365 Days Of Gratitude. In February I was grateful for...

I have seen many people on social media list something every day that they are grateful for and thought I would join in and have on my private Facebook account every day and I thought I would share here too.

I did this for the whole of last year and it has really made me realise that even on the bad day's I have something to be grateful for.

Today I was grateful for

Day 32 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for Disney+. I watched the new Black Panther film this afternoon. It was good, not as good as the first one but I enjoyed it.

Day 33 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Ellie filled in the application form for college right. She did it at school and I was worried about what course she had gone for. She picked the right one, Electrical Engineering. She got an email today inviting her for the interview and for us to fill in the forms to officially enroll! My baby is growing up!

Day 34 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for getting washing out on the line. It was so warm here today, well warm compared to the weather we've had lately.

Day 35 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for spending some time in the kitchen with Ellie. She did her Biscoff Brownie thing that she got for Christmas and I made some chocolate chip cookies.

Day 36 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Happy Valley had a good ending. Not the one I was expecting but it was still good.

Day 37 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Stu cooked tea. It's becoming a regular thing on a Monday which I am happy about.

Day 38 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for having a lovely day with Becky. It's been nice to spend some quality time with her.

Pea and ham soup

Day 39 of #365DaysOfGratitude 
Today I am grateful that the new recipe I tried turned out well. This pea and ham soup might look like a melted Shrek but it was amazing! Ellie said she wasn't going to eat it, she doesn't like peas but once she had tried it she couldn't get enough!

Day 40 of #365DaysOfGratitude 
Today I am grateful that I had another day of getting the washing out on the line.

Day 41 of #365DaysOfGratitude 
Today I am grateful that it's now half term! I'd like to say we're having lie in's and lazy days next week but we have plans. Shopping, cinema, sorting the garden and a few jobs around the house.

Day 42 of #365DaysOfGratitude 
Today I am grateful for a night in front of the TV with my family watching The Masked Singer and The Brit Awards.

Day 43 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a nice, relaxed Sunday.

Day 44 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Ellie has finally got her own bank account. It's one of those things we've been meaning to set up for ages but life got in the way and then Barclays messed us around. The young man in my bank was very helpful and got it all done within half an hour.

Flowers and chocolates

Day 45 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a nice meal with Stu. Roasted Mushroom Arancini Hearts and garlic bread for starters, Vegan Wellington, creamy mash and Chantenay Carrots with Yuzu & Lime for the main and Belgian Chocolate Raspberry Hearts for dessert. I also got some unexpected flowers and chocolates.

Day 46 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a day of getting jobs done around the house. The kitchen cupboards have been well and truly decluttered and sorted.

Day 47 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that despite B&Q messing me about I have got some wallpaper ordered for Ellie's bedroom. I should be here by Monday. Phew!

Day 48 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a quiet day. This half term has been a busy one.

Day 50 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Ellie made me watch the musical Hamilton! It was so good!

Pancakes

Day 52 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for pancakes! hehehe

Day 53 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Becky is on nightshift for a few nights so Ellie can sleep in her bed while Stu is decorating her bedroom.

Day 54 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful that Ellie had a good hospital appointment, it was just a check on her hearing aids. She has one more appointment next year and that's it, she'll only have to go back if she has any problems with her ears or the hearing aid.

Day 55 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a night out with Stu (just to the local pub), a nice meal, one too many drinks and singing until my throat is sore.

Today I am grateful that the decorating in Ellie's bedroom is nearly done. It should be all back to normal by this time tomorrow.

Day 57 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a little lie in this morning. It was nice not to have to set an alarm.

Day 58 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a delicious sausage casserole for tea. There's leftovers for lunch tomorrow too.

Day 59 of #365DaysOfGratitude
Today I am grateful for a normal day. Stu is back at work after a week off, there's been no DIY happening and I have just had a day pottering around the house.

  1. Lots of lovely reasons to be grateful for. I really enjoyed doing this but things have got so busy lately I found myself catching up every week on the days that I'd missed. Still love reading yours though. xx
