Best You Day 36

What did I do today? Church, potluck after… fixed pictures, played games with the kids, made some delicious meatball sandwiches… Watched the ABC show with Jaycee Dugard. (amazing)

What did I feel today? TIRED… and content

What do I feel grateful for today? My friends at church

What challenged me? getting up.. I was tired!

How did I overcome that challenge? Got up.. because well I needed too 🙂

What did I savor today? We had my birthday cake today, while I was standing there on the one side of the bar with the CAKE ALL A BLAZE.. I looked at all these people (my family) singing and smiling at me..(on the other side of the bar).. and it was like time stopped. How blessed could one person be with all those people singing to me with love in their eyes?

How about you? What are your answers? Here is why I'm doing this.

Best You Day 34

What did I do today? spent several hours trying to renew my drivers license… and was NOT successful. This may not seem odd to some people, but if you've ever been to the Ottawa Kansas DMV then you'd know the longest most people wait is 10 minutes.. on a bad day.

What did I feel today? happy until I realized how old I was gonna be tomorrow..

What do I feel grateful for today? I got to spend some time with #3 and eat lunch with her. It was fun.

What challenged me? I was looking at photos on Facebook of people I went to highschool with… it made me feel like a fuddy-duddy.. and well, like the mother of 6 children 3 of which are pretty young.

How did I overcome that challenge? Nothing.. but my kids tried to make me feel better. Not one of them threw up on me the rest of the evening 🙂

What did I savor today? Time alone with #3.

Best You Day 33

What did I do today? Not much.. worked on my sermon, took my kids into KC. Listened to so crazy people in Borders books yell at each other.

What did I feel today? weird that my birthday is here.. because this age seems OLD to me.

What do I feel grateful for today? my husband's love and respect. I listened to a husband and wife fight.. and he was so rude to her. Even when he's mad at me he's not rude to me.

What challenged me? loosing focus…

How did I overcome that challenge? drank some coffee.. put on my head phones.

What did I savor today? #2 picked up #6 in Hobby Lobby and said "He needs his diaper changed, I'll do it." It's unbelievable to me that a 15 year old would do that without prompting.

How about you? What are your answers? Here is why I'm doing this.
