A New Day

Life just looks different today. It looks
promising
creative
full
blessed
grateful
smiley
sunny
beautiful
content
peaceful
organized
Life has been looking...
chaotic
overwhelming
sad
down
grumpy
Today is different because I had a BAD migraine yesterday. I've been having them waaaay too much. My body is telling me to...
quit stressing about the little things
prioritize my daily to-do's
slow down
sleep more
eat healthy
exercise
meditate
stretch
spend time with friends
pray/spend time with scriptures
just be
This month our theme here at Scrapwords has been "Take time to enjoy the View". I don't think I've done a great job of that. I have kept myself so busy worrying that I didn't even get my beloved fall decorations out this year. I feel like a Fall Scrooge!!
With all the pain yesterday came lots of reflection. I just layed in bed, crying off and on, praying for relief. I began thinking about those things truly important to me. I've really let them go. And I haven't taken time to enjoy anything fully.
With just a few days left in October I want you to make the time to think about what would really make you happy this month. Here is what my picks are...
carving pumpkins with the family
trick or treating/passing out candy
scary movie night with the kids Friday and hot cocoa
Getting my Autumn stuff out this weekend for Thanksgiving
Okay so I really prcrastinated on this theme!!! LOL!:)
========================================
November's Theme will be "For this I am grateful". We'll focus on grateful journaling, create a fabulous mini book and help you find more gratitude in your days.
I know one thing I am grateful for already...all of you.
Happy Halloween!!!

Migraines are horrible. I get them too. I am impressed that you were able to manage the primary with the migraine coming on-what a woman!!! I found a new Twilight gadget at Twilightersanonymous.com. They have info and a fun quiz to see which Cullen female you match up with. I matched up with Esme and my son matched up with Jacob. Come on Nov. 21:)
