January 5, 2015

 
A friend recently shared an article on Fb that talked about 20 Easy, Everyday Things You Can Do To Improve Your Life in 2016.  http://www.huffingtonpost.com/paige-smith/20-easy-everyday-things-you-can-do-to-improve-your-life-in-2016_b_8901350.html

I thought, I can always improve my life!!  I always WANT to improve my life.  Let's see what this thing has to offer/suggest!

The #1 thing is "Write down three things that you're grateful for every day".

I can do this.  I should do this.  I thought what a great way to pick up this blog that I ignore way too often.

It is January 5, 2015.  Today I am grateful for....

  1. Heated seats and steering wheel in my car.  I bought this lil' baby in September 2015. It just rolled over 4,000 miles.  We have been having this insanely warm weather deal in Georgia. So, instead of it feeling like winter; it feels more like Spring!  It's crazy!  I have been looking at these buttons on my car for heated seats and steering wheel. And, they have been seriously unloved and unused.  This morning, was COLD!  Finally!  (I can get excited about cold, in case you might not know this tidbit about me). So, I pushed those cute little buttons and within seconds...there is heavenly and welcomed warmth where normally there is only cold leather. Buick, thank you for keeping my butt and hands toasty!
  2. I am grateful for my eyesight. I know this is something that I take for granted just about every second of every day.  But, it really is a privilege to be able to enjoy the colors of the world that God created for us. It's astounding the diversity and vivid colors with which we are presented each and every day. Thank you, God for making such a beautiful world for such an imperfect creature to enjoy.
  3. I am grateful for Mother. She is truly a little nutjob. She is currently driving from Atlanta to Omaha, NE with my nephew.  Well, he is driving.  I'm sure she thinks she is navigating. She is 75 years old. And, finally...maybe...she is going to take charge of her life and see the beauty of her freedom. She's off making memories and I love that she is still able to do so.

I know this post will probably be far longer than most of the days I attempt to do this task!

How are you going to try to improve your life in 2016?
