"Even when the rainbow seems to pass right by me....I'm still finding Gold in the clouds....."

"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
