Half full Friday

I'm happy this week because:

1. Cleaned & organized. I got a lot of cleaning & organizing done on Tuesday & Wednesday. I threw out a ton of things.

2. No Stomach flu. Happy that my daughter didn't have the stomach flu. I got a call on Wednesday that she threw up twice in school. I think she threw up cause she didn't eat breakfast or lunch. We are now getting her to eat breakfast everyday.


3. New store. I went to Hobby Lobby for the 1st time today & loved it.


4. Good deals. I went to a consignment shop & got some clothes for T for $18. I got a coat, 2 dresses & a shirt with a sparkley snowflake on it.

Half full Friday

Half Full Friday is a series of weekly posts that Eyegirl originally started in June 2009. We believe that a lot of our happiness is determined by our attitude about the things that happen to us. So by participating, I'm deciding to see the glass as half full instead of half empty; I'm choosing to concentrate on the positives instead of dwelling on the negatives. The Half Full Friday posts are a way to do just that. They're a list of the things in my life that have brought me happiness over the past week. I'm determined to find something good in each day. Are you?

For the next week, I'd like to challenge each of you to keep a list of at least one thing that brought you happiness each day. Be sure to link up here once you've posted your list! (This isn't a blog hop so please only link up if you've participated by posting your happy list. Thanks!)

This week I am happy because:

We got a free coat from Freecycle for Tara. I love free stuff. The coat is really nice & in such good shape.
I went to a Fall parent/teacher meeting. Tara is doing great. She is learning a lot & has changed so much in the past 2 months.
I got out for a Girl's night last night. Only for an hour, but I got to try a ton of yummy food & also try Skinny Girl's Sangria. It's pretty good. My friend is a Tastefully Simple consultant & had her 1st party at her house. She did great.
Did some shopping today. I picked out some pretty Vera Wang earrings for myself for X-mas (from my hubby).
Donated some stuff to Salvation army. I always feel good donating stuff. I will be bringing some coats to be donated for people in need.

Glad that the weekend is here. We're going out to dinner tomorrow night & will be having some much needed family time.
