Three good things – day 3

It’s been hard tonight to think of my three good things. On paper, today should have been good and a couple of good things popped right into my head, but I generally feel a little off today – too much news of the depressing kind (illness and the like) to make me feel happy really.

• Catching up and hearing all the gossip (of the non-malicious kind!). It’s always good to reconnect and feel a bit more involved in something again, which is why this made me happy.
• Discovering a shop that was a complete treasure trove – I’ll definitely be returning! I’d been pretty sceptical about making the trip out to this shop but then it surpassed all my expectations. I guess it is a lesson in not judging a book by its cover, or a shop by its location.
• That Baby E does not seem to be suffering as much with his teething as Little O did. When I think about this it does, of course, make me happy, but I only thought about this as I went through my day in my head, struggling to find a third thing to be grateful for. So it is a bit of a forced good thing really. Does that still count?

So, my three good things for today. The first two days were certainly easier than today; I think I still have quite a way to go before I start thinking more positively as a natural occurrence. But bring it on!
