Grateful Friday

1. Getting ready to fly south. Just like a bird. To soak up some sun, relax and enjoy every minute with my family.
2. A good friend who will be staying with my pet.
3. Sunshine... yes a sunny day here.
4. Spring break! Love it when the kids are home. (Ask me later in the week and see if I still answer the same. LOL)
5. My mother-in-law, who sent me my birthday present early(a month and a half early) so that I could spend it on our vacation.
6. That my husband has a good job, got a good performance review and will not be layed off anytime in the near future. (Not so for my brother-in-law, 2nd layoff in 5 years, sucks)
7. Options. I have options, I have choices to make, I have plans to lay down, I have goals to a make, I have classes to take. But I have options. Not stuck, Not stuck at all. A year ago about this time- that's how I felt. What a difference a year can make.
8. A nice reply to my blog regarding my cat. It made me happy. Just a note from a stranger, but it was kind.
9. Two days to clean my house. Yes, I will be cleaning my home for above said friend who will be living here for 2 weeks. So I will be dusting, vacumming, washing floors, changing beds and looking to make sure there are not any leftover christmas decorations visible anywhere. Seriously-glad to have the weekend to do this. It will keep me very sane.
10. Again glass half full- not half empty. Continuously reminding myself of this. It makes all the difference.
11. Another good book.
12. Almond MM's in wonderful pastel colors.
13. My to do list is getting smaller.
14. Did I mention- heading south!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
