Gratitude

 I am combining day4 and day5 of gratitude because to me they are basically the same thing.

Day 4 wants the best thing that's ever happened to you and Day 5 is Your greatest achievement.

Other than accepting Jesus as my Lord and Savior which is #1, I would say meeting Jim and building a family with him is the best thing that's ever happened to me.  We have had other accomplishments in our married life, but our children are our best achievement.  

Still catching up so we will go on to February  - SAIA committee week was easy this year since it was in Charlotte. Tabby still had to be boarded because we stayed in the city instead of driving back and forth every day.

Then my smart butt decided I wanted to redo my office/craft room. I emptied everything, went thru it, and got rid of half of my stash.  Jim redid my closet with shelving and I painted the walls a very pretty yellow to brighten the room up , a big improvement from the builder greige.  Everything was put back in place and decorated and pictures on the wall.  It is such a nice place to retreat to.  And as with all endeavors, we learn something about ourselves.  Jim and I both learned that our house painting days are pretty much over, and that professional painters need to make a living too.
