On Being Thankful

Today is Thankful Thursday and I am so thankful that I GET to work on the things that I love in my studio.

Filling my life up with the phrase "I GET to" rather than "I have to" is a game changer - whether it's "I get to work on this piece today" vs "I have to finish this up today or I'll never get through my WIPs!" Or it's "I get to go to the gym today" rather than "ugh, I have to go workout" or "I get to go be creative in the kitchen now" instead of "Rats, I have to stop sewing and figure out what's for dinner now" or whatever else it is that I *get* to do!

The past few years have been years of gratitude and I am thankful I get to continue that in 2022.
