Today I am thankful for:
My friend Georgina, for putting me onto a great daycare lady (who I visited today, Ila starts there on Monday morning). 
My parents and friend Tracey, for checking up on me and making sure I am ok. 
My sense of humour not deserting me even when my smile has. 
A clean house. 
Baby food pouches - Ila can feed herself while I'm driving if needs must. 
Sunshine on a winter's day. 

Today I am thankful for: 
My parents for coming and spending time with me when I felt like no one was there. 
Ila, for napping, so I could finish the jacket I am making for her. 

Today I am thankful for: 
SUNSHINE!!! Not only will the vitamin D help lift my mood, hopefully we'll finally get some washing dry!
Weekends (need I say more?).
Flushable Nappy Liners (and modern reusable nappies).
Sewing machine inventors! And professional pattern makers.

Today I am thankful for my Mum. I just simply would not have made it through the day without her. Xx Love you Mum. 

Today I am thankful for:
Tim being just around the corner and being able to 'rescue' me from Ila's 2 hour screaming match.
The coffee group ladies - thanks for putting up with me being so precious. 
Mint Slice biccies, you are my chocolate fix for a bad day. 
GHD hair straighteners... alas the rain is not our friend. 
Instruction manuals (Louise, the overlocker's threading has come asunder - the sewing machine being Thelma, of course). 
Vacuum cleaners - how did people cope without them!? 

Today I am thankful for:
Sleep!
Sleep.
And more sleep (I have a cold).
Sunny weather to dry the washing in.
Tim, for mowing the lawns and cleaning my car.
Simple games like "this little piggie... " eliciting giggles from our sweet Ila Rose.

Today I am thankful for:
Not having to go to the A&E for my blood nose (managed to stem it after 30 minutes).
My husband and father's shared interest in motor mechanics.
Panadol (paracetamol).

Today I am thankful for: 
Having my husband back where he belongs. 
My husband mopping the floors without my asking him to do it. And putting the rubbish out when I had forgotten to. 
Mainly Music, for being my outlet to sing and dance in public and not look like a dick 'cause everyone else is doing it too. 
Op shops, for renewing my wardrobe on a budget I can afford. 
Facebook, for connecting me with friends I may otherwise not have reconnected with. 
Our beautiful daughter's mischievous smile. 
Rin, for witnessing Ila's passport. 
And Tim, for taking it into the Passport Office so we can finally take Ila to see her awesome Aunty Sarah, Uncle Simon and cuzzies Eden and Ruby. 

Today I am thankful for: 
Ila having another good sleep and being a chippa little cutie pie all day long. 
Mum for letting me have a bath and getting Ila off to bed without my help. 
My sewing machine and overlocker - which have become my 'therapy' (I feel self indulgent when I create). 
My friend Rin for visiting and reminding me that things have to get better eventually! 
The kitten cuddles I got (even if it was only because they were cold / wanted to be fed). 

Today I am thankful for:

Ila getting a decent sleep after 12 nights of coughing and wakefulness. 

My in-laws for looking after my husband so I can have a break. 

My coffee group ladies for enabling me to have some sanity time, and making me realise that I am, in fact, normal. 

The latest fashions being all the things I'm into right now (ruffles, big buttons, chiffon blouses and feminine 50's / 60's styles). 

Big winter coats. 

Having such a great family and wonderful friends. 

My 95 year old Nana who is still with us.
