Better late than never I always say! But seriously, I have been super busy and super lazy and the fact that my schedule is not consistent doesn't help matters, but I planned to finish out this blog so that's what I am going to do! I am also typing this out on my phone so I apologize in advance for any typos!
We left off with Day 7 so I will pick up from there and you guys can find the first part on my blog in case you accidentally stumbled to this blog first.
Day 8: I am grateful for books. Jane Austen has gotten me through a lot more than I would have ever imagine (along with several other authors whom I love). Unfortunately, there are far too many to name and I could easily write enough to fill a novel. Get it? Novel? It's funny guys.
Day 9: I am grateful for adult coloring books. Honestly, it sounds silly, but coloring is so stress-relieving. Also, I love the pretty images that form when you start coloring and I'm just amazed. Sorry if I'm a little too easily entertained.
Day 10: I am grateful for mother nature. I mean I love being inside as much as the next nerd, but nothing beats sitting outside reading while the seasons take their course. I truly love living in an area ripe with plant life and full of animals because there's nothing more beautiful to me than nature.
Day 11: I am grateful for adults who know what they're doing more than me. I used to think that 18 was some sort of magic number that changed everything, and that once I reached that magic number all my teenage problems and worries would solve themselves, but it's not a magic number and honestly 18 feels no different than 17 or 19 or 20. And you spend most of that time wondering why you didn't do more post age 14. Fortunately, there are real adults out there that have been where you are and I would be lost without their understanding.
Day 12: I am grateful for food. Sounds kind of terrible because as a nation, we have an overabundance of food while other countries sometime struggle to produce food. If we want something, we go to the store or a restaurant and get it. Not everyone has that luxury. But I am extremely grateful for that luxury and it is not my wish to abuse that luxury.
Day 13: I am grateful for my husband's family. I guess I could have included this in the family part which I have already done, but they kind of deserve their own section. Honestly, my husband's family has been nothing, but amazing to me. Not everyone can say that. Even his mother was very accepting and even grateful for me at times for coming into his life. It's hard to not love his family because they know exactly how to make me feel and I know I can come to them for anything.
Day 14: I am grateful for music. Music seems shallow and unnecessary, but when I try to imagine a world without music it doesn't feel real. Like how could music not exist? Not only that, but music has so much power over things we do. It controls our emotions, it speaks to us in different ways, and it also helps us deal with things in our lives sometimes. And I am grateful for music in whatever shape or form it comes in.
Thank you for being patient and hopefully making it to the end. If you didn't make it to the end then you won't see this part anyway, but still thank you for reading any part of my blogs! I hope to see you again soon. 😉
