. Lent is the time frame that it takes most of us to form a new habit--roughly six weeks. Wouldn't it be great to have the new habit of daily gratitude? After Easter, you'll be a more thankful person."

okay, so because I'm a few days behind, today I am giving thanks to the following:

My BFF, my good friend Tim, and Jade, the pool room attendant at my gym. Here's why:


My BFF - for too many reasons to list. Mostly for swooping in when I most need it and keeping me from going face down in my chicken soup. - you rock!

Tim - for holding my hand through the last (2 months for me, 6 months for you) few months as we watched them rip the band-aid off so slowly. Some days you were the only thing keeping me together

Jade - even though your job sucks buckets! you are mostly in a good mood and always up for some good conversation. I'd probably still come to the gym if you weren't there, but you make the experience that much less painful.

Okay, so, see you next time!
