Thursday Thirteen and Thankful Thursday
January 15th, 2009 . by Joyce
Thirteen Things for Which I’m Thankful Today:
- I arrived home safely this evening from the city, driving in the dark, in the thick fog.
- My son-in-law brought in some delicious pizzas so I wouldn’t have to cook dinner after being out.
- Daughter #1 did the laundry.
- I found a couple awesome gifts this evening for daughter #5, who turns 17 in a few days.
- I’m thankful for Costco apple pie. Yum! That was dessert this evening.
- The music of Deuter, to which I’m listening just now on Pandora, is relaxing and uplifting.
- I feel better this evening, after awakening dizzy (ditzy?).
- I’m thankful to have our two grandbabies (and their parents) staying with us while they look for a more permanent residence. Tomorrow may be the day!
- The music of Paul Cardall is a blessing. He has a most inspiring life story, and his music is gentle and healing.
- I’m thankful that all these years my husband has borne with my faults, and I with his, and that we both want to do what pleases the Lord, though ‘in many things we offend.’ Yep; we love one another. We’re at our computers in the same room, back to back, talking about this and that every once in a while. I guess that’s what brought this blessing to mind.
- I’m thankful for daughter #4, who cheerfully lives her life with a major disability.
- I’m thankful for good medical coverage to pay for her expensive medications. I’m reminded of this because I picked up about $1,200 worth of meds today.
- I’m thankful to be able to stay in touch with friends so easily via the internet. That means you!
I loved your thankful list.
