Grateful that...

1. I woke up early even if I slept really late.

Only had two hours of sleep but I still felt refreshed when I woke up.

2. I worked from home so no commuting for me. :)

3. I did not spend a cent today. Hurray!

Well, worked from home so no money spent for transportation. I still had the Cinnamon Roll I bought the other day so I ate that for breakfast. And I went shopping for grocery items a few days ago so I had lots of food to cook for lunch and dinner. And I had oatmeal cookies for snacks so I didn't go hungry at all.

4. I accomplished a lot today.

5. Talked to a friend about confused feelings and was able to sort them out.

6. Today was a sunny sunny day.

7. I have a new project in collaboration with a friend. And it's pretty exciting! Yay!

(One of the perks when working from home, hehe)

9. I am able to write in my blog again! Yipee!

10. A friend reminded me to write my goals. Which I will definitely do!

11. I cooked my lunch food for tomorrow.

I need to do some budgeting, bringing lunch food is one way to save money.

too many things...

Oh my...

There are lots of things to be thankful for, but I got really distracted lately.

G got into me. :p

Anyway, will post my usual post tomorrow!

Or later in the day.

Why Am I Blogging Again?

I felt really inspired after reading "Eat, Pray. Love" by Elizabeth Gilbert. I realized so many things, and one of which is that I am the one in charge of my own happiness. And one way to be happy is to count my blessings!

Yesterday, I bought a small notebook that will be my journal. It's been years since I had a journal and so many great things happened to me last year that I never had the time to write. Now, I vow to start writing all these things happening, big or small. And of course, if I remember things from last year, will write them on that journal as well. I also started writing things to be thankful for, and I started today. Then I thought, why not blog about it?

Well, that's it really. Hehe :)
