Definitely need to tweak the whole coparenting thing. Will work on that...at least there is a 3 week break from basketball! Granted Nathan and I will practice during that time...
Feeling really lucky today so going to make a gratitude list as I hear recommended so often...
1) My kids. They are just the best, even though they aren't perfect. Nobody is! Last night they wanted to cuddle in my bed bc I put on my flannel sheets. Nice and cozy!
2) My family. Yeah they drive me crazy. Often. But hey they love me and they are who they are...at least I know I have them and they help so much. Which is good bc I need BIL to come back and put up the lights that blew off the house.
3) My car. Below zero windchill and snowy streets, but it started like a champ and had no trouble on the hill that used to give me fits last year in my old car. Love reliable transportation!
4) My house. I watched Home Makeover last night. I rewound it and made my kids come see that poor house. Holes in the siding, holes in the drywall, no sink in the bathroom, using a wrench to turn on the shower, and no power to one whole side of the house??? And here I have a nice warm house, food in the fridge, clothes and toys for my kids. Awesome.
5) My job. I just love my job. Where else do you get hugged by little people on a regular basis? Tomorrow I get to make gingerbread ornaments and sing Christmas songs. And I get PAID to do this!?!
6) My new bedspread. My former grandparents gave me $100 in my Christmas envelope just like always. How sweet is that? And if I hadn't taken it they would have been genuinely hurt... So I bought a beautiful new bedspread that fits the beachy/carribean feel I had in mind. Bright turquoise with white and green accents. Hard to describe but so cute! Got the whole set on clearance at Dillards with the money. Including 4 pretty shams and two decorative pillows. Love it.
7) My church and Pastor. I just love my church. It is so great. The people are nice, the sermons are fabulous, and the kids' program is excellent. And yeah I let Nathan take communion again this week. Why? Cause he loves God and he gets it. Awesome kid.
Ok I could go on but no one will probably read this besides me, anyway! I just want to always remember the good and not let anyone with a bad attitude bring me down...
Granted Nathan and I will practice during that time...
