Thanksgiving

Josh and I are so excited to go home. Tomorrow, I just have work, and then Wednesday morning we're leaving first thing for Indiana, Pennsylvania. I have to say, I'm looking forward to the time away from work, the time with family and friends, the quality time with husband. Not to mention counting my blessings on Thanksgiving, because every day should be thanksgiving. One day out of the year doesn't cut it. We have so many things in this world to be thankful for, I do! I know I'm blessed beyond words. I'm thankful for home-cooked meals, for cleaning the apartment, the smell of candles burning all day long, for quilting projects, for afternoons reading in bed, for straightened hair before 12 in the afternoon. I'm thankful for Rigby, and Josh. I'm thankful for our apartment with beautiful hard-wood floors, I'm thankful for groceries gotten, I'm thankful that I have the self control to drink water instead of diet coke. I'm thankful for health - both mine and Josh's, and our families. I'm thankful that my grandfather has made it this far in life and that he was able to be at my wedding. I'm thankful for many many more things as well, but this post is just to name a few. I will do my best to find things to be thankful for in the midst of struggles, in the midst of bitterness, anger... and happiness. Give thanks always. That is my goal, that is my mission.

Amen!

Safe travels friends, and a very happy Thanksgiving!!
