Hi All,
So today was an ordinary day…till i really sat down and thought about it.  Today i went grocery shopping.  Not a big deal right?  Well, when i think about the shopping i used to do, compared with what i bought today, there is a massive difference. 
How fantastic to be able to walk down the aisles and grab whatever i wanted.  To not have a list with 10 things on it, and even then to be looking for something cheaper, to be able to buy decent meat, not just mince, mince, mince.  I can do a million things with mince.
To buy treats for the kids, fruit regardless of the cost, my god it was nice. 
Who would have thought that something as everyday as grocery shopping could be so uplifting!!! 
So my ordinary day became something extraordinary, when i really stopped and thought about what i would have  bought only 4 months ago.  The cupboards and the freezer are full.  There is money left in my purse for the week,  4 months ago this would never have happened. 
Another gamble free day has come and gone for me, i can look at today and be happy.  Now, if only i could decide what im going to eat………
Have a great day everyone, bye for now, Kathryn xxFighting the good fight…One day at a time
