Attitude of Gratitude #9

I am grateful for:

Zumba! 

Who cares that I'm the only guy (literally) that goes? I sure don't! At first it was a little uncomfortable, but now I just don't care. If the women have a problem with it, then they can go somewhere else. How's that for copping an attitude? I go to a studio in Rigby that is nice and big. Jodi Bozung is an amazing and energetic instructor. I tend to change some of the moves because she likes to shimmy a lot. I don't shimmy. Guys should never shimmy. Tonight I needed a good workout and Zumba with Jodi Bozung always produces that. 

 

Band-Aids

 The above picture is overkill. So, today at work I was doing freight and realized that my box knife was having a hard time cutting through plastic packing bubbles. Time to change the blade! I changed the blade and it was amazing how good it cut after that. Go figure. Well, I was cutting away at some packaging stuff and sliced my finger right next to the nail. Ouch! It wasn't a big cut but it was clean and deep. Thanks a lot, new blade of death! So today I am grateful for Band-Aids to keep the infection away from my cut. It hurts already. I'm a baby; I know.

 

Power Naps

When I got home after work I locked my door to my bedroom so I could change my clothes in peace (we've been watching my twin nephews and Gigi is always wanting to venture down to my room with me. I have no idea what is so special about my room). Sad that I've resorted to locking my door, but I needed some me time for a moment before I did the uncle/big brother thing. Next thing I know I'm sprawled on my bed and out like a light. It was so quick and deep and wonderful. Ahhh...Just what I needed to recharge my battery! Catnaps are my favorite!

 

P.S. I've noticed I've been grateful a lot for things that have to do with relaxing and sleeping. I'm not lazy. I promise. 

Attitude of Gratitude #6

Today I'm grateful for:

 Charmed

I've said it before, and I will say it again: I love Charmed! Don't judge. It's a great show, and I've watched the whole series several times. I used to be able to tell you exactly what season a given episode was from and the back story to how the characters got to where they were. Tonight I had the urge to watch it again and started on the Fourth Season which, in my opinion, is where the series gets really good. And, hey, ya can't really go wrong with three women who kick ass, wear skimpy clothes, and are also funny (at times). 

 

 Chocolate Chip Cookies

It's a Sunday tradition that I make chocolate chip cookies, and I do it pretty much every week. No matter how many times I make them I never tire of the deliciousness. 

 

Sunday Naps

I'll admit it: I'm spoiled. I usually take at least an hour nap every Sunday. My body is so attuned to it now that it's impossible to not do it now. And I have some pretty dang weird dreams when I nap. Today was no exception in that area. Sometimes they're weird enough I question my sanity and vow never to take a nap again, but that never works. So I will just continue with my Sunday nap ritual and worry about my sanity later.
