Day 33: A Whole New Attitude



Isn't it amazing what a difference a day can make to an attitude. Today, along with a sunshine day, the dawn brought with it a new attitude for me. Gone were the feelings of a despondent 15 year old, that the night had left me with. Instead, in its place was a feeling of hope and a bit of anxiousness when it was realized that both girls had outgrown their Spring cardigans and we had a baby shower in less than one hour!

Like this blooming flower above, my attitude was blossoming and proved to make way for a rather enjoyable day. Funny how that happens. It is much better to start the day in a positive manner, it just seems to continue the whole day through. We had a fabulous time feting my cousin and her soon to be daughter. Then we enjoyed the movie "Hop" immensely. It is really such a great movie and one I highly recommend!

After the shower and the movie, I was totally energized to tackle the trash on our front lawn. I really don't understand it. What possesses people to throw their trash out of their moving cars? We recovered a whole trash bag of other peoples disgusting trash from the lawn. Thankfully, we all wore gloves. It is a chore I hate to do, but one that we have to do because we end up looking like the slobs! So bye-bye winter's worth of trash. Hello, Spring!

Today was about renewal. And really isn't that what this project is all about? Me thinks this whole project has been one big winner and that it is not really a project that will stop at day 40. So buckle up and enjoy the next seven days because I have a few tricks up the proverbial sleeves.

Here's a great look behind the scenes of the remake of "I Want Candy." Enjoy!
