Finishing the first month of postings!
Ha ha, this is my "cop out" posting. But seriously, I'm thankful for getting through the first month of postings. I can't say that it's made me a LOT more grateful in my daily life, but I think it's helped somewhat. It has helped me focus on the little things more and think about things I took for granted. It's also stretched my brain and creativity. And we're just a month into it. Thank you all of you who are reading! You may get your own special posting in the future... ;)
1 month down, 11 to go!

Good workouts!
This one's going to be short and sweet (like me...ha...that joke never gets old). A couple of weeks ago, Will and I went to the grand opening of our friends' Crystal and Israel's gym, Re:MOVE//Training. They had door prizes, and he won a free month, and I won two free weeks. I did my first workout of the two week session tonight, and WOWSER! I definitely thought I was going to be sick even before the warm-up was finished! But, as much as I struggled and as sore as I'll be for the next couple of days, it was totally worth it! It also really makes me appreciate how blessed I am to have good health and the ability to do most of the things they did (I'll get there eventually!). Now, will someone come brush my teeth for me since I can't lift my arms?

Firestone's Road Hazard plan for tires!
This definitely was not my original posting topic for today, but since I had to use that wonderful service, I thought i would give it a shout out!
Yesterday, Will and I went s lot of places and had plans to go to a church event and a party after church. When we came out of church, we discovered that my tire was flat. Sigh. For those of you keeping up at home, this is the second flat tire that I've had in less than 6 months. Double sigh. Thankfully, the portable pump inflated it enough to get me home but it changed up our plans a little bit! So today, we got to go to Firestone and have them fix it. Since I purchased the Road Hazard plan when I bought these tires, they fixed it free of charge, not to be an advertisement here, but Road Hazard is worth the money! But, I hope not to visit Firestone again for quite a while!

My DVR!
It's been a busy past couple of weeks, and I haven't had a lot of time to even think about anything beyond just making it through each day! Thankfully, my DVR has worked overtime and is ready for me to settle in tomorrow and clear some things off of it. DVR, I am all too happy to comply with your request!

Great double dates!
So it seems my blog and iPad conspired against me and this posted a blank posting last night. Sigh.
I can't remember what I wrote, but I know it had something to do with the fun double date that Will and I went on last night. It's sometimes hard as an adult to make friends, especially ones that both you and your boyfriend like, so I was thankful for that.
That's all I've got this morning. Blogger, please play nicely today...

Hoodies!
Not to continually talk about the weather, but it's been raining in Tennessee a lot lately. I don't know the statistics for average January rainfall and where we stand, but it seems like it's rained at least 20 out of 26 days in January (I arbitrarily selected that number but it could be true, I guess...). When it rains, for some reason, work doesn't shut down, so I still have to leave the dry warmth of my home and go to my car. It's not a long enough walk to merit using an umbrella, plus, I hate trying to get in the car and fight with putting my umbrella down and get it into the car without soaking everything. For that reason, I'm thankful for the hoodie. Practical, comfortable, and keeps my 'do dry so I don't look like a drowned rat when I go into work. Also, hoodies have the added bonus of keeping you warm. They also can make you look tough. Tough beats cold, drowned rat any day, so the next time it rains, put your hood up and sing a little bit of "Lose Yourself" while you watch the poor suckers fighting with umbrellas. You'll thank me later.

I bet Eminem never gets his hair wet in the rain...

Yoga!
My job offers free yoga classes every Wednesday at noon. With the way the last couple of weeks have been, I definitely needed some relaxation time! Yoga is great because it makes you feel taller. For someone who tops out at 5'3 on a good day, feeling taller is always a good thing!
