A New/Old Idea

Last night I was searching for my brown boots, to match my new brown pants so that I could wear them today. It has been my goal this week to not dress down at work (not that our dress code is all that strict, but still.) and with new work clothes from my birthday from my parents, it was a great week to try this experiment. So far the response has been good. However, not that I'm sidetracked or anything, while I was searching for my shoes last night, I found a journal that my mom gave me for Christmas a few years back. The idea behind the journal was to evaluate my day and find a minimum of 3 things that I was grateful for. I made it my goal to find 5 things every day that I was grateful for. In the crazyness of my life, the journal was put away and forgotten. I was reading it last night and noticed a theme throughout this journal, almost every entry there was a family member that I was grateful for. Since this blog is an attempt to journal/scrapbook, I thought I would add a side bar of the things I'm grateful for and attempt to update them daily. I am hoping that it will help me find the positive things during the day and help me find the big and little things that I'm grateful for. Feel free to play along by adding a comment of the things you are grateful for.
