My goals for 2024 are going to be simple. I still want to read great books, and do great things that challenge me, but I also want to live and give my self grace.
Dreams:
1. I am thankful today for the free Indian food that I got by going to work.

I hope everyone is happy with their life. I can tell you I am really satisfied with how my life is going right now. In fact I am thankful for:
1. Good friends coming over and spending time
2. My husband cooking and cleaning house before friends came over.
3. I was able to find candy on my walk two days in a row.
4. After paying bills, we still have money left over.
5. I have a job that I enjoy and that fulfills me.

Today is a great day! I want to give a list of things I am thankful for my thriftiness in the following areas:
Today I am sooooo thankful that I made a lot of my dinners on Sunday. This week I will be enjoying:
Breakfast:
Quiche and if I get tired of Quiche (which I won't, I can have bacon and eggs)
Lunch/Dinner:
This will be either the chicken I smoked, Vegetable Beef Stew, or Steak Enchiladas or any of the left over food from last week! So excited that all of this food is already prespared.

I have heard a lot about blogs creating a Thankful Thursday or a Market Monday (what they bought at the market) and thought I would give it a try. While I am too late for Thursday, I still would like to mention some of the things that I am thankful for today (or that give me satisfaction). Such as:
1. Teaching ESOL to my students who do such a good job.
2. Exercising by walking-
3. Losing weight even though I don't really feel deprived.
4. My paycheck covers all of our bills.
5. My husband is in school and is doing so well.
6. cooking meals ahead of time and eating the leftovers
7. My job.
I have heard it said that not all heroes wear capes. Some people in the financial independence space are my heroes. People like Mr. 1500 days and MMM. These pioneers detailed what was needed to try to become financially independent.
Because of them and people like them (Here is looking at you Dave Ramsey) we paid off all of our debt (except the house) years ago and worked at building a savings account that could handle an emergency.

Dreams:
This last week has been nothing but tack, learning, and trying to figure out how I got so many bruises!! While I was able to pass the written portion, the man overboard drills helped me to fail the practical portion of the test.
I heard about this book Outlive: The Science and Art of Longevity and so after buying it with a gift card, I sat down to read it. I am only 17% in and it (and some medical issues) has me dying to read more. I love the way that the author explains all of the information so that a layperson can understand it, but high enough that it causes one to think about everything. I am off to read more so pick it up and enjoy.

My puppy (well he is over 11) has cancer in his toe and it needs to be amputated. My husband and I had started shortening his walks to make him feel better. This last week, I took him out for his two miles and he didn't seem to be affected by it at all.

Dreams:
I started feeling bleh starting on Wednesday night. Thursday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday are a blur. If there was a ball dropping, I wasn't aware (not that I would stay up anyway).
I will say that today I was able to cook my breakfast and lunch and that should cover the next few days.
Here is hoping I will wake up tomorrow.
