1. January 24th is National Compliment Day. Is it easy or not so easy for you to accept a compliment? Share a recent compliment you've given or received.
I'm better at giving them than receiving them. I've given compliments to my youngest daughter as I think she's a good mama to my grandson.
2. Ten little things you are loving right now.
These are in no particular order:
1.My current crochet project
2.The current book I'm reading (The Undoing of Saint Silvanus by Beth Moore)
3.My grandson
4.My husband and daughters
5.Colby Jack Cheese (I'm eating a piece right now with my lunch)
6.My church family
7.My puppy
8.The days I can walk with my dog (when it's not too cold or raining)
9.Instagram
10.Mark Lowery's Attitude of Gratitude Posts on FB
3. Would people describe you as a positive person? Do you see yourself that way? I read here a list/description of eight things positive people do differently-
Positive people find something to look forward to every day, they celebrate the small stuff, they're kind, they stay busy, accept responsibility for their actions, forgive themselves, know when to move on, and resist comparisons
Which action on the list would you say you do regularly? Which action could you add to your life to give you a more positive outlook? If you're a positive person, what's something you do regularly that's not on the list?
I'm not sure how others would describe me, but I feel I'm a fairly positive person. I think I'm kind and I celebrate the small stuff, I accept responsibility and I'm learning to forgive myself quicker and I'm working on the comparison stuff. I try to find something everyday to be thankful for and to thank God for the little things He does for me. It really has helped to change my attitude.
4. Homemade chicken soup, beef stew, or a bowl of chili...what's your pleasure on a cold winter's day?
Of the 3 listed, I'd say chili for sure.
5. The best part of my day is....
Hubby picking me up from work and having the whole evening with him (no matter what we may be doing or where we may be going). Just being with him.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
I love video-chatting with this little one. Last night I got to play with him as he took his bath.
Thanks for visiting.

How fun to be part of bath time. Technology is great isn't it?!
ReplyDeleteI agree that you're a positive person. I love technology is available to help keep us connected with loved ones who live far away from us. Claudia (NashvilleDaughter) doesn't have kiddos but I sure do love chatting with her every day. Reni is talking about going to PA school in Maryland and I told her she could go but leave Marcy with me. :)
ReplyDeleteJoyce took the words right out of my mouth!
ReplyDeleteInstagram is such a time-saver compared to Facebook, isn't it?
I'm so thankful for modern technology which lets us enjoy lots of things we'd otherwise miss out on!
ReplyDeleteYou have a great list of "little things".

I'm so glad you can do that to be a daily part of your grandson's life. I wish the relationship was different with our two who live further away so we could do something like that, but we were kept away from them for so long that we are not that close to them. Sigh. It is what it is and we are glad that we do at least see them now and then. Our Colton has been such a joy and gone a long way toward healing old wounds. I'm so glad he lives nearby.
ReplyDeleteYou are all making me think I'm going to have to give Instagram a try. I have an account, but never use it.
Colby Jack is yummy! My daughters favorite day's are when her and her husband have the same days off together. If she could have that daily she would be so happy. Love the bath time fun with Colton.
