Trusting my gut, the sun, dirt

1. Sometimes I get involved with something that seems like it was a good idea at first, and then I get this subtle feeling that whatever I got involved in isn't right for me. When I don't listen to that little voice, it grows stronger. I recently found myself in a situation where the voice grew louder and louder, telling me to back out of a project I was working on with someone and I still wouldn't listen to it. Then, as if the universe had had enough of my turning away from my gut, it sent me an email that was the final catalyst to get me moving in the direction that I needed to go (which was away from the project), and I emailed the person letting them know I was bowing out. As soon as I hit send, I'd never been more relaxed and relieved than since before I said I'd take the project on... and that's how I knew it was the right decision for me. I am thankful that I didn't wait to long and that I got out of it before it had really even started, and I am incredibly grateful for that little voice in my gut that is always there to keep me in check.

2. This weekend was absolutely beautiful outside and the sun was out in full force for the first time in a loooooong time. I am so thankful for the beautiful weekend we had!

3. This weekend was also the first time that the weather has been good enough to go out and work in the yard. Since I've been unable to do much on the computer, I tried my wrist out in the garden and miraculously, I had no pain. So it seems that my carpal tunnel only really hurts me when I'm on my computer. I was able to dig up plants ad move them around, and haul bags of dirt and get all dirty because of it - which I love! I am so grateful that my wrist hasn't stopped me from getting outside and digging in the dirt!

What are YOU thankful for?
