This week’s Thimble List

Emily

I’m going to try to make creating a Thimble List a weekly thing here at the blog.  I hope you will too.  If you aren’t familiar with a Thimble List, I blogged about it here.

Simple things to do this week that make me happy….

1.  Ride my bicycle almost every day.

2. Fit art/painting into my schedule just for practice.

3. Try some new recipes for healthy, low calorie meals

4.  Visit the library and find some great books.

5.  Start reading a new novel.

6.  Shop at Trader Joe’s for some good organic food.

7.  Spend time with a couple girlfriends for good conversation, laughter and togetherness.

What’s on your thimble list for this week?  If you don’t have one, I suggest you consider writing one…it’s good to make lists!
