I’ve realised that I’ve gotten very good at making lists of about 30 things I should be grateful for, and very naff at making lists of things that I actually feel grateful for. I’ve got caught up in my own dogma. So, I’m going to try listing only those things that I actually feel grateful for.

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

1. Being aware of the above.
2. I have a job interview in less than a week.
3. I have a fair bit of cash on hand.
4. Doing a few puzzles.
5. A nice big mug of hot Teeccino.
6. The blisters on my feet are much better.
7. I have the whole day to myself.
8. I’m only fetching the parents from the shops, not taking them.
9. Fetching them went OK.
10. Mom got lots of frozen stuff, and spent about half of what I expected her to spend.
11. Helping prepare the evening meal.
12. Being motivated to do the jobs I want to do.
13. Realising that I was just stuck in a rut. I’d got into the habit of listing the same things over and over out of habit. Hornbeam. Anyway, it seems to be cleared up now.
14. Getting the majority of the tidying up done. There’s a few bits left, but nothing of any great import.
15. Time to sit and mooch the internet.
16. A nice nap.
17. Finishing The Secret Garden. I enjoyed it more than I expected to.
18. Playing with Wenna.
19. Reading Women on Fire.
20. A nice long one-and-a-half-hour bath.
21. Reading a rather good novel.
22. Mom posted some stuff for me.

Things I’ve laughed at today:

1. This lolcat. And also this one.

Things I want to manifest:

1. My desk cleared off.
2. I want to finish reading The Secret Garden today. MANIFESTED.
3. I want the clothes pile sorted out. MANIFESTED.
4. A nice hot bath tonight. MANIFESTED.
5. Some Fregair done. MANIFESTED. Some, but not much. Sufficient, though.

Things I’ve done for others:

1. Found mom a list of TV show episodes she wanted.
