It’s quiet around here. You’d think I’d be able to get lots done and have great thinking times, but I must think better with some noise around me, because I’m having a hard time coming up with much right now! So here’s my (somewhat shorter) Thankful list for this week:
*A friend who brought me ibuprofen when I ran out and couldn’t get out to get more
*A husband who does well at communicating over long distances (I’ve talked to him at least twice a day while he’s been gone!)
*The encouragement he’s gotten while being at his conference/training
*These conferences/trainings that he gets to go to, because they are what God is using to sustain us financially
*The fun that my kids are having at their friend’s house (and they even managed to do school today–combined, there are 6 of them)
*These two days where I’ve only had to care for myself (I know that sounds selfish, but with how I’m hurting at the moment, I don’t know how much more than that I could do!
*The encouragement and prayers of bloggy friends
*Microwave popcorn (and yes, you can eat it whilst lying down!)
*The gift package I got in the mail from a blog giveaway–thank you Ann!
That’s all I got for right now. Now I’m off to lie down and watch the 2nd in the LOTR trilogy. I think I’ll eat almonds and chocolate chips this time. ‘Night all!
You poor girl! I'd be pretty lonely if I was hurting and by myself. Good for you for being able to be thankful for it!
Shew, your worse than my hubby. Don't you know you shouldn't eat lying down LOL! I quarrel at him over that ALL the time! So glad you can find lots of thankfuls even while in pain. Your one tough chick. Hope you are feeling MUCH better very soon!
A great list for Thursday!!
So glad you are able to get some rest. Sounds wonderful!
I don't think its selfish at all to be glad for a day of rest.. as a mommy you really need those! I like your thankful posts! (I am Martintreehouse on xanga… :))
