Gratitude: Day 12

Man! I am behind! Went on vaca for 10 days and have been busy dealing with this neck issue, work, etc...but back on track!

Today I am grateful for:

1.) Hearing from 2 of my very best friends who live far away but are both doing great and their happiness makes me happy :-)

2.) A relaxing and restful vacation! I went alone but was able to spend time with very good friends while away and it was great to have some downtime.

3.) My niece who calls me out of the blue just to chat. She is so happy and loving her new school and her happiness also makes me very happy!

Gratitude: Day 11

Today, I am grateful for:

1.) My new chiropractor and acupuncturist...she really is awesome and I am so grateful to be in such good care with her. She will probably be on here a lot as I get thru this pinched nerve and bulging disc issue. 

2.) Hearing from a former customer / friend today! It had been a few months since we connected so was a pleasant surprise to hear from her and I am grateful for our new friendship!

3.) Less pain in my arm/shoulder/neck as the day went on. I woke up feeling like I had gotten worse but after a good adjustment, the doc said my neck was normal and healthy for the first time in 2 weeks! Then we did acupuncture which relieved a lot of the pain during the session and my body seems to respond so positively to the treatment...as the day goes on, I feel better and better and even my attitude and mood improves. I'm really loving this ancient woo woo stuff!

Gratitude: Day 10

Today, I am grateful for:

1.) My new bath recipe: lavender and chamomile Epsom salts, baking soda and lavender essential oil!

2.) Finding a good massage therapist here who can help me with my pinched nerve and bulging disc. She really knows what she is doing.

3.) Making the time to go grocery shopping and buying all healthy food to eat the rest of this week :-)

Gratitude: Day 9

Today, I am grateful for:

1.) Progress with my neck, arm and shoulder issue

2.) Finding a great chiropractor who has a plan for my recovery

3.) Discovering acupuncture 

Bonus: My super awesome health insurance which covers all these alternative therapies 100%!

Gratitude: Day 8

Today I am grateful for:

1.) Fun girls weekend! I'm feeling refreshed from the weekend and ready to start the work week after a great weekend with some of my best friends!

2.) Having lots of healthy food in my house to start out the week.

3.) Clean house and laundry done. Ready for Monday!

Gratitude: Day 7

Today, I am grateful for:

 

1.) Living in same town with one of my best girl friends. This is the first time since 2006 I have lived in same town of one of my bestirs and it's pretty awesome!

2.) Girls weekend! Several of my very best friends are coming in town this weekend and I am so thankful we have the opportunity to spend the weekend together. Can't wait! 

3.) Making the time to get more organized at work. I do a little each day and it feels so good to get a new system going in my new job.

Gratitude Day 6

Today, I am grateful for:

1.) My new cleaning lady. She is awesome and does an awesome job everytime! I paid her a little bit extra today because she is so awesome :-)

2.) A very, very productive day at work. Every meeting was purposeful and solutions oriented and really felt like my teams moved forward on several projects. Most importantly, I made a huge dent in cleaning up and organizing my emails and that feels awesome!

3.) The little deli that is just a few blocks from my house. Their food is fresh and delicious and it is only a 15 minute or less round trip...perfect for a day like today when I only had a half hour for lunch!
