Thanks to the wonders of TimeHop I have been enjoying the massive ’30 Days of Gratitude’ I undertook last November (2014). And while I am not blogging anymore – and don’t really have plans to start again anytime soon – I thought it would be nice to round up all 30 days and put them out there for everyone … and so I can easily revisit them in one place.

And there you have it … exhausting to write last year, but really said so much about who I am and what matters to me.
I hope everyone has much to be thankful for this year and gets to express it to those you love. I know that some people don’t have that luxury or opportunity, and it is one reason I try to never take what I have for granted!
This year, we’ve been listing 3 things for which we are/were grateful that day each night before we go to bed (though my husband’s had an upper resp infection, so a couple of his lists were snores). I’ve been putting them in a journal I’ve used off and on, so it will be fun to go back and look at it again in a few years. Miss your blog voice!
Thanks Carina 🙂 That is a great way to do things. We haven’t done anything formal, but as we had one going away to college and the other doing preparations there is a sense of life in transition and we have definitely talked more in this way – but I like the idea of formalizing it.
Speaking of blog voices, it has been nearly two months since *someone* posted 🙂
Haha, I had a good list of excuses! Happy Thanksgiving! Enjoy having your pack together under one roof.
I just noticed this. I was sick last week and totally slacked on reading blogs. But I was just telling Rock about how I miss your blog posts. They were always so thoughtful and you are such a loving husband and parent. Nice to see a blast from the past.
Thanks Sarah 🙂 I have actually enjoyed re-reading these as well, and want them to be accessible just like my ‘origin stories’ posts. Appreciate the kind words, and hope you guys are doing well also! It made me wonder why I wasn’t seeing your posts anymore … not sure what happened to my subscription! Took care of that 🙂
Hey I’ve missed you! Thought about you as I ran past top lock at Wheelton last week! Hope you are well. Best wishes, julie
Thanks! 🙂
Your gratitude post is a good one to read approaching the new year with a good attitude.
