Thankful Thrusday # 1


Let me start by saying that this is not an original idea. I borrowed a friend's idea of Thankful Thrusday and used it for a while on my Bubblews account (long dead, may it rest in peace!). But I've been missing it and so decided to bring it back into my life. A day of the week in which to take time to be thankful. Isn't that just the perfect way to start a new year? So here we go, here are the things I've thankful for today:


  1. My job. Not just having one, but landing this particular one. I am absolutely in love with it, every single aspect. For the first time in my life I don't struggle with getting out of bed and starting my day, in fact after I pass the semi-comatose state I always wake up from I am always quite keen to get into the office and start a new day. Having fun doing my job is still a brand new concept and I am over the moon about it!
  2. My boyfriend. He is my rock, my partner, the person I choose to live alongside every day. And it's an easy choice. I'm especially grateful this week, when I've had to dedicate myself completely to a new routine and haven't have a lot of free time for my other duties and chores. So yeah, my boyfriend is a star!
  3. Slightly longer days. You can notice it a bit more every day. And soon enough it'll be dawning by the time we get up and it'll still be day when we leave our jobs. And it's getting brighter too, the promise of Spring is already in the air.
  4. January. Nothing seems to inspire us more than a fresh new year in which to make our plans a reality. We promise, we pledge, we believe that everything will be better, that we can be better. And if we're determined enough this year might be the year!
  5. Being able to remove make-up without looking like an orphan panda. I'm dead serious. It's been a decade-long struggle, but I finally managed to do it (sort of). At least I don't look like a panda, which is a massive improvement!

And this is it for this week. What are you thanful for today?
