The Good Things that Happened Today

Yellow flowers usually make me smile

I have to admit, it's really difficult to write this right now but here I go.  I'm trying to remember to look at the bright side of things so I'm going to take a moment to write about my accomplishments for today - Thursday, October 6th.

• I asked someone for help
• I was "productive" instead of going back to bed this morning
• I did a good job at work today
• I made some plans for working towards my values
• I prepared a budget worksheet so I can get back on top of my finances
• I took a shower this morning
• I did my hair & makeup
• I felt pretty this morning
• I'm allowing myself to feel angry
• I made additions to my Guidance tattoo and have plans for the rest
• I forced myself to post something positive for you to read in the morning

Staying Positive

I'm really struggling with writing this today. I am so sorry. Since I struggle the most with staying positive, I decided that it was a good idea to make my next post about it.

I started the day trying to be positive. I woke up, took a shower, did a little something with my hair, put on some makeup and wear something that's not completly sloppy.


Then I got to work, ate breakfast, chatted with a friend and found this on my desk when I got there.

Cute, right?! She also baked a cake! Well, technically, her daughter baked it for her but the cake & chocolate frosting was delicious!












Throughout the day I found myself touching my new pendant. Mike agreed that I could get it to help with my inspiration with my locket of loved ones and I felt great starting the day off with something tangible.

I'm dreaming up a new tattoo design... I'll be sketching it soon. Maybe tomorrow, I'll post the things I've been working on.

I hope you all have a wonderful day. It is so important to stay positive in your day and it's a really great thing for me to have the tangible item to remind me of the direction I want to go.
