More Thankfuls....

Another week, and I am very thankful for a quiet morning. Among my blessings of this week:

• Finding 2 blouses on clearance sales.
• Putting in extra hours at work...and surviving. Work has been very challenging the last few weeks for various reasons, so I am thankful to have made it successfully through another week.
• Enjoying playing "games" with our cat Max. He loves to play tag.
• Having a cloudy Sabbath morning so that I have an excuse to burn my Yankee Candle..fresh cut roses.
• Having hubby make the coffee this morning.
• Figuring out how to get the "new" Facebook, and liking it very much.
• Chatting with friends on Facebook..even doing two chats at the same time one evening.
• Playing Sudoko on Facebook.
• Remembering 5 years ago today. The beautiful wedding of my son and daughter in law.
• Planning a date with hubby.....breakfast at Cracker Barrel.
• The Lord providing our needs for yet another week.
• Knowing He is in control, even when I am tired and out of sorts, and nothing seems to be making sense at the moment. And that those moments don't last.

Of moons and clouds and noisy neighbors....

Thankfuls for this week:

• Being grateful that our neighbor's boys don't have camp out sleepovers every night. Sleepover is a misnomer. They did not sleep. They ran around. They laughed. They had fun with flashlights right outside our bedroom window...at 2:30 AM. They enjoyed the trampoline at 4:30 AM. And everyone knows that must not be done silently. Sigh.
• Enjoying a lovely visit from friends Sara and Melissa.
• Seeing a lovely moon on my way home from work last night.
• Being encouraged by seeing a beautiful pink cloud the other evening. Somehow just looking at that cloud and seeing its beauty reminded me I have a faithful Father in heaven who is in charge.
• Our son finished his first week of attending the Police Academy. Even though he was sick most of the week.
• Having a helpful daughter. Thanks Penny for Wednesday.
• Having an extra quiet night at work last night.
• Knowing that God is good...all the time.
• Enjoying a brand new copier at work!!!
• More friends on Facebook. So nice to connect with old friends!
