Thankful Thursday


Today is Thursday, so that means it’s time for Thankful Thursday … an opportunity to take a little time for some intentional thankfulness.
I will give thanks to the LORD because of his righteousness; I will sing the praises of the name of the LORD Most High.  Psalm 7:17
 
I’m thankful for:
  • the flexibility and understanding of my supervisors … when I got the call that DD had to take T#4 to the pediatrician (during nap time) which meant that she needed me to come up and watch the other Ts, my supervisor didn’t bat an eye when I told her that I needed to take the rest of the day off. 
  • the opportunity to return to work part time … with the uncertainty about the economy and our retirement nest egg, it’s nice to be able to supplement our retirement income.
  • the generosity of my co-workers who’ve got me supplied with plenty of good reading material for the next several months! 
  • the ability to help DD & DSIL get ready for their move.
  • the sun shining after OH. SO. MUCH. RAIN.
  • having the next 5 days off … of course, I’ll be working harder than I would if I were at work, but that extra hour’s sleep each morning will be wonderful!  And I do hope to be able to finish up the doll quilt and get started on hand quilting T#4’s big girl quilt.

  2. So glad you are getting some sun finally. We had a great sunny day yesterday. Today it's pretty cloudy but still in the 70's. I'm so happy for you in that you have a job that will let you take time off just-like-that for your family. Nice company.

  3. Wonderful list of blessings! How wonderful to be able to help with your retirement nest egg. These times do make things uncertain don't they? How nice you are able to help your daughter with her move. Our moves are FAMILY projects too...: ) Enjoy your days off...don't work too hard!
