Hmmm… Just got home from the first baseball practice of the year, in the snow and rain… trying to find a “thankful” spin on that and having trouble!
I am shocked that today is March 31, and we’re 1/4 of the way through 2011…
March is usually a dreadfully long month at school, but it didn’t seem to drag on as long as it usually does… Now, that year that I thought it would be “Brilliant” to have John Phillip Sousa for the March composer of the month… you know, ’cause he was the march king :) yup… super “clever” but honestly the LONGEST March ever :) This March didn’t seem so bad… it’s all in your perspective!
I am thankful that I’m 1/4 of the way through the year, and I haven’t completely ditched my New Year’s Resolutions!! Here’s where I am so far…
Goal #1 Blessings: Not too bad… I’ve started the Thankful Thursday posts, and have been pretty good at stopping and thinking about just how lucky we are…
Goal #2 Church: I’ve been to Mass every week with only 1 exception since the new year started… AND I’m up-to-date STILL on the Daily Audio Bible…
Goal #3 The House: ummm, well, hmmm… we’re gonna have to take a little more time and come back to this one :)
Goal #4 Health: Actually… I hate to put this in print… ’cause I’m afraid that my head will hear it… but honestly, we’ve come so far in the Migraine department… I went from multiple Migraines a week, to 1-2 Migraines a MONTH… Unthinkable!!! I just called in a refill on Imitrex that was last filled in JANUARY… crazy… We added a beta blocker, and my headaches are amazingly fewer in number and intensity!!
Goal #5 Less yelling… more patience… well, I think I’m doing better… Again, a work in progress…
Not too shabby for someone who usually doesn’t get past the end of January with ANY of her resolutions intact!!!
Something else to be thankful for… the kids :) Kathryn makes me laugh so hard… Today, we’re getting ready to go to baseball practice (did I mention it was snowing??) and I tell the kids “go upstairs and change into play clothes, we have to leave soon” So they come back down and Kathryn’s wearing an adorable little matching outfit… I say “Do you think that’s going to be warm enough?” her reply…. “It’s purple.” oh… ok… I see :)
Have a great week!! We’re gearing up for the start of tomorrow’s “Spring Fling” at Late Night Croppers!!! 30+ hours of cropping… So much fun!!!!
I think you are doing great … I need a walking partner this spring/summer for training so I’ll drag you along :)
