"Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good,
His love endures forever.....
Give thanks to the God of heaven,
His love endures forever."
Psalm 136: 1, 26

Here is what I am thankful for today:
  • a supervisor who told me to take a "sick day" today so I can rest this headcold!
  • hot, mint tea
  • warm wool sweaters
  • a 9 year old who gets up right with the alarm clock and doesn't need several reminders to get ready for breakfast and school!
  • a husband willing to drive the 14 year old to school on a bitter cold day so she doesn't have to stand at the bus stop in the dark!
  • the winter sun...even though it is bitter cold...so good to see the sun!
  • long distance friends who email regularly
  • honeysuckle scented candles that remind me Spring is coming....it really is!
  • warm, fuzzy slippers
  • chocolate brownies
  • large, juicy grapefruit that soothes my throat!
  • books
  • my Bible
  • old, classic movies like Casablanca, Breakfast at Tiffany's
  • my fleece throw, a gift from my husband, that keeps me warm on the couch
  • daughters' hugs
  • husband's hugs
What are you thankful for today??

Oh, I hope you're back to normal soon. Your list makes you sound so comfy though. I could use a "sick day" just for all the pampering!

Praying for a speedy recovery...

Blessings, e-Mom
