100 Things: #001

[4am_secret]

macfrosty is doing this, and it looks like a great incentive to post :) I thought about using her idea, which is "100 Things That Have Shaped Me", but today was a really nice day in many ways, and I'm feeling better about life than I have in a very, very long time. I don't know how long it will last, but I've decided to make my theme:

"100 Things That Make Me Feel Better About The World"

Starting with:



Gardening!

I have never gardened before, but today I bought some zucchini seeds and planted them with my mom :) This spring/summer, I'm going to help her around the yard and she's going to teach me how to properly garden. I'm excited about it! I'm going to buy more seeds and hopefully grow a lot of veggies to add to my diet this summer. It felt so great to spend time out in the sun, and I will really enjoy having things to care for <3

(Btw, my credit union charged me not one, but TWO fees for my issues while shopping on Sunday. I emailed them and they refunded me one charge, but wouldn't refund the other. Sucks, but today was so wonderful that I can't even bring myself to care.)

I knew you would pick something cool. *grins* Gardening is something I've grown to enjoy in adulthood, but I'm more into flower gardens myself.

Looking forward to your posts!

Right now, I'm still deciding what I want my topic to be, but I really want to do this. :)

We have lots of flowers, too! :) I just really want to do veggies since it'll hopefully save me some money for food, haha.

I hope you do! I've been enjoying everyone's posts that have started to do this, and I think you would probably come up with something pretty awesome <333 Maybe the key is to keep it sort of general!

This is such a great idea! I want to do it, but I have no idea what topic I would choose.

I'm trying my hand at gardening this year, too! Right now I have strawberry and tomato plants, and cucumber, basil, catnip, and spearmint seeds growing. Luckily, my dad has the greenest thumb of anyone I know, so he's been taking care of them when I forget, but I'll have more time this summer when I leave my job. I'm really looking forward to the fresh vegetables and fruits. Good luck with your garden!

Oooooh, those all sound great! Cucumbers would probably be a good idea - could make my own pickles with them, too *______* And I definitely need to grow strawberries!

You've inspired me! I kept thinking of a hundred different things that I could do. I took a few photos and was all set to upload them when the batteries died. So now they're recharging...

I've been really enjoying your posts so far! I might have to try out your idea next time around - I wish I'd thought of it ;D

LOL! I keep looking to see if you've updated more. I wanted to comment on your baseball post, but was up all night working on my cousin's book. I think it's cool that you enjoy baseball. I've been to two games and enjoyed the atmosphere, but not the games themselves.

I love this idea! What a way to inspire and cultivate a grateful attitude and peaceful soul!
