Hello everyone, I hope all is well with you. I’m back today after a week of work and writing. I have a new idea I’ve been fleshing out, and it’s a good one. I hope I can do the story justice. But enough about that. Today, I’d like to do a gratitude post.

Sometimes, in life we get stuck in a negative groove. There are so many things wrong with the world today, it’s easy to do, especially with our political climate. But we need to persevere and dig deep and remember to be grateful for the good things in our lives and not take them for granted.
So, what are the things I’m grateful for? I’ve made a list, and I think about it every time something doesn’t go my way, and I feel frustrated.
My family. I am so grateful for my hubby and boys. My hubby who supports my goals, and my boys who are my greatest joy. I can’t wait to see what they do with their lives. They really are amazing humans, and I’m so proud, I get to be their mom.

My full-time job. I’m grateful that I’m able to bring in a paycheck to help support our household and do the things we want to do. I’m grateful for all the opportunities that job has offered me.

I’m grateful for my writing ability. It allows me to be creative when I’m caught in the daily grind of work and parenting. It’s a great stress reliever and gives me the opportunity to explore my creativity.

I’m grateful for my tribe. The people who believe in me and support me. Especially my writing and other creative endeavors.

I’m grateful for my love of running. It’s a great stress reliever and a weight management system.

I’m grateful for my love of reading. It’s a great stress reliever and helps me keep things in perspective.

So, there you have it, my Gratefulness list. How about you? What are you grateful for? Leave a comment, I’d love to hear from you!
