I have slacked off the last couple of weeks (sorry!) with adding my link-up to this post. I added it tonight though and I would love to see what YOU are thankful for this week! I really love that Thankful Thursday is catching on with so many people!
This week I am thankful:
1. For the rain...even though it's dreary and I'm almost ready for it to end, when the sun finally comes, everything will be so green!
2. That I got a new seat for my bike so that my gravel-road bike rides aren't so hard on my body! LOL
3. That we found a slipcover that WORKS!
4. And that looks good!
5. And was a pretty good price! (it was at Wal-mart of all places).
6. This is a hard one, but I am thankful for how God is "pruning" me lately. It's very hard, and I'm weary from being stretched beyond my comfort zone, but I know that He is holding me close the entire way, and for that, I am thankful.
7. That I stuck to my menu plan all week and haven't had to go to the grocery store even one extra time...I even have some extra food!
8. That I budgeted my money better this month than I have in a LONG time.
8. That my amazing husband thought to look under the hood of my van tonight and caught some things that needed to be fixed...and then fixed them immediately before I got in real trouble.
9. That Myka has been going more often without diapers.
10. I know I thanked my friend who was super honest with me last week, because I needed to hear it, but this week, I'm even more appreciative of her advice. Thank you.
11. That business is picking up again for Little Lily!
12. For the quiet in my house right now...I love this time of evening.
13. For the impromptu dinner date that Daniel asked me to on Monday :)
14. For Danica's new toy...I know it shouldn't be as big of a deal as I've made it, but it makes her so happy!
15. That I got season 3 of Chuck back today...time for a rerun-athon!
16. That Daniel came home for lunch today..and brought ME lunch instead of me making it. What a nice surprise :)
17. For my shop vac, which makes cleaning the copious amounts of mud from my entryway MUCH easier.
18. That my sister in law Angela calls me so often. I love having someone to just chit-chat with throughout the day!
19. For the huge box of beef that my in-law's gave us last week. Now we have roasts and ground beef to last a couple of months!
20. For a new-to-me cell phone that doesn't have a cracked screen!

Sounds like you've had a very wonderful week! Lots to be thankful for :)
ReplyDeleteI am thankful for my laser engraver. Sounds kinda funny and materialistic, but because of this machine, I am able to considering crafting full-time! Such an exciting time in my life!
What a wonderful list! I'm thankful for my sink constantly being full of dirty dishes...it means I've still got a house full of people who need me :-)
ReplyDeleteBe blessed!
