Gratitude journaling together

  1. My birthday trip to a museum yesterday with Lisa and a friend was fun. We went to the Royal Armouries and we had a shot at the crossbow range. I did okay!
  2. Was able to pick up the new book in a series I’m reading. Whew.
  3. Lisa’s making enough of a fuss of my birthday to even bother wrapping my presents. It’s been a while since people did that for me.

(Birthday isn’t until Tuesday, but today’s when Lisa has time to wrap and yesterday was when the three of us were free to meet up. :sweat_smile:)

We have one of these! They’re brilliant, and it’s hard to resist labelling everything in sight! (the cats seem to take exception, though…)
