The title says it all. Here it is, the middle of March, and I'm sitting in my house shivering like I was in the arctic...which I pretty much am.
What is there to be thankful about in this freezing, snowy weather? Hm.
Here's what I'm thankful for this week:
1. Spring break starts tomorrow after school! The first week of it is going to be kind of crazy because I'll have lots of kids in my house all day long, but for the second week I have plans to go visit some of my best friends that don't live close to me, and it also means I get to go on a road trip with my girls, yay!
2. For a little while, the world is white and clean again...all to soon it will be melty, muddy and slushy near our house (one of the perks of living on a dirt road!), so I will enjoy not having a muddy entry way while I can.
3. I have at least a few more weeks to make wintery comfort foods. That's something to be thankful for, right?
4. This week I will complete the 30 day shred! 30 days in a row of not "phoning it in" with Jillian, and a group of wonderful motivational ladies on FB :) I'm really looking forward to taking the 30 day pics!
5. A warm house. Even if I feel cold in it, I know that it's really warm and feel so blessed that our kids are comfortable and well taken care of. This week I saw a photo of a mom in a third world country giving her son a drink of water, and he was so thin. My heart went out to her...I can't imagine not being able to provide my children with food and water and having to watch them suffer. I am so thankful that my children have the things they need.
6. That my cabinets for the new house were ordered this week. One step closer :)
7. My friend Candice who came over and completely saved my sanity this week. I was have a terrible, stressful day, and after visiting with her for a little while, I felt so refreshed! Thank you Candice!
8. That my girls stayed healthy this week. There was one night when I thought that was changing, but it was just a false alarm thankfully!
9. That my inter cranial hypertension issue seems to be solved! I went to the specialist this week and he said all looks good even though I've been off the medication for a couple of months. I am SO thankful for that!
10. The big box of scentsy that came in the mail yesterday :) Mmmmmm
And there we go! If you happen to write a Thankful Thursday post this week, feel free to link up below...I love reading what other people are thankful for :) If you don't have a blog, just comment with something you are thankful for this week. If you are having a bad week or a rough day, I promise it helps, even just a little bit.
Have a great week!

Good for you- I`m so scared of the 30 day shred, but I but the results are worth it!
