Day 139: Confidence Boosts

Today, I am grateful for:

• finally having the dog attack/court fiasco over with. We went to trial this morning and won, and now it's all over with. Thank goodness.
• having my aunt's name for what will probably her last Christmas. My mom's side of the family draws names, and then everyone has one person to get an awesome gift for. I love my aunt, so I was excited to get her name no matter what, but now it's even more special. I found a fabulous gift while in Philadelphia, and I'm mailing it tomorrow. I'm really excited but so emotional.
• having the guts to ask a tougher question that I feel like I need to know the answer to.
• realizing that some of my clothes actually look better with the weight I've gained. I put on a sweater after court today that I used to wear to work. And I think it looks a lot better than it used to. My silver shift dress feels the same way. As much as I want to lose some weight/tone up, it's nice to know that I have outfits to pull out on those days that I need a little confidence boost.
• being checked out by someone I was checking out. That was a nice little confidence boost too.
