what feels like years later...

Helllooooo again internet world. I've perused on a daily basis since May 31, 2010 (the date of the last entry), but haven't felt the urge to write anything. Whoooa! It's October 31 - exactly 5 months later - spooooky! Mostly because these blogs were intended as a way for Katie B, Anita, and myself to keep up with each others' lives...but that has since waned, and I think all three of us have been caught up in our own lives so much that we haven't even had much time for a simple phone call, or text message even.

I see this as a great thing. I've been living a great life, enjoying drives up the California coast, Bob Dylan concerts, Vegas trips, several friends and family visits...not to mention living about five blocks from the Pacific ocean. This is what my life looks like.

Today in my Cafe Gratitude questions of the day, I was to ask myself:

"What are you grateful for?"

Which is the most PERFECT question because I've been wanting to start some kind of a gratitude journal-type-deal. I've read that if you write down 5 things you're grateful for every day for at least a month, it will change your life. So I'm ready for my life to be changed, starting today!

  1. cucumbers and hummus
  2. my pedometer tracking my steps
  3. ridiculously comfy USC sweatshirt
  4. Detoxifying myself
  5. pictures drawn by friends to cheer me up


Happy Halloween!!
