My last few weeks have been hard.<\/p>\n
I’ve been busy on Wednesdays, blue on Thursdays, and pretty much beat on Fridays.<\/p>\n
But today I turned a corner and am beating the Thursday blues.<\/p>\n
TODAY, I’m thankful…
\n…for the mercies of God that are new every morning
\n…for a wildly productive morning (morning routine, Bible study, zone cleaning, trash out, recycling sorted, car cleaned, and bills paid–all before 7:30 am)
\n…for salmon pink contrails on my way into work
\n…for a remarkably smooth lab session (kudos to my first lab group, who did a FANTASTIC job on their presentation)
\n…for getting my tax return filed (and not having to pay any taxes this year)
\n…for a lovely lunch with my dad
\n…for time to ride my<\/strike> the rec center’s bicycle this afternoon
\n…for a post-poned meeting that meant I had an extra hour to do statistics homework
\n…for a work assignment that’s just up my alley (creating some study activities for the Nutrition and Metabolism students to use to practice and apply the carbohydrate knowledge they’ll soon be gaining)
\n…for an ACTUAL STUDENT who showed up at my office hours today
\n…for getting to the exam I was proctoring on time (even if just barely)
\n…for a stimulating conversation with Sabine (I am SO thrilled to be working for her!)
\n…for my sweat pants back (even if I had to dig through Grace’s laundry basket to find them–I’m gonna be warm tonight.)
\n…for the vegetarian chili that’s still leftover–and still tasting great (I’ve eaten at least one bowl a day for the last five days, and it tastes better with each passing day. How many recipes can YOU say that about?)
\n…for my little space heater and time to “catch up” on the internet
\n…for the terrific little web-site ap thingie<\/a> I just found. With it, you can find songs and let people listen to them on your website. It’s sort of like YouTube except that it has 2nd Chapter of Acts<\/a> songs.
