Days of Gratitude #3, 4, 5 & 6

Day #3
Grateful for the beautiful weather. Not only is it so pleasant, but the kids were able to play outside, we grilled burgers and pineapple that night, and when I have to teach PE outside, things go so much better when it's nice outside.

Day #4
Do you ever have that day, or days, when it seems like the house just never gets cleaned, it's always a mess, and then you're grumpy? I've been feeling like that. And so, Thursday evening, we all pitched in and storm-cleaned the house. It was so nice to get things dusted, vacuumed and even the Hallowen decorations put away. Now I'll give a few days before I worry too much about it again.

Day #5
So grateful to have Friday's off. Since last year, Steve has been working 4-10's, so he has Friday's off. This year, I also have Friday's off, so we always get a long weekend. This usually means that we get the work done on Friday's and play and relax on Saturday's. It really is nice to have short work weeks and long weekends every week.

Day #6
Grateful for a Saturday to relax. Often, we end up going places on Saturday, so Saturday's aren't always relaxing (although fun). Today, we relaxed, watch a few football games, worked on getting my 2 year-old potty trained, and relaxed some more. What a perfect day!
