Days 25-27

I'm just going to put days 25 (yesterday) and 26 (today on here). Only because I missed so much time, and I don't feel like dealing with Facebook's many glitches on how it shows you you post more than one pic in an album within a 24 hour period...Moving on
Day 25 and 26 of the 365 Day Gratitude Challenge 7/26/16, & 7/27/16...Hopefully *fingers crossed* I can catch up in a timely fashion. If something changes between now and tonight before bed, I will post another pic.
Day 25
I know today is Wednesday, but it's part of my story to talk about Saturday.
On Saturday, I had to go to Macy's to go get something at the Clinique counter. My mom went along with me. The lady at the counter was like apply for a credit card and get 20% off on your purchase. I said alright. She went to reach for something and the sign holder that was made out of plexiglass fell and cut my mom's hand. The lady gave us all these free samples as a result.
One of them was a facial sunscreen. Well since I started using it, I noticed I was having an allergic reaction. My eyes were tearing up and it wouldn't stop. I thought it was allergies from outside, but as I was using the sunscreen this morning, it suddenly dawned on me. I can't use that kind of sunscreen on my face and this is why I use a baby formula...So it won't get into my eyes and sting me. I am grateful I realized that.
Yesterday was a long day, but I am grateful I got a break, making my shift only 10 hours, rather than 11 hours.
Today, I am grateful I realized I am allergic to any kind of sunscreen that isn't formulated for a baby! LOL.

Days 23 & 24

Day 23 of the 365 Day Gratitude Challenge.
Day 23
And here I thought I was ahead of the game. I caught up on blogs and I turned in mine early for once in a very long time....and here I go...forgetting to write up my daily challenge.
For Sunday, 7/24/16, I worked. And I trained someone. I basically spent my whole day talking to people.
I weighed myself and notice I'm about 4 pounds lighter. But it could be water. Ah, I don't know anymore. I'm trying not to think about it....okay, okay. Grateful things.
I'm grateful for challenges. I'm grateful for positive quotes to keep me motivated, I'm grateful for good friends, and I'm grateful for this life in general! :)

Day 24 of the 365 Day Gratitude Challenge. 7/25/16
Day 24
I had to go to bed early so I could get up and get ready for work. A functioning adult is not what I am. I am not capable of getting a routine down straight.
Most people, I'm guessing, get up and exercise. They make coffee, and shower while the coffee is brewing.
For me, I need time to gather my thoughts. I get dressed five minutes before having to leave the house.
Yesterday, I got news of meetings, and this irks me because it'll be getting in the way of my sleep time, which on Tuesdays is around 6:30-ish. My son said he will drive me to the meeting so I can sleep a bit. What a sweet, young man he's turned out to be.
I am grateful for my son! :)
