30 Thankful Days (Gratitude journal)

Happy post-election day.

Anyone else stay up too late to watch President Obama give his acceptance speech? I just had to see it live.

I'm grateful to be off work today. Speaking of gratitude, have you seen all those great projects/journals focusing on what you are grateful for?

Anyways, I spotted this one last week on Cathy Zielske's blog. I love the ideas of taking of month to think daily about what I am thankful for. I totally want need to do this. You know, to keep my whining twin at bay.

So, last week I headed out to the scrapbook store to buy supplies. Then I thought, wait, don't I already have a ton of supplies in my home? Why, yes, I do. So rather than buying lots of fall colored paper and a new binder/album, I'm going to use what I already have.

Now, true to form, I am running behind schedule. I mean, it is already the 7th of the month. But that won't stop me. I have been taking photos this week in anticipation of getting my act together and creating a gratitude journal. I even picked out paper and cut them down to 6x6 inches. So I'm super close to getting this party started.

Come back tomorrow for photos of the "bones" of the project. Who knows, maybe I'll even have a few pages done. But don't count on it. I'm highly unpredictable!

And there is even time for you to jump up and join in! Come on. You know you want to!
