31 Things I am Grateful for December 2020

I don’t know how to feel about the last month of 2020. On one hand, 2020 was rough and I’m over it, so peace out bitch. On the other hand, December was a pretty great month for us, we have a new kitchen, a new bathroom, and some new floors. So our house is like 1/2 new and we couldn’t be more excited about it.

I hope this month has brought a little magic to the end of this upside down year for you too. Don’t forget to find or make magic if you need to. Look at some holiday lights, drink a festive beverage, make a list of fun things to try in the new year ahead, or whatever will help you feel happy.
