As I have found myself slipping again into a pit of discontent, I feel it might be worthwhile to revive last year’s “Thankful Thursday” (which I wrote exactly one day less than one year ago, coincidentally.) It does me well to reflect on the goodness of God.
Today I’m thankful…
- That I knew at least SOME of the questions on my biochemistry test. Depending on how he grades, I might do decently.
- That I was able to get an interview with the dietitian at Matt Talbot Kitchen & Outreach. We did double duty as she manned a stand at one of the Community Crops Farmer’s Markets.
- That I ran into Karen from NEP (Nutrition Education Program) at the market today. It was so nice to catch up with her.
- That Anna decided to leave us some cups. Looking at my possessions sans what Anna’s taking to her new place, it seems we won’t have to buy near as much as we expected. (As of right now, it looks like our main “wish list” is silverware, plates, knives, handheld mixer, iron, and ironing board–If you have any that you’re longing to get rid of, keep Casandra and I in mind!)
- That Dad offered to let me practice on “William” whenever I’d like. Anna’s taking her piano with her–and when Dad saw me today, he came over to give me a hug and “console me over the loss of a piano.” He then assured me that I could play William (my parents’ upright grand) whenever I’d like. What’s more, since I live in the same neighborhood as they do, I actually might be able to take them up on the offer.
- That I don’t have to go anywhere tomorrow. I feel the need for a veg–and it just so happens that the other TA is teaching the lecture tomorrow and told me she doesn’t care if I come. I won’t be going.
yay for thankful Thursdays!! =)
God is so good!
I wish I were at home today too. Not because I feel “the need to veg” but because I have so much to do!! Like my laundry and cleaning my disaster area formerly known as my bedroom…
(and I have nothing to do at work!) :-/
