5-a-Day

Yes, eating 5+ fruits and vegetables a day is extremely important, especially during this heat wave. Not only do they help keep you hydrated & supply a variety of vitamins and minerals, but they provide you with all-important fiber which contributes to keeping you “regular.”

While veggies & such are important (& I love my insulated 5-a-day lunch bag) it’s not what I’m talking about. My 5-a-day comes from a really cool journal I came across at Barnes & Noble the other day. It was in Spanish and had space for you to write in the date with a quote reminding you that you can find at least 5 things to be grateful for each day. So here goes:

Finishing jury duty by noon today and knowing I don’t have to go back for a year

Having A/C in my truck

The ability to read & write

Having A/C in my house

Simple joys like a friend writing about grinding on jiu jitsu Hump Day
