Friday Fuzzy.....

It's been a great week.  Valentine's Day slipped in there and Honey and I enjoyed a lovely    lunch together at one of our favourite cafes.  We did a count up and discovered that we  have celebrated 23 Valentine's together!  Hope you had a nice Valentine's Day with your   beloved or if you're single, hope you rocked it!

Donuts with Honey for Valentine's lunch.

Apart from V day, it's been a pretty normal week - work, washing, school drop offs and pick ups, cooking, sleeping, chillin, you know.....the usual.  But there did happen to be one or two things that made me think, hmmmmm.  I can't go into specifics but let's just say that my life lesson last year {and it appears this years lesson too} is about being grateful for what I have in my life and who I get to spend my life with.  I choose to spend my time with people who understand, love and support me.  I choose not to spend time with negative and mean people.  I have a stack of special people in my life who love and respect me for who I am.

I am happy with my life {even the crappy bits} because they make me who I am.  I don't wish for this and that......I may dream about things but I know that I am already luckier than many people, in many ways, so that brings me to the........

TRUE!!!  As my Mum used to say {and we would moan} "Be happy with what you've got or you lose the lot!"  Now I realise that all the little lessons my mum taught me are really coming in useful.  Thanks Mummy xxx

So I spread my message of gratefulness.  Be grateful people!  Grateful for whatever life throws at you, there's usually a hidden reason.  I have a grateful journal {thanks to Mum and Oprah} and I write down things I'm grateful for.  Some days, especially if it's been a tough one, finding 3 things I am grateful for is tricky but other days I could write forever.  That's why it's important to write in it everyday, good mood or bad mood.  On the bad days, read over the past few days and feel your spirit lift and then write your list.  This is a simple thing to do but it really works.  It has worked for me and it has worked for my Granmda {and you know how much I love her} so I truly believe it can work for you!

My Grateful Journal

So off you go....go to the shop and buy a notebook, cover it with pretty paper or stickers and buy a fancy pen to write with - make the experience fun and rewarding to do.

Be grateful, even for the little things.
