Grains of Gratitude Friday

Nature Walk Occumbe Farm 004

Sometimes the tougher things get the more we have to be grateful for and I think this week is a great example!

-My poor mum ended up with severe dizzyness & vomiting – it turned out to be just a nasty virus!

-My wonderful friends who are adopting, were matched with a beautiful baby boy in Asia! He is so beautiful and an answer to their biggest dreams of parenthood!

-I’ve found a new form of exercising that I love – boxing!!!

-I’m almost finished my first major freelance project, the final meeting is at 3pm today followed by my submitting the work electronically (hopefully by the am) and then I am done!! Yippee! This is a huge relief as I was worried for a while!

-I’m grateful that I don’t have the internet at my new home (strange I know) because it has forced me to limit my computer time – this is such a good lesson! Life is for living not being stuck behind a computer screen!

-I’m grateful that I’m away at the beach this weekend, because I want to give my body some TLC!

    Glad to hear you are doing well! I dream of not having internet in the house, but having a garden and being finished with school helps me get away from it. Now, I am job searching, so one that’s finished, I will log many less hours.

    You’ve taken up boxing???? I always thought kickboxing look like good exercise. Well, good for you!
    And it sounds as if you are nicely settling into your new home.
    Glad to hear all is well! And that your mum is getting over that nasty virus. Happy Friday. :)

    Glad to hear all is well. It’s always good to focus on the positive.

    Boxing sounds exciting! Right now I’m thankful for gardening because it’s great excercise.

    Hope you’re mom’s up and back to normal soon!

    I hope you are having a wonderful time at the beach!

    Sometimes I think no internet would be a blessing too. I’m not going to give it up though. I am considering cutting cable TV though.

    So glad your Mom is okay.

    How lovely to finish a project and celebrate with a weekend at the beach!

    My best to your mom. Severe dizziness is the worst!

    Glad to hear your mum is ok; how are your health issues progressing??
