"Gonna make it work, but man these times are hard"

Isn't it funny how you can wake up in the morning with a completely random song stuck in your head? (hence the title of this post). It's quarter after 8 and I'm wide awake! =] So much for "sleeping in" but all that matters is that I feel rested, and I do. I have big plans for today, and it's rainy outside, so I think I might be able to get most of them accomplished. I hope to finish my quilt - now that I know how to put the binding on it. Jeez, I'm glad I researched some videos becuase I wasn't anywhere close. I won't ramble on with my to-do list but instead will get right along with my thank yous. I'm so thankful that I have a job. I'm thankful for my Rigby puppy, I'm thankful for my husband. I'm thankful for waking up rested. I'm thankful for contentment - although it is hard to find. I'm thankful for the rain, and the sunshine - although the rain could hold off a little since the river's already nearly engulfing the merrimack bridge. I'm thankful for our cozy apartment, and I look forward to continuing to put my "womanly" touches on it more and more as time goes along. I'm thankful that we caught the garbage truck in time - that would've been bad. I'm thankful once again for the news that my father got a job. I'm so very hopeful that he still has said job, and I pray Lord, that you would take care of him. Please God. He needs your help, I need your help - we all do. Thank you for your mercy, Lord. Amen. Love, Sara
