4. Friends. IRL and the internet.

5. Music with healing lyrics.

6. My siblings.

7. My run group.

Thanks for posting @keikilove I do love this weekly reminder to stop and think about what's going well in our lives, even when that's hard.

1. MH being proactive and anxious to move on to the RE/IF journey
2. TTGP, for now and forever
3. Internet friendships
4. My single bestie, for telling me that when we have girls' lunch this weekend she'll steer the convo away from LOs and pregnancy in general any time she can for me.
5. Living just outside a major city, so I have amazing access to medical care
6. My dog, despite another 3am wakeup call
7. Iced green tea
8. Sugar free chocolate (the ONLY way I can stay keto is that I'm able to have an occasional treat!)
9. Crafting, it gives me such an outlet
10. This is probably going to seem odd, but common sense. I'm grateful that I am a person who largely is sensible and not prone to dreams without action plans.

hanshotfirst77 · September 2019

1. My mom who has been my biggest supporter.
2. My dog who is my best friend.
3. My Bump friends

4. IRL friends too.
5. Coffee. Even though I switched to decaf and cut way back. I still have that one beautiful cup every morning.
6. Dark chocolate.
7. My RE who is just the best and always so supportive and funny.
8. My new house which I am loving turning into my new home.
9. My job that allows me to work from home.
10. Star Wars cause it's my happy place.

@tyrion_ Happy early birthday friend! Also, LOL @ #1 (and subsequently # 8, even tho bras are the worst)

1. MH, always and forever my #1
2. My bumpies, even tho I ghost you half the time, thank you for always welcoming me back and for having my back

3. Our home, our safe place, and the meeting place for our friends and family.
4. The ability to travel (as we prepare to leave for Hawaii on our 16 day honeymoon on Thursday)
5. Rice. The featured carb of the week.
6. Lactaid, for allowing me to eat dairy because I'll be damned in lactose intolerance takes cheese away from me.
7. My menstrual cup. I never want to see another tampon in my life.
8. Calculators. I work in financial services but I can't do mental math to save my life.
9. Access to clean water. All previous joking aside, this is a big one.
10. "Free" healthcare in Canada. We are very fortunate to have so many things covered that we often take for granted, and especially going through IF and all the doctors visits, it makes a difference.

1. That I can afford the vet appointment I need to take my senior kitty to AGAIN on Friday (third URI this year).
2. That my job is so flexible about working from home.
3. That my work has Peloton bikes free for us to use, because it's seriously saving my sanity since I had to stop running.
4. That we were able to buy this house.
5. DH's parents and especially their help with buying this house.
6. That my garden gave me so many awesome veggies this summer.
7. My husband is awesome in so many ways
8. That pumpkin spice everything is back to bring me cheer
9. That we got SOME fall weather...it'll be back soon
10. All of my & my family's needs are met.

tyrion_ · September 2019

@saladflambe That’s so cool about access to peloton bikes!

saladflambe · September 2019

@tyrion_ it's the best!

@kiki047 I LOVE my diva cup and I will never go back. Whenever I speak to women about periods I always tell them that they need to get one. There was an adjustment period for me, but once I figured it out it was great! And enjoy your honeymoon! 16 days away in Hawaii sounds heavenly!
@tyrion_ happy early birthday! Do you have any fun plans?
1. Today was actually a great day at work. My programs are almost done spending down their money.
2. I’m happy that we are on a plan that is working to get rid of debt and save to move next fall.
3. Even though I did not get into a mid-level leadership program, I’m kind of happy that I did not. I’m working with a newish program and I want to give them my full attention. Plus I need to train/mentor the person who is taking over my old program.
4. I’m loving the “fall” weather we having. It’s still in the high 80’d at time, but the humidity is gone so it’s beautiful outside
5. I’m proud of myself for sitting to my work outs and eating well. I finally got over my plateau
6. (The best one) I’m happy to proven that my husband was wrong at something. He is typically right, but I do got him today. It felt great.
7. My coworker is the best. He’s so handy and I go to him to all the home repair advice. We have a slow leaking pipe (yay 😔) and I think I’m going to involve the insurance company. Our home is 30 years old. I’m sure they need to be looked at closely. I’m still weighing our options
8. For my one girlfriend that is always honest with me no matter how “bad” it may be. I always say if you can’t be brutally honest with someone are they truly your best friend?
9. My SMIL lives with us and she is so helpful around the house. I tell her all of the time she doesn’t have to do anything, but she does it anyways.
10. Overall, this has been a great second half of the year and it makes me really look forward to the future.

tyrion_ · September 2019

@ziggymama06 and @blackgirlmagic, no special plans tomorrow. I’m hoping to get a good workout in and then maybe go out to dinner. Definitely want to get a bundt cake, though.

swizzlemalarkey · September 2019

@tyrion_ happy birthday!!!

I’ve been having a string of bad luck the past few days so I wanted to do this to think of what I’m thankful for, even though it’s wednesday now.

1. My H, we drive each other nuts and have things to work on but he just got a second job and handles the finances since it tends to stress me out.
2. My dogs, even with them being major twatwaffles right now.
3. That I work somewhere where I can get free food, cuts down on groceries a lot.
4. Our house, thankful we are able to have a bigger place with a yard.
5. The sunny weather outside.
6. Target
7. Work friends that become real friends
8. I got to be on a podcast last night.
9. I close tonight and then have the next two days off. Also only scheduled for 40 hours this week.
10. And last but not least, everyone on TTGP
