100 Blessings

talk about
Sometimes it's hard to count your blessings. We all need to remind ourselves of what's good in our lives. So here is Part One of of my own 100 blessings.

Want to count your blessings too? 100 Blessings spans over one month. Once a week, post 25 of your blessings — from life-changing to trivial — and link up in a comment! I'd love to read your lovelies. Feel free to use this banner in your Blessings posts too.


  1. I have a family who loves me
  2. I have a roof over my head
  3. most people are goodhearted and kind
  4. my cat is adorable when she sleeps
  5. I can read and write
  6. chocolate cake exists
  7. I have an amazing camera...
  8. ...and am blessed with the art of authorship
  9. my dad and I are creating an army of EvilMinions™ on notecards with only a pencil, and they are awesome
  10. I have this lovely computer to talk to you with
  11. hats can hide messy hair
  12. the world is big...
  13. ...but you can see it all in one lifetime if you try hard enough
  14. horses tolerate us humans and are man's real best friend
  15. feathers randomly fall from the sky and are a perfect gift to me
  16. butterflies like sitting on me
  17. electric fans are lovely on hot summer nights
  18. I can have cold, clear water whenever I like
  19. I have a lovely old armchair to snuggle in
  20. my mom is an amazing cook
  21. someone has deemed my graphic design worthy of purchase (my first buyer!)
  22. love is plentiful
  23. children's alphabet blocks are great to photograph
  24. I have 180 amazing Followers

    I like those :)

    I have a question, how on earth do you get a favicon uploaded? I cannot figure out how to get it uploaded. Thank you so much!

    (What's a favicon?-That thing that scrolls with your favorite blogs? I'd love one of those)

    Those are all wonderful reasons.

    I love this idea! I definitely want to try it but I know I'm way behind and I'm having trouble finding time to blog, but this is definitely something I need to work on so I'm going to try. I have a bad tendency to focus only on the negative, so this could be a really good exercise. I'll be back to work on this after work I promise. :)
