Challenge: Day 30 (Last Day)... and a few other thoughts.

Today, as a final nice thing, I'm thinking of spending the day in bed.  A nice thing for me.  It's kind of too late to spend the whole day actually IN BED, but I can spend the day in my jammies and read all day.  Or watch movies.  Or knit.  It sounds lovely. 

I've learned a few things during this challenge--as stated below:

1.  If you do nice things on a regular basis, it's difficult to think of "special" nice things to do every day.  I think I'll stick to doing regular nice things every day, and just do something super-duper nice when the opportunity comes up.

2.  Some days you just have to give yourself a break.  

3.  It really did make me feel good to be doing all those nice things.  It was worth doing.  

4.  I didn't tell other people (except on this blog) that I was doing this, and if I ever do this again, I will tell everyone I know.  It didn't really occur to me until a couple of weeks into it that I decided to do it after someone else did something nice for someone, inspiring me to do the same.  If I had told everyone, I might have started a revolution of nice things.  You live, you learn.

I didn't go out and work in the garden this morning, so I will have to get out there tonight or tomorrow when I get home from work, I guess.  I woke up with a sore throat and didn't really sleep well last night, so I've been lazing around all morning.

It seems to be cooling off a little outside, which is nice because the electric bill has been a little crazy the last couple of months.  Also, it will be nice to be able to work in the garden other than very early in the morning and very late in the evening.  That gets tedious. 

I've been pinning things like crazy on Pinterest this weekend--looking for nice gift ideas for Christmas, and especially good ideas for my classroom.  We have a lot going on this week in my class.  A firetruck is coming to visit on Wednesday, and on Friday, we are having Ms. Spider's Tea Party.  Those will both be a lot of fun.

What the heck did we all do with our time before we had the internet?   

I'm also looking forward to my son Brett coming home next week(ish) to spend some time before he gets stationed in Japan.  He's in the navy and I miss him a lot.  I wish all of my kids could live close by.  

Well, that's my Sunday update.  I hope everyone has a great day.  Does anyone want to share what they do on Sundays?
