4 Gs for Yesterday 6/8, Wednesday
1. Grateful: I’m grateful I spent some time preparing food that was good for me instead of eating food that the neighbor brought over that wasn’t. Besides, the food was really brought over for my husband, in consideration of him having surgery. He’s enjoying it. I’m enjoying being a size 10.
2. Good Thing That Happened: My annual evaluation went very well at work, with high marks.
3. Glitches: I forgot to do a task that a VP asked me to do.
4. Goals:
a. Make amends to a VP at work and do what they asked me to do.
b. Buy myself something on the Internet with the gift certificate my daughter gave me for Mother’s Day.
c. Enjoy an hour of TV
