Today I am grateful for...
:: A husband who picks up dinner so I don't have to cook the first day back from vacation.
:: Coffee...lots and LOTS of COFFEE!
:: Books that take me to a far away land and bring me lots of joy.
:: The ability to think on my feet after my boss decides to leave the country the day I get back in the office.
:: My body. I basically wreck it every month and it still keeps me strong and healthy. #hellosoccerbruises
Right shin and left quad, OUCH! |
:: Coconut oil as lotion. It keeps my skin soft and helps me smell tropical all year!
:: Fun music that helps me get through tiresome and frustrating work days.
:: Beautiful blog friendships. I have met some incredible women because of this blog and I'm so thankful for each and everyone of you who reads and connects with me here. Thank you for being fabulous people.
:: Menchies on cheat days.
Check out the frosted animal cookies ;)! |
:: Our military and their families. Our country owes each of them a great debt. #thankyou
:: My waterproof jacket when the rain decides to poooouuuurr all week.
:: Space heaters.
:: Newborn baby snuggles and smells. #nothingbetterintheworld

ReplyDeleteYes to coffee (as I am sitting here debating on whether I should have another cup, haha!) I need to buy some coconut oil..there are sooo many uses for it and I feel like I am missing out. I had one roommate once who used it to whiten her teeth! Love these gratitude posts...I am thankful for your positivity and for always making me feel happier after reading your blog!
ReplyDeleteYessss to space heaters! My feet would be frozen at work if I didn't have one under my desk. And yes to take out after getting back from vacay, cooking is the last thing on my mind :-P

ReplyDeleteLinds @ Not A Mom

All such wonderful things to be grateful for! Isn't it amazing how such a simple gesture of picking up take out so you don't have to cook means so much! Thank you so much for sharing!
ReplyDeleteOh how I love Menchies, it's so good!
ReplyDeleteYou definitely have tons to be thankful for girl, but those bruises yikes! I've never tried coconut oil as lotion, but that sounds like a great idea mostly because I'd love to smell tropical daily. Newborn smells...the best!
ReplyDeleteDang girl!! Those bruises are not small haha but they're also cool cause it's like "Yup, I play sports and get bruises, I'm cool and tough!" I am loving these thankful posts :) And I LOVE coconut oil!! I use it for like everything haha cooking, cosmetic, you name it!

Love your list and whatever those animal cookies are in looks on point!
ReplyDeleteIs that froyo? Looks amazing. I love space heaters. I had one in college, but never since.
ReplyDeleteWhat books are you loving lately?
I lather Finn up in coconut oil every night which makes him even more scrumptious than he already is! And those bruises... Ouch!
ReplyDeleteOh my gosh, please give me that froyo!!! So much yum in that picture. I'm now off to learn more about this awesome waterproof jacket because let's be real, it rains a lot in Amsterdam and I do NOT want to be stuck with wet clothes in the cold ;) xo
ReplyDeleteYES to newborn babies! Especially when they're someone else's and you can give them back after! :) lol
ReplyDeleteIt's so nice to not have to worry about cooking after vacation… but not so nice to have to deal with a boss who's gone on vacation once you're back. EEK! And yesss to books that take you faraway places! Glad I found you through the Thankful Thursday linkup!
ReplyDeleteEek...you are a tough girl friend. My office is always freezing but we are not allowed space heaters so last year I asked for a an electric blanket at Christmas and it has been perfect. Thanks for linking up with us!
