Thankful
I like the idea of posting thankful thoughts all week. Course it will probably be the same post on the various places I post, but there you go. :-)
For yesterday? I'm thankful that 1) I didn't have to go anywhere and 2) Jeff made it home safely. He didn't actually get home until just after 1am, but he made it home. And I had food hot and waiting for him when he did.
For today? I'm thankful for a lot of things. I'm grateful for the house I'm living in. 20 degree weather would be miserable in some of the places I've lived. I'm also thankful for the central oil heat that can take an inside temp of 66 and turn it into 70 fairly quickly. Yesterday I ran the heater probably 3 or 4 times total. For the rest of the time, we can supplement with little stand alone radiators. I would be remiss if I didn't also express my gratitude for the clear skies and sunshine I woke up to. Yes, that makes it even colder and likely won't even help get rid of the ice. But it lifts my spirits and makes the snow outside look even lovlier. (I'm again grateful that I don't have to go anywhere today and hope that Jeff's commute isn't nearly as long tonight...)
One more thing to be thankful for is my job. My wonderful, flexible, work at home job. We recently started on a new project that has me working at least half time (up from 5-10 hours a week). My bank account is loving it, even if my daily time management/scheduling issues are not. :-)
