Thanksgiving break was amazing.
All it consisted of was eating, shopping, playing games with fam, coming up with ideas for Christmas, driving to Southern Utah and spending time with family there, going shooting, eating more, getting car sick, and writing more thank you's from the wedding.
Jon's REALLY good with the shot gun.
I'm really not.
And he found what he wanted for Christmas:)
Also it's MY Cotton On bag he is holding. He would never purchase from there.. But I love it. And hey 40% off everything, couldn't resist.
Anyway.
The problem was, no homework was included in that list, for Jon or me.
Actually the problem was that we didn't regret it.
But, Sunday night we were really scramblin.
And in the midst of all my projects that are due, I forgot I have a paper due tonight in my Health 383 class.
It's a gratitude journal, that I SHOULD have been keeping through out the whole semester.
100 things I'm grateful for.
And not just things like cereal or shoe laces because they keep my shoes on.
It requires 100 sentences/paragraphs on my "blessings and in depth understanding of the many opportunities I've received in my life."
And because I totally spaced, I had to come up with 100 things all in one setting.
This took WAY longer then I thought it would.
But it also just changed my whole day.
It's amazing what you can come up with when you look at your whole life and how much you're given each day.
For some reason the things I seem to worry about don't seem to matter so much anymore.
Granted, I probably could have benefited from spending a few minutes each day to recognize these things.
Now I know:)
Happy Tuesday!
And less then 3 weeks till Christmas break!
