Is there something that you look forward to everyday? A message or call from a friend, a lovely letter from someone special, a special delivery, etc?
I hate routines. I had been doing the same things for quite a long time and i've realized i have to break free from that routine. So i changed and i found that i really like my life now better than before. I always have something to look forward to everyday like, a run around the neighborhood, shopping, picking my son up from school, visiting my tattoo artists, longboarding, surprise messages from friends!
I kept myself busy in a healthy way and i'm enjoying it now. Sometimes the unexpected is more fun!

Same here, my daily life, the time that i wake till the time I sleep and till the next day its all the same. What I did yesterday is basically what i will do the next day. I hate this "routinary" run of my life. When i wake up and before I sleep I always pray that there would be something different or out of the ordinary will happen on my day that will push me out of "train rail" in which my life is going. But well, if we want change and we wish for something to look forward to it is basically up to us on how to change the run of our lives. Have a good day my friends. Keep inspired in order for us to have something to look forward to.

Me too! I was actually going to start a similar discussion about this today. Because the monotony of working gets really old! I generally look forward, every day, to the time where I get out of work! I try to make myself big long to-do lists and I go thrift shopping a couple times a week after work, see friends, etc. I have to fill up my schedule with interesting things to do otherwise there would be really nothing to look forward to. I also look forward to the weekends... 
. Happy MyLotting!

The way i perceive you Toni, you live and love life as it rolls. You derive happines from simple things and simple surprises in life. That's why you are happy in life.
And just like you, i am like that. I look forward to my evenings , to be able to watch my favorite soaps, such as The Legacy and Biritera of GMA. And i am happy that now, my husband shares my like of watching The Legacy .
I look forward to mornings because i will again be meeting people in the office, other than my office mates. Those are simple things in life yet, they truly make me look forward to my everyday life.

Thank you D! I'm just doing my best to enjoy simple things in life. Now i'm loving the company of my son more than ever. We both enjoy the same things and i like it that we can bond through the things that we love doing.

There are many I look forward to every day, toni. Every day I think of myself being a lot better in terms of financial position and health.
Your husband is lucky to have such a busy, energetic wife.
I expect my wife to be like you.
Happy mylotting.

Marry me? 
Kidding!
My son is as hyperactive as me. I think that's why my husband love me in the first place.

Indeed some unexpected thing is more fun than being in a routine. What do i look forward to? Whenever I go to work I always look forward to my day off :) where I can be lazy if I want to. I am busy most of the time at work and dont get enough rest because i have a shifting schedule. And for my long term goal, I am looking forward to passing my ielts though I have not formally reviewed yet and also for the home coming of my friend from a different country. I miss the company of my college friends.

Great things to look forward to! Today i'm just so excited to receive my longboard. A Loaded Pintail from California that costs 250 pounds in UK! But i got it of course not at that price!! So i'm excited. Can't wait for the courier to knock on my door.
