Thankful Thursday Three
On this sunny Thursday, I’m thankful for…
1) My parents’ lemon tree. Fresh, free, organic lemons all year long! It’s in full growing mode right now, which is great because I’m on a big lemon water kick.
2) Lunch breaks on days I work from home. Warm food rather than something that’s smushed and has been sitting in the fridge for hours. A magazine. The couch rather than my desk. Ahhhh
3) Lunch dates when I work from home. This guy is better than people magazine (duh) and makes lunch dates at home my favorite, especially when he cuddles.
And so much more. This week especially, I’m also grateful for forgiveness, to-do lists, meter maids that seem to skip my neighborhood, fluffy pillows, inspirational quotes, and patience.
–What are you thankful for today?
–Had any lunch dates lately? Do you usually eat lunch by yourself or with someone?
–Lemon water- yay or nay?

I have a lunch date a couple of days a week which is a nice change, but often eat at my desk, although I avoid staring at my screen at the same time. I think a lunch break with a cute dog would be pretty cool, too
!
Today I’m thankful I hauled my sorry ass to bootcamp and had a blast.
