A few of my friends and I meet together every week to set goals. The goals are personal but we account to each other and if we miss a goal, we owe five dollars. Not much money but it surprises me how well it works as an incentive to keep my goals. In addition to our own three goals, one person gives a 'bonus' goal that we can either shoot for or not (no money owed either way). This week, it was to write down three things a day that we are grateful for. It's been interesting because in some ways this was really hard. I have much to be grateful for - but articulating that can be difficult - at least to write down. I think part of the reason it was difficult was because I had to narrow things down. People in my life could fill many many gratitude journals - I have been truly blessed by the people placed around me. So, if you're reading this (or even if you're not;), know that you are a person for whom I feel mucho gratitudo...
We had our annual neighborhood flashlight Easter egg hunt last week - now one of our favorite Spring events.
D-Man with someone who would top his gratitude journal. These two are true soul brothers.
The girls had to bundle up a bit but it was all worth it in the end.
My good friend Andrea was telling the crowd that she had a bull horn and she knew how to use it. I'm still not sure what that meant...
