new blog: FIVE THINGS you need to do everyday
new blog: FIVE THINGS you need to do every day
Remember what I wrote last week? Guess not because here you are reading this! lol
Okay, number one is the most important! Always count your blessings or make sure to express your gratitude to your higher power. I do this a lot because, well.. because I AM grateful. I will even say it out loud.. when no one is around, of course, I don’t want them locking me up just yet. Sometimes we let ourselves get into a rut, go with the flow, and feel sorry for ourselves. I’m no different, I can go down that road with the best of them. BUT.. the thing is once you recognize it then change it. I know you have something to be grateful for, even if it’s in your bedroom drawer, sorry/not sorry : )
Number Two: Learn how to flush it! (no, not the bedroom drawer thingy 🙂 and I don’t mean the toilet either. Seriously, learn how to flush stuff that makes you crazy or people that drive you nuts. You know who it is, DO NOT give them purchase in your head. I want to say flush the things or stuff but in the end, it is usually people you know. I had a person who took up so much personal space in my head that it was sucking the joy from my life. Some have that power and once I realized that I was the one giving them that power, I came up with the flushing method. Trust me when I say it will consume you and spoil whatever happiness you want or need. I literally and mentally FLUSHED this person from my life. Every single time they appeared in my head I pulled a chain that flushed them down the toilet. Swooosh … swooosh … swooosh try it! It will take time but trust me, it does work and I use it to this day when I need it..
Number Three: Start each and every day anew.. if you are still on this side of the dirt then make it count. Make it your priority every morning to face the coming day with joy or even just a positive attitude. I know it is not going to happen every day, I’m only human and sometimes I need a day off too. It’s okay to just do nothing and be sick or sick of life or lazy or whatever it is you need to get out of your system. Recognize it and go with it, you know it won’t last, and voila’ the next morning you get a new day to start all over again, but only if you didn’t die in the night… think about that one : )
And that is all there is .. only three things! See that wasn’t so bad. Everyone likes to read the articles that are numbered. This blog is a bonus because it only has three things, even though I wrote five.. and you’re welcome.
The best part of this blog is the bonus picture, I took it this past weekend at the lake. Is that not the biggest wasp nest you have ever seen? My kids warned me not to put it on Facebook, so I erased their faces (I love that feature on my pixel phone : ) Some things in life are amazing and I have never seen a wasp nest this big … ever!
I am grateful for the little things in my life and in this case, the biggest wasp nest I have ever seen. I got to experience it surrounded by my family and friends. Life is full of surprises, isn’t it?
