Thankful Thursday # 9



Have you missed this space, boys and girls? I have, but it so happens that weeks have been flying by so fast that I never remember it's Thursday until we get to Friday. So lets seize this opportunity and carry on this fine tradition:


  1. Sunshine. It just makes everything better. And it certainly makes me happier and in a great mood.
  2. Being home with the family. This has been an unexpected turn of events, having an impromptu holiday, but I decided to make the most of it and just enjoy the time spent next to my loved ones.
  3. My lovely boyfriend. In the face of a new crisis he is my rock and he is the sort of person to let me do whatever is best to heal myself. Even if that means dropping our plans so I can fly back to Portugal for a bit.
  4. The last five months. I've never - ever! - been as happy as I've been in the past five months. It pains me that there's nothing in my power that would allow me to extend that period of time indefinitely, but I won't cry over it (anymore). I will hold my head high and my heart open, still bursting from all the good I got from that time, and I will brave my future with a smile, knowing those five months made me a better person.
  5. Portuguese food. Losing weight and keeping a diet whilst on holiday in Portugal takes a will of steel. It's one thing to dream of chocolate kidneys (not actual kidneys covered in chocolate, we're not that mad), it's quite another to see them less than a foot away and actually being able to buy them.
  6. Having time for myself. I don't actually feel I needed it that much, to be honest, however I'm determined to make the most of it and to enjoy it as much as possible. To take it as an opportunity to do things I don't normally get to do. To go on an adventure by myself.
