Meaningful Monday - 7/23/12

Well, this is something I've been doing on the 'other' board for a while, but since no one seems to pay attention there except to freak the hell out over things, I thought I would bring my "happy" weekly post here! 

So each Monday I'll post a "Meaningful Monday" post -  a post to talk about all the good things that happened in the previous week, things we're grateful for, things that made us smile. I figure we all whine and complain enough in life, it's nice to type out the good things too sometimes. Heck, it might be just that you managed to not hurt someone that day!!! ;-)

Re: Meaningful Monday - 7/23/12

  • I'm so grateful for my weekend away! I needed some alone time, some time to just be Michele instead of mom, wife, attorney, etc. Just be ME. 

    I'm also so grateful for coming home to my 2 gorgeous, healthy children. Their hugs and kisses last night were the BEST.

    I'm happy about physical therapy. The injury sucks, and the therapy is painful, but I am really hopeful that I'll be running by September, building up my miles again for a 5K maybe in November????

    I am so thankful that my kids get along (most of the time).

    I am thankful that my friend didn't give me too much crap for telling her that the scallops she made were dry and a bit bland. I'm also thankful that we all had a big belly laugh when she told me it was chicken bites, not scallops, that were wrapped in bacon. Chicken = the scallops of the earth! ;)

    I am grateful that we are prepping for our new pet. He's a cutie!

    I am relieved my son hasn't tried to climb this... yet! He knows it's a "cat toy"

    I hope you don't mind me extending this into Tuesday, Michele! Happy posts are good. I get caught up in complaining far too often. (even writing these, I so badly want to add a "despite xyz..." bad habit!)

    I am grateful that I have had an uneventful pregnancy.

    I am grateful that I am employed and that my income is enabling us to have a second child without having to stress about finances.

    I am grateful that we are going on a trip to DH's family's reunion. We do not see his family often, and many have yet to meet DS.

  • I am just glad to see posts on this board again!!

     

  • good posts can be extended to every day! ;-) 

    And me too - I'm happy to be back!! I would check every now and then but it was so quiet I didn't do it often enough. But I'll come back and make some noise! ;-)
