The Month of Thanks.

November is often seen as a month to be thankful for what you have, and to count your blessings.  I have often wondered why only one day, week, or month.  Shouldn't we be thankful every day.  In reading some of the blogs that I have been following I came across a couple of challenges that I think will help me. 
The last couple of weeks, heck the last couple of months, have been filled with ups and downs on many levels, both professional and personal ones.  I realize that I am letting life pass me by because I am to upset about the negatives.  As life does not have a habit of becoming easier, and they say you are not handed more than you can handle, I can only assume that the universe is trying to teach me a lesson.  The lesson to be learned is to allow the positives to have more weight than the negatives in my life.

The first challenge I am going to do is the30 day to a Better Mom challenge from the iMOM site.

The second challenge is the 30 day to a better Wife challenge also from the iMOM site.

The final challenge is a year long challenge, the Abundant Mom Challenge.  This one is from the awesomely awake blog. The awesomely awake site is one I have found a lot of insight and encouragement from.

As time goes by I will share some of these challenges on my blog, others I will use jsut to become a better wife, a better mom, a better ME.  Regardless, I encourage you to check them out and see if just maybe they might help you become a better you.
