Things I’m Grateful For on Monday 30 June

Today’s list of things to be grateful for or appreciate:

  1. Getting a good night’s sleep.
  2. 3-minute snoozes.
  3. I’m not in work for quite as long this week.
  4. I’ve been paid today.
  5. Breakfast cereals.
  6. Work went OK.
  7. Chatting to Dinky and L.
  8. Laughing with M.
  9. H has finally got his backside into gear and given me a letter inviting (what an odd choice of word) me to an investigation interview. Quite why he needed to put my name and address on it, I don’t know. :lol:
  10. Know that the meeting tomorrow is, in the great big scheme of things, a nothing. It only has the value attached to it that I attach to it. Yes, it might go on my permanent record, but so what? It’s a retail job. I’m not aiming to move up the echelons of the company - I’m aiming to leave ASAP. I will get another job. And when I do that job, it will be a job I can enjoy doing. This meeting will not have any bearing on anything. Knowing that makes me feel good.
  11. That I’m not married to any of my customers. In fact, that I’m not married to anyone. :lol: I love being able to come and go as I please.
  12. That I’m not as braindead as some of my customers apparently are. I had a woman moaning today that she had to pay 1p (that’s 1c to USA folks) for a carrier bag. Then she moaned that the money wasn’t going to charity (a classic WTF moment), and then complained that the leaflet I gave her was a waste of paper. This coming from someone buying what is arguably a rather large waste of paper - a newspaper and a greeting card. I am astounded at the lack of logic that some people exhibit. I find it quite scary. :lol:
  13. Safe driving.
  14. My Teeccino arrived today. And the Vanilla flavoured one is splendiferous. Did you know that splendiferous is actually a word?
  15. Finishing a book this morning that I started yesterday.
  16. A nice nap.
  17. Ice cream.
  18. I’ve finally moved over £20 on ValuedOpinions, and I’ve claimed 2x £10 Amazon vouchers.
  19. I’ve just ordered some new hair clippers off Amazon, because I broke my old set. Completely by accident. Anyway, I’ve used the £20 of Amazon vouchers, £1.92 in vouchers that was already in my account, got free one day shipping with a free trial of Amazon Prime, and only paid £1.07 altogether. :banana:
  20. Pom-bear crisps. They’re really tasty. They also have a rather annoying SWF object on the page. Moral: eat the crisps, ignore the website.
  21. Hazelnut Teeccino.

Things I’ve laughed at today:

  1. Laughing with L and Dinky.
  2. Some funny comedy videos. :lol:

Things I want to manifest:

  1. A calm, peaceful, easy day at work. MANIFESTED.

Things I’ve done for others:

  1. Set the ironing board up.
  2. Served lots of customers.

    Hey Sol - I’m loving the new attitude to your lists. I remember you telling me that gratefulness shouldn’t be ‘forced’ - that we should only list what we feel ‘truly’ grateful for!
    I’ve been making the same mistake - listing things i think i ’should’ feel grateful for, like my health for example. I’m Bulimic - i abuse my body daily so i’m hardly grateful for my body am i, lol.
    I’m finding that my lists are a lot shorter if i only list the things i am ‘truly’ grateful for, lol. I wonder if your list for today will be shorter than your previous lists?
    Hope you’ve had a good day - look forward to reading your completed June 30th list later on tonight!

    I figure it’s better to have a short list and really feel it, than to ave a huge one, and waste one’s time. :) If you don’t feel it, it’s of no benefit, is it?
