Things I’m Grateful For on Friday 28 March
I’ve found these things to be grateful for or appreciate today:
- The battery in my phone died last night, without me realising. I’m just glad this happened last night, because I don’t have to be in until 1PM today. I’d never be up in time for the early shift (ie, yesterday) without some kind of alarm.
- Getting a good night’s sleep with a sensible waking time.
- Breakfast cereals.
- I’m only doing 4.5 hours today, then I get a day off tomorrow.
- I’ve had my insurance renewal premium arrive, and it’s cheaper than I thought it would be.
- I have some time to myself before work.
- Wenna looked very funny when she came in from her walk. She was soaking wet, and all fluffed up.
- Getting 4 surveys, especially one from ValuedOpinons that was worth £2.
- Chocolate.
- Having access to the internet. I’d be so lost without it.
- Living in a safe, secure, house, that is closed to the elements.
- Hot coffee.
- Tumble dryers & dryer balls, that help fetch the creases out faster.
- Seeing a blackbird eat a worm. On one hand, it was pretty horrific to see a poor worm, that was just minding it’s own business be ripped in two and then swallowed, but on the other it was cool to see the bird.
- Safe driving.
- Work went well.
- I got my payslip today, and I have enough money for next month.
- Eating healthily at work.
- Laughing with my colleagues.
- I had pretty good customers all day.
- I had plenty to keep me entertained.
- Buying a new puzzle book. I really want, right now, to get into sudoku puzzles.
- Chinese food for tea.
- A nice hot bath.
- Insights.
- Realising that just because something is a “treat”, that doesn’t mean I have to eat it.
- Working on Entrecard.
- Realising that certain things should take priority over other things.
Things I’ve laughed at today:
- Laughing with Vicki.
Things I want to manifest:
- Positive encouragement. To do what exactly?
Things I’ve done for others:
- Served lots of customers.


i’m grateful for my children, who always make me laugh.
yesterday, my 21 year old son sent me a text from the dentist’s chair, where he was under nitrous oxide.
“mom, i’m pretty sure my hands are on backwards”
i laughed so hard, i had tears.

Another good one I found is Lightspeed Panel. They pay 5 credits even if you fail the survey, and will pay to Paypal, which is great. In the past 3 weeks I’ve been paid about £8 from them.
