5 CRAPPY THOUGHTS I'LL MOST LIKELY HAVE TODAY

1. I HAVE SO MUCH TO DO.

 Wah, wah, wah.
The classic line for when I feel stressed. 

I can't tell you how often I think this. 

I need more hours in the day!

 My list is so long. I'm going to be up so late.

2. I'M TIRED.

Typically thought the moment my alarm goes off in the morning,
 or around the 3 o'clock stretch during the week at work.

Where's Starbucks delivery service when I need one?

3. I WANT HER WARDROBE.

That top is so cute. She has the best shoes. I want those pants.

That bag? I think I need it. Not sure if I have one like it.

4. DO I HAVE TO GO WORKOUT?

Yes, you do actually.

5. I MISS MY MOM.

Our time was cut short.
 I wonder what my life would be like if she was still alive?
It's just not fair. 
Why my Mom?
Thoughts I'm sure I will have daily forever.

None of these thoughts ever stay for that long, but they show up from time to time.
The more I think about them, the more they take control of my day
 so I really try and think as positively as I can.
You didn't think I'd leave ya hanging with just my 5 of my daily crappy thoughts, did you?
Of course not! {or this would be a pretty depressing post and that isn't what this day is about. I mean, tomorrow is the last day of work before Christmas and that's something to be excited about...}

So...how do you change these into positive thoughts?

1. I feel blessed to have a job that keeps me busy-I'm thankful I have so many friends and family in my life to buy Christmas presents for-I'm lucky that every day is a new day and a chance to cross more things off my to-do list.

2. You're living! and having fun everyday with people you love. Who doesn't get tired? Suck it up. Stop whining.

3. These are just material items. I'm fortunate to have as many clothes that I do (even some with price tags still on them...gasp!) Chances are almost every other girl feels this way about someone else. Don't compare!

4. You're healthy enough to have the opportunity to work out -some people can't! Remember when you had knee problems and you couldn't work out or run for months and how GOOD it felt when you were finally able to? Never forget that. You'll feel great when it's over and it's time you make just for yourself!

5. You're not alone! You got 15 wonderful years with her. She has shaped you into the person you were meant to be and has made you stronger than you ever thought you were.

Can you relate to any of these thoughts?
How do you focus on the positive?


Well, my moral of the story is this-
Be thankful for everyday.
Be positive.
Every single day.

**If you need a little bit more to get your day going, this should give you a good laugh.
