Three gratefuls

I've got to admit, it took me a while to come up with two and even more so coming up with three things or events that I'm grateful for. For this past week, I am grateful of the following:

1. Spending some good bonding time with my coworkers and getting to know them a bit better. It's definitely nice breaking down barriers with people you begin to trust. For me, it takes me a long while to trust others, but I'm very much liking the comfortable relationship that's forming between me and my coworkers.

2. I got my credit card bill in the mail this past week and I am incredibly pleased (and relieved) that it's more than half of what it was last month. And also closer to what I ideally want to be spending a month. This is all part of my new year's resolution to watch my spending a bit more. I'm glad to see that it's working out pretty well so far.

3. This one was really a toughie to come up with and I almost feel like it's a throwaway because I couldn't think of anything better. With all the stress that's going on at work, I am grateful that I made it to the gym three times this week. I always feel like in the wintertime I don't do enough exercising, but I'm grateful I pushed myself to get out and destress through rigorous exercise.
