Yesterday was such a busy mommy and son day and I wasn’t able to sit down and catch my breath let alone write what I am grateful for. So I’ll combine two grateful thought’s into today’s post.
Day 2 of 30 Days of Gratitude: I’m grateful for memories. The good and the bad. I was pushing Asher in his stroller down a sidewalk in our neighborhood and realized that this was one of the favorite places I would walk my dog Pacey. Pacey loved this stretch of our walk and would eagerly pull the leash to smell (and mark) all of the bushes on the right. Pacey has been gone for two months now and walking here with Asher made my heart hurt. But even as I hurt, I was thankful for the time I had with Pacey and for the memories I have of him.
Day 3 of 30 Days of Gratitude: I’m grateful for the cooler weather. Living in Florida, my favorite time of the year is right now. The humidity finally starts to disappear and we can open the windows and let fresh air in the house. I can also go run a few miles and not return to the house feeling totally dehydrated. Cooler weather also makes me want to make homemade soup or chili and hunker down with the family under a blanket as we watch old movies. I’m hoping this cooler weather stays for good!

Thanks for coming to Addicted to Saving! Here’s a little bit about me so you can know who’s behind all these posts!
My name is Liza and I began my money-saving journey in the Spring of 2009 as a way to stretch a limited household income. I had lost my job and my hubby was self-employed. I launched Addicted to Saving in November of 2009 and it has grown by leaps and bounds. Since then, my hubby and I have struggled with the ups and downs of two failed adoptions and are now LOVING being parents to our little man Asher who we brought home from Ethiopia in August of 2013. I feel incredibly blessed to be able to help you save money. My goal is that you will have FUN and become empowered to save more and more money each week..
Amen to the cooler weather here in Florida! It’s 77 & breezy today – just perfect! :
I am grateful for the beautiful fall leaves. We just made a trip to Desoto Falls and Little River Canyon in Alabama, and the leaves were really at peak. It was just gorgeous! Thank you, God!
Bike rides, eating on the porch, windows wide open – loving fall in Florida.
