post insanity workout.
thankful for the ability to work out.
1. Who do I appreciate? my husband who is steadfast. my family who is always there for me. those few friends in my life that are not afraid to tell me the truth, even though it may sting. those here in our new home who have loved on us with open arms.
2. How am I blessed? i have incredible health. i wake up each & every day with a new start. grace & mercy abound in my life. i have an incredible family. my hubs, it is unreal how perfect he is for me.
3. What material possessions am I thankful for? my mac book. our car. a roof over our heads with A/C. a cozy, comfy, warm bed. 
4. What abilities do I have that I'm grateful for? my compassion for people. it allows me to connect with people quickly. the ability to truly let go & let God. being poor newlyweds has been such an adventure.

8. What opportunities do I have that I am thankful for? working at my high school. i can not fully explain how much i love what i do & love the athletes i work with there. also the opportunity to have my own business & through it make women feel beautiful!
9. What have others in my life done that I am thankful for? put up with me! but really. i guess just continued to be by my side through thick & thin. being forgiving continually. giving when we need it.
10. What relationships am I thankful for? my relationship with my husband. my mama, papi, josh, jas. the girls i went to college with. my high school besties. the clover family. the bates tribe.  those that are growing continually here in california.
11. What is different today than it was a year ago that I'm thankful for? our life here in california. we are not as homesick & i am so thankful for that. it was a very hard first few months here. it is nice to feel settled.....but to know in another year we could be anywhere else!!!
