It's been a dreary day in OKC...but it wasn't nearly as bad as the weather reports coming out of Houston today. Apparently the city was hit with floods...including the Med Center, where I used to live. I tried calling MDA today, but the recording said the offices were closed. I'm so grateful God got me out of there before the spring rainy season began. And then I'll be outta here before the tornado season begins! Anyway, I'm convinced that I'm solar powered...so when it's gloomy outside, I'm officially "mood off."
I decided I had to do something productive or else I'd be moping around all day. So, I'm embarked on operation "new dining room decor." I love chocolate chip and Htown with all my heart...even though they are honest to a fault... recently they expressed some dissatisfaction with my placemats, my table centerpiece, and my boring wall decor. I'm not sure why I listen to their opinions and then proceed to change everything per their suggestions...but I do. So, I got rid of my table centerpiece and found some new placemats, and started pinteresting ideas for new wall decor. I spent the evening making the new wall art below. Hopefully I will get a stamp of approval from the girls! **crossing my fingers**
This afternoon, girly Merly came by and she introduced me to bullet journals! I started creating mine tonight after I finished crafting, but I'm not quite finished yet. If you're someone who uses a planner, you might want to look up bullet journals on pinterest or You Tube. It's a pretty great and super cheap way to get your life organized, keep up with goals and finances, and monitor how you're spending your time! I'm super excited to start using mine!
I decided to use my journal to maintain an attitude of gratitude...among other things. So every day, I will list a few things that I'm grateful for to keep my mind focused on the positive things in my life. Today I listed:
Friends with good ideas
Hobby Lobby (for obvious reasons)
Dr. H (he actually called me today to check up on me. I don't know many doctors who call their patients to see how they're doing and remind them to schedule follow up visits! I'm definitely grateful that I'm back under his care for a while!)
In other news, I'm starting the official countdown...T-minus 5 days till Punu's home!
