There's a lot of reasons to be joyful right now!
Reason #1:
I tried on two pairs of jeans that I haven't been able to even button for many, many months. And guess what? I buttoned them. They were still a little snug, but wearable. WOOOOOOO-HOOOOOOO!!!!
Reason #2:
I get off work at 2 p.m. today and I have tomorrow off. In fact, I don't have to come back to work until January 3 since I took three days off next week and our company is closed from the 30th through the 2nd. Major writing time coming up!!!!!!
Reason #3:
We're going to see our families for Christmas. I'm so excited to visit with everyone and can't wait to see their faces when they open their presents!
Reason #4:
It's Christmas!!!! I've tried very hard this year to remember the reason that I celebrate Christmas - the birth of Jesus. It's easy to get sucked into Santa Claus and the commercial aspects of Christmas and forget why I celebrate it in the first place.
Reason #5:
I met my goal of exercising three times a week for the past two weeks. Another big WOOO-HOOOO!!!!
Reason #6:
I have terrific friends, both online and off, and I'm thankful for each and every one of you!
