Prompt Response: What to Look Forward To.

I was reading last year's summer issue of Bella Grace today, and it had a prompt to write down what you can look forward to over the next week. I decided to write it for this week and next week. I'm trying to remind myself that tasks are something to look forward to as well. Of course, every day, I look forward to that first morning soda.
