Grateful for this Saturday

After a totally shitty nights sleep, my bladder and desperate need for caffeine rudely woke me up. I really wanted to stay in bed all day. I feel like crap. My body aches, and my mind is telling me to give up. It is so cruel to allow somebody to feel so amazingly wonderful and out of this world only to take it off them and spiral them into the depths of hell. I feel so inadequate, and absent from life yet so connected with a lack of life. To stop myself from giving up, I took myself out and got some things done. I also made sure I didn't have a snooze during the day so hopefully I will sleep well tonight. Universe 1) I am grateful I was woken up when I was. 2) I am grateful for my multiple cups of tea that seemed to give me a small lift 3) I am grateful I took myself out today and didn't give up. 4) I am grateful for the beautiful fabric I bought today for a very simple project. I am hoping that this project will stir up some natural creativity. 5) I am grateful for an e

Grateful for this Friday

Everything was great until it wasn't today. Fuck me. Just when I think everything is going fabulously, I get a sap to the head to give me the true reality. Anyhoo, I am digging deep tonight Universe 1) I am grateful for the coffee I bought this morning. 2) I am grateful I didn't outwardly express my stress at the number of police that crossed my path today. 3) I am grateful that I got the support I needed during a meeting with a very difficult person. 4) I am grateful for time to myself at lunch today. 5) I am grateful I will be able to get my teeth sorted very soon. 6) I am grateful that my electricity and gas bill came in $80 less than last quarter. I am so thrilled. Prior to changing companies my electricity and gas was $300 higher a quarter. Yay! Blessings

Grateful for this Thursday

What an awesome sleep I had last night. I got to sleep early and quickly and didn't wake up until 6am. Brilliant. Today has been quite amusing. Lots of chats, lots of laughs and lots of stupidity. Universe 1) I am grateful for the amazing sleep I had last night. 2) I am grateful for the tea and peanut butter toast for breakfast. OMG I am addicted to peanut butter. Very odd for somebody who hadn't had a peanut butter sandwich or toast for the first 38 yrs of her life! No kidding. 3) I am grateful for the laughs I had at work today. 4) I am grateful for the compliments I received today about my work and my personality. 5) I am grateful I got so much work done today. Blessings

Grateful for this Wednesday

I had issues waking up today but I found some inspiration in a cup of tea and headed to work. I had a great morning filled with report writing then it was off to the city for an important meeting with a cupcake and of course some bigwigs. It was great to get back to work and only have 90mins left. The only bad part of the day was that I got stuck in a lift/elevator for 30 mans. Far from impressed but I didn't die so that is a good thing. Universe 1) I am more grateful than usual for my morning cup of tea. 2) I am grateful I left for work on time and was able to stay awake on my drive. 3) I am grateful I got my reports done earlier than required. 4) I am grateful I had a meeting in the city so I could take my lunch break and grab one of the best cupcakes ever. 5) I am grateful I got out of the lift alive 6) I am grateful I have the house to myself for the next 3 hrs. Peace and quiet. Brilliant. Blessings

Grateful for this Tuesday

Boy did I have my cranky pants on today. They were pulled up so high the wedgy could only be resolved with a crow bar. I'm not really sure why. My trip to work started with a vanilla malted milk shake (yep, milkshakes are not appropriate breakfast foods) which was amazing but the traffic was crap. I got to work to find that my email inbox was full of email issues, and I had answered all emailed when I left yesterday at 5pm. Then I had to deal with incompetent, uncooperative people, my bank account having no money and my over draft not working, and then an urgent meeting was called just as I was about to leave making me leave 45mins late for my teaching and again the traffic was crap. I need to go to bed and pretend the day didn't happen. Universe 1) I am grateful for one of the best vanilla malted milkshakes I have ever had today. 2) I am grateful I didn't panic being late for work. 3) I am grateful I have a companion I can have coffee with at work and vent 4) I am gr

Grateful for this Monday

I had an awesome sleep last night because it was a very cool night. This meant I was awake early but still wanting more. After a triple shot latte and another latte an hour later, I was buzzing my way through the day. I left my phone at home which meant I wasn't distracted by my facebook and personal email. I found that this was actually a good thing. I did feel lost without my music on my way to and from work but I was able to focus on my tasks and I got things done. It was harder to procrastinate and as a result, I wasn't able to put off the task of cold calling suppliers which is something I find really hard to do at the moment. I had a rather odd and disturbing visual of a girl who was wearing a short shirt and no underwear today but at least I had a bit of a laugh. Universe 1) I am grateful for a fabulous nights sleep. 2) I am grateful for the coffee I had on my way to work and then the coffee I had at work. Amazing. 3) I am grateful I left my phone at home today beca

Grateful for this Sunday

Great intentions don't mean a great deal if Mother Nature doesn't want to play. It was so bloody hot that the planned sleep in due to a heat affected night didn't happen. I have had a great morning though, playing with my Macbook and reading a couple of books to my little nephew. Today has gone really quickly and yet, I feel like I am some sort of time warp because this morning seems like it happened a week ago, and Saturday seems months ago. Very strange indeed. This very strange feeling has also lead me to start thinking about somebody I haven't seen in a while and somebody that I really though could have been a keeper but for one reason or another (both at fault although I just stopped contacting so really my fault) we haven't seen each other for around 2 yrs. I'm not sure why I am thinking about him and not sure why my mind is playing the, 'he was so good for you' card. I still have some very inappropriate feelings towards somebody that can never be
