That's it! 365 days of being thankful. Even though I didn't get to blog on the day every single day. I was always thinking about being thankful and that was half of what this was even for. Thank you to those who followed me! And for those who could careless, thank you for at least looking :) Maybe one day I'll be a professional blogger....but prolly not. It's been nice knowing you for a year! Maybe see you again soon. Bon voyage! :)

Day 365

Last but not least the thing that helped me most keep a blog was a checklist. I would go through and write down how many weeks were in a season(I did mine by seaons :)) and then I would write down different interesting topics from that season. Then I would write out weekly what I would blog about. It made my life easier. I tried to just come up with something everyday but after a while you forget what you've said and start re using things and stuff like that. So my lists made it soooo much easier! I am so thankful for them!! :)

Day 364

Today I will remind you to make blogging fun and interesting. If it's not a topic that you find interesting then, trust me, you won't enjoy it. And if it's not fun for you, you won't do it. I had times where I didn't make it fun, it was more like a chore and I didn't do it sometimes. So it is worth it to make it interesting and fun! And I'm thankful that I did and found some topics that were for me :)

Day363

Something else that made me able to do it everyday(almost ;)) Was that I made it quick. Some days it doesn't really matter but then there are others where I only have a few minutes and throwing something together was very easy. It saved me a lot of times! :)

Day 362

The last days of the blog. These are sad, yet happy! :) This next four days I am going to write about how I kept from totally blowing off this blogging and why I am thankful for them. I had to keep in mind to not stress. It was easy to at times and when I did I had to remember not to. I am thankful for that becuase it would have been a killer to be stressing all of the time over something that, well lets face it, it's important at all. It's just something I'd like to check off my list :) So not letting it get to me made the experience alot more enjoyable :)

Day 361

Go wear your mans clothes! :) One thing that I have done since day one is wear his clothes. They smell like him and make me feel closer to him when he's so far away :( I don't know what I would do without his clothes. They are really comfy too! Guys clothes are so much nicer than girls!! haha :) I am thankful for his clothes :)

Day 360

So, today is talk about him. This one is tricky, yet very needed! At first that is ALL you will talk about. Every single converstaion will go back to him in one way or another. Now, this is normal, but make sure you are either 1) talking to people who REALLY love you or 2) talking to a whole bunch of different people. I had/have like 10 different people that I just will chat with and I can bring up the same point 10 different times. That's so nice! And even though it's been a little while now I still do that sometimes. You just have to find a time and place for it, even though it comes no naturally. Talk about him. If people get annoyed with you, they weren't true friends to begin with because they will understand that you are hurting. Just try not to totally drive them nuts, after all, they are still your buds and deserve some of your mind :) I am so thankful to be able to talk about him!!

Day 359

Today is writting! I am so thankful for mail and I never have been before in my life lol It's amazing how much your life revolves around the mail once you have someone in bootcamp. Writting him is another way to let it all get out and to him much quicker so that he knows what's going on. Of course compared to a phone call or text it seems to take years, but at least it does(usually) get to him! :) I couldn't live without being able to write and send him letters :)

Day 358

Today I am thankful for being able to make him videos. When I feel like I have no one to talk to or so upset I can make a video for him to watch later. I made one the other day when I was really upset. I was able to tell him exactly how I felt and cry and laugh and know that one day he will be able to watch it and share those feelings with me. It's a great release and he'll want to know exactly how you were feeling :)

Day 357

Since right now I am going through a time where my man has joined the military and I have to try and stay sane without him I am going to make a list of five things that get me through each and every day. And really these are all so equally important that there is no real order. What I am most thankful for today is making him things. Later today I am going to the store to buy a deck of cards because I saw the cutest idea to write 52 things that you love about him on each card. This will help me remember him and appreciate him even more and when he gets back he will LOVE to see that! Then he'll know I really was thinking of him.http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/2INfPB/emmalinebride.com/gifts/diy-52-things-i-love-about-you/

Day356

Last but certainly not least, my favorite thing about a wedding gown is the lace/open back. Back in the day this would have probably been looked down upon if you wore a dress like this. I am so thankful that's not the case now!! :) This is so extreamly ellegant and absolutely beautiful! I am so so so thankful for this detail on a wedding dress!

Day 355

Today I am in love with lace sleeves :) Well, everyday actually lol Lace sleeves are details that aren't way out there, but when you do them right they are so unique and gorgeous! :) Lace sleeves add a little special something to the dress :) I am thankful for them!
