Grateful that my homeowners association didn't see my lawn before I edged it yesterday.
This morning's motivation. I feel productive, therefore I am productive.
Yesterday's suprise thunderstorm. It was a beautiful light show and my yard really needed the water.

My wonderful friends and family who have been so loving, supportive and inspiring. Life is good!
My incredible luck.
A few weeks ago I got into a car accident that totalled my car. On the surface this looks like nothing good could come of it, but on the contrary - the accident may be a blessing in disguise. I am grateful for the following outcomes of this event:

1) No one was hurt
2) Insurance totalled out my car, forcing me to buy a new one
3) I like my new car better
4) My insurance settlement covered the cost of the new car so I am still car-payment-free
5) I was able to secure the new car before my rental car insurance payments expired
6) My insurance payment for my new car is less than my old car
7) I have a little money left over
8) Since I'm unemployed at the moment, it didn't really inconvenience my life too much

The most important thing is that no one was hurt. Things can be replaced, but injury can last forever. Thanks to my angels for keeping me safe!
Grateful that I have the courage to try something new. It will be successfull!
Grateful that I am healthy.
Grateful that I have the willpower to maintain a frugal lifestyle.
2 months without a post - terrible! There has been so much to be grateful for! The biggest gift has been TIME.

1) Time to relax and regroup and recover from burnout.
2) Time to go to the gym and kickstart my fitness program.
3) Time to work on some of my projects.
4) Time to enjoy the pool :)
