Lots of reasons to be happy there. It's great to hear you managing to reduce your tablets. I know it's only though your blog etc but I think your doing a great job of being a mum.
Oh and well done for tacking AtoZ again. I want to one of these years but can't commit to blogging every day at the moment. Too much else going on.
Everyone should make a list like this at least once a year. It really gets us to focus on the many good things in life. Surprised and pleased to see your mention of pen pals - I didn't think anyone did that anymore. I had 1 in Germany and 1 in South Africa when I was a kid, and we exchanged letters for several years. I wish that they had kept up with the correspondence, but they both faded away during our high school years.
What a stunning list! I love some of the little things in there. I really hope you enjoy the hen do, it will help your anxiety loads xxx
A lot of good reasons to be happy. A refreshing breaker from my blog where I find something to rant about every week. LOL Light-heartedly of course.
Thanks it's been up and down! I tried the challenge last year and only got to C! But this year I'm enjoying it :) x
Thanks Jo! Xx
Ah but yours is a good read! I can see how mine would be break though ha!
Oh I love my pen pals I have about 8-9 I think some quicker than others to write so a great mix to be honest. Thanks for visiting!
