Today I’m thankful…<\/p>\n

…for the fall break that meant I didn’t have lectures to prepare on Sunday–which meant I could enjoy a fantastic BET party<\/b> instead<\/p>\n

…for the fall break that meant I didn’t have a lab to teach on Monday–which meant I could fly up to Columbus to get some work done and attend a Continuing Education opportunity<\/b><\/p>\n

…for the fall break that meant I didn’t have a lab to teach on Tuesday–which meant I could spend the day doing a luxurious nothing<\/b> (that is, laundry and sewing and blogging and reading and watching a movie with my little sister!)<\/p>\n

…for the work I got done at work during fall break which meant I could leave work a little early on Wednesday–which meant I could actually sit down and enjoy a meal with my sister before Bible study<\/p>\n

…for the work I got done at work during fall break which meant I didn’t have to feel rushed to get everything done today<\/p>\n

And then there’s the non-Fall break related stuff.<\/p>\n

I’m thankful for…<\/b><\/p>\n

…the house<\/b> Anna and I got to look at this morning–and that we at least have an opportunity to be in the running for it (Please let it be, Lord–This house is practically PERFECT.)<\/p>\n

…the health<\/b> that I’ve been blessed with when so many are getting sick these days (knock on wood!)<\/p>\n

…the air mattress<\/b> I sleep on in Columbus–and the hope that I’ll soon be sleeping on my own bed up here (in my own home, as well)<\/p>\n

…the coworker<\/b> who took a considerable amount of time hunting down a weight for me today<\/p>\n

…the realization<\/b> that God is in control (even when I’m steaming at how ObamaCare is affecting our industry. It’s a tough time to be in healthcare, especially in long-term care.)<\/p>\n

\"Thankful<\/a><\/p>\n

And I’m just thankful that, well, that God is and that He made me and that He places me where He wills and that His plans are always good–beyond my wildest dreams, even when they’re considerably “less” than my wildest dreams.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
