thankful #2

Tuesday, November 24th, 2009

I am thankful for the fact that changing diapers in this same spot every day is, well — just that. A part of my life. My every day world. This scene is a reminder to me of the miracle that it is to have sweet, healthy children. No one should take that for granted.

Oh, and for SURE I’m thankful for disposable gloves. Handling raw meat, changing a nasty diaper, random painting projects … you name it. I use them daily.

I am thankful for the chore of doing the dishes. Because seeing this mess reminds me that we have food to eat — plenty of food — every day. And running water and electricity to get those dishes clean. And loved ones to join us for a meal once in a while.

I am thankful for these anti-bacterial hand soaps from Bath & Body. You’ll find them at every single sink in our home. And I’m thankful they go on sale once in a while because that’s the only time I buy them.

FAQs for Project Life #3

Q: Is there any way to get close-ups/better views of kit contents?

A: Done. Check it out now, and you’ll see how you can click & enlarge each individual image for a closer view.

Q: I thought I would get an email confirmation when I placed my order, but haven’t received anything? Maybe my order didn’t go through?

A: Check your SPAM or junk box and make sure it didn’t go there. If you don’t see a confirmation email there, email customerservice@beckyhiggins.com with the name on your order and an order # if you have it.

Q: How come there are only 360 daily cards to write on? I know there are the bi-fold cards too, but I really like writing on the smaller cards for P365. I’m afraid I’m going to run out.

A: In an entire year, I am positive that you will have at least a small handful of days that you’ll need more room than a small journaling block. Take it as a challenge, on occasion, to write down more than a couple of sentences. You’ll appreciate having the bi-fold cards (which allow for 4 times as much space for journaling). Trust me.

Q: Did I miss when the kit is shipping?

A: The products are being shipped from overseas and we never can tell if there will be delays in customs. That said, we are on track to get these shipped out around the end of December, but are not able to pinpoint an exact date at this time. As always, I will share any and all updates here on my blog.

Hoping to give this as a gift for Christmas? No problem. I’ll be sharing a JPG that you can print and put under the tree. Stay tuned. That’s coming up.
