To celebrate the launch of Girly Gazette, the editors have asked for everyone to participate in a week of positivity. Each day we will have new challenges, new ways to focus on US.
The first challenge asks, “What makes you feel fabulous?”
As you can see from the word collage above, finding what makes me fabulous was as simple as jotting down some simple ideas. Things like wine, chocolate, sex, and money are simple pleasures. The others… marriage, motherhood, life are more complex pleasures. Those are the ones we dream of, and we cherish, and sometimes take for granted. Being a mother and a wife is a fabulous journey. Not only are you giving your heart away, you receive so much love in return. To wake up each morning and know that I am a mother, and I am a wife, nothing could feel better.
Good music and good food are also on that list of what makes me feel fabulous, as well as ‘dancing wildly’. Have you ever just turned the stereo up loud and danced? Forget about what you look like, what your children think, and just dance for YOU. Even better, dance with your spouse and your children. Smile, laugh, giggle, yell, and move your body. Not only does it feel good physically, but it’s another family moment you can lock away in your mind and heart.
So now I ask you:
What makes YOU feel fabulous?

Awesome! I feel the same way!
All good things! I am embarrassed and feel bad that I didn’t mention my family even once – although being a mom definitely makes me feel wonderful beyond measure. I didn’t even mention music. I am way “off” today.
