gratitude challenge: day 12

Today, make the effort to live life with a positive outlook. Restrain from criticizing the people around you. Dare to see the glass half full. Listen more than you speak. Give freely of yourself. Practice kindness at every opportunity.

wow, this is really hard for me. harder than it should be. well, the positive outlook part.

right now i'm concentrating on being excited about the holidays, and looking forward to moving to colorado and on with our lives.

i am trying really hard to not hate my job. well, i still hate it, a lot, but i'm trying to focus on making a bigger bonus so i at least can do fun things with the extra money. i'm also a little bit planning how quickly i can quit.

also, i am trying to work on trusting louie more. i think it's going to be awhile but i'm really working on it. i feel guilty when i expect him to do something bad, and it shouldn't be that way. i shouldn't expect it, and it doesn't speak well of our relationship that i sometimes seem to spend half of my time angry and the other half feeling guilty. it's getting a lot better though. i just hope it lasts this time.
