It’s day 2 of the series I started yesterday. I’m still not sure if I will keep posting every day on here but for now it gives me something to get my writing going as I am still new to this whole blogging and journaling thing… Day 2′s theme is to think of three aspects of your body you are thankful for and thank them for what they do for you. While I don’t advocate talking to oneself, since I am technically just typing, that does not count, right?? 
Thank you:
- to my Bones for never breaking! I can happily say, despite all the falls I have taken and the other random things I have done as I am quite clumsy (Read: take a complete hip first dive on the sidewalk while trying to get to Body Pump…), I have yet to seriously hurt myself (knock on wood)
- to my Eyes for allowing me to see where I am going and also be able to look back to where I have been. Another passion of mine is photography and without my eyes, this would not be possible. I don’t necessarily love that I need glasses or contacts on to see these things but you know, I’ll take what I can get!
- to my Legs for carrying me through each and every day and for allowing me to run! I often tend to find fault in my legs for some reason or another, but the truth is, I want to keep them! They might be big and they might not always look so great in shorts or a skirt but they are STRONG! And they can squat, lunge and run with the best of them!
It actually was surprisingly easy to find three things about myself I am thankful for! And these legs also allowed me to attempt to clean up the backyard today, that I wish my eyes did not have to witness! The yard is embarrassingly over grown and soooo weedy! When I bought my house two years ago, it was really disgusting and it is only slightly better now after the many days we have spent weeding and trying to reclaim the yard over the past two years 
So even though today is a cross training/rest day in my training plan, I think between yard work, and a Tae-Bo DVD that my sister and I did earlier this morning and maybe a yoga session and barefoot block walk with the pup later this afternoon, I will be exhausted by the end of this weekend! But I already know this week is going to be much better than last week because I am not gonna let it go any other way! (Although the Sister is leaving me for her first business trip so it might get a little lonely around here, later this week 
)

Here’s to wishing every day was a weekend!
Crosby would like that bone! Oh wait, this post isn’t about him?!?! You should really be thankful for your legs so you can take the little guy for walks every day – he doesn’t care whether or not you can run haha.
Well, I guess I am thankful for my arms to holdel him all the days!
Even when they’re sore from trimming the honka honka burnin bushes outside?!
Yup, even then! Although I can’t get down the riz kuker!
Yay for participating in the series! It can get to be a lot to do every day so I understand if you don’t blog about the topics every day.
Regardless, I loved reading your thoughts! Those are 3 things I would choose as well. Love having strong legs. Have a great night!
I really could not have found this series at a better time, so Thank you! I am excited to see what the next 28 days have in store!
