Thankful Tuesday

Following on from my whinge post yesterday I thought I would do a thankful Tuesday post so that I didn’t seem like such a grump.

Obviously I am thankful for my family. Without these guys life would be dull, sad and boring. Vivi has taken to crawling around on the floor, when you ask her what she is doing she replies “I’s a wabbit”. Cutest thing ever.

Im thankful for babies who sleep on you. I’m typing this with Cora snoozing on me and it is the most peaceful, fulfilling and relaxing feeling ever. I’m sure she grows up a little bit every day but when she is feeding and sleeping she is still very much a baby. My baby.

Antibiotics. There are currently 3 people in my house on antibiotics. Im glad we have access to them. Im also glad that I have access to an abundance of information, and am currently looking into upping everyones fish oils, vitamins and improving our diet as it seems like we have been sick in one way or another since January!

Hoppy. For his birthday Maximilian decided to spend his birthday money on a bunny. We researched it and believe that caring for a pet and having someone who loves you no matter what (unlike parents who it can seem sometimes only love you if you tidy your room) could only be a positive force in our little mans life. Well, ‘Hoppy’ is just the dearest little bunny ever and we all love her! I’m not really a pet person but I do really love this rabbit. Upkeep is minimal and Maxi is pretty good about cleaning the hutch.

A roof over my head. For reals. I know too many people at the moment who are either stuck in unsuitable places, waiting to move, or paying through the nose for somewhere to live. It may not be mine but Im super thankful for this house. Im also thankful that we are moving towards a place of our own!

Motivation. So, ages ago I mentioned that I might like to run a marathon before I’m 30. I dont run. Ever. But, a few weeks ago I started and while I look horrific, sweat in places I did not know there were sweat glands and sometimes need to puke, as well as ache all over and walk a bit like a cowboy – I am so thankful that I am able to do this. Its so stupid but I didn’t think I could, and here I am, running. I ran for a full 5 minutes the other day and didnt die. Give it a few months and I might even manage swooshy hair running. I might not make 5 hours of running but I will finish the marathon in October.

Again, I feel so much better for getting those out. Sometimes I do get all down in the dumps and focus on all the crap stuff, its easy to get bogged down. I don’t like being that person. I always try and catch myself before going ‘there’ and focus on the blessings I have in my life. I really do have so much to be thankful for and sometimes its too easy to lose sight of that. Heres to a thankful week!

    Nice post. I learn something new and challenging
    on sites I stumbleupon everyday. It’s always useful to read
    through content from other authors and use a little something from their websites.

  207. web hosting says:

    You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really
    something which I think I would never understand.

    It seems too complicated and very broad for me. I am looking forward for
    your next post, I’ll try to get the hang of it!

  234. best website hosting says:

    I’m amazed, I must say. Seldom do I encounter a blog that’s both equally educative and engaging, and without a
    doubt, you’ve hit the nail on the head. The issue is something that not enough folks are speaking intelligently about.
    I am very happy that I came across this during my search for something relating to this.

  245. best web hosting company says:

    Heya! I just wanted to ask if you ever have any problems with hackers?
    My last blog (wordpress) was hacked and I ended up losing a few months of hard work due to no backup.
    Do you have any methods to prevent hackers?

    break. I love the knowledge you present here and can’t wait to take
    a look when I get home. I’m surprised at how quick
    your blog loaded on my phone .. I’m not even using WIFI, just 3G ..
    Anyhow, great blog!

    I really do go along with every one of the ideas you may
    have offered in your post. These are very convincing and will
    certainly work. Nonetheless, the posts are too brief for starters.
    Could you please extend them a bit from subsequent time?

    improve my website!I suppose its ok to use some of your
    ideas!!

    I know this if off topic but I’m looking into starting my own blog and was wondering what all is required to get setup?
    I’m assuming having a blog like yours would cost a pretty penny?
    I’m not very web smart so I’m not 100% positive. Any suggestions or advice
    would be greatly appreciated. Appreciate it

    May I simply say what a relief to uncover somebody who genuinely knows what they are
    discussing on the internet. You certainly know how to bring
    a problem to light and make it important. A lot more people
    should read this and understand this side of your story.
    I was surprised that you aren’t more popular because you
    certainly possess the gift. cheap flights 34pIoq5

    First off I would like to say terrific blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you do not mind.

    I was interested to find out how you center yourself and clear your mind prior to writing.
    I’ve had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting my thoughts
    out. I truly do take pleasure in writing but it just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be lost simply just trying to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or tips?
    Thank you!

  389. fuck me please says:

    This is some helpful stuff. It took me a while to unearth this website but it was worth the time. I noticed this page was hidden in google and not the number one spot. This web page has a lot of high-quality material and it doesnt deserve to be burried in the search engines like that. By the way Im going to add this web publication to my list of favorites.

  399. black mass says:

    Hi! Someone in my Facebook group shared this website with us so I came to check it out.
    I’m definitely enjoying the information. I’m bookmarking and will be
    tweeting this to my followers! Outstanding blog
    and amazing style and design.

  425. black mass says:

    I’ve been browsing online more than three hours today, yet I never found any interesting
    article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me.
    In my opinion, if all web owners and bloggers made good content as you did,
    the internet will be a lot more useful than ever
    before.

    Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. Its very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

    What I wouldnt give to have a debate with you about this. You just say so many things that arrive from nowhere that Im quite sure Id have a fair shot. Your weblog is excellent visually, I mean people wont be bored. But others who can see past the videos and the layout wont be so impressed with your generic understanding of this topic.

  490. 검증사이트 says:

    I’m curious to find out what blog platform you happen to be
    using? I’m having some small security problems with my latest website and I’d like to find
    something more risk-free. Do you have any solutions?

  492. tipobet says:

    Good thinking. Wondering what you think of its implication on society as a whole though? There are times when things like this begin to have global expansion and frustration. Ill check back to see what you have to say.
