Thankful on a Monday

One would think that in being a SAHM (stay-at-home-mom), that Mondays would be no sweat. But I still find myself hating them big time...so Monday Thankfulness is a good exercise in me being positive!

01- My sweet sister bringing me home Caribou Coffee from the mid-west (I have never had it!).
02- That Justin has a stable job with ample opportunity for overtime, even if it meant not seeing much of him last week.
03- For Lizzy, who gives smiles so readily, and is developing such a sweet personality.


04- Library books.
05- For Pastor C, who prayed a prayer of Thanksgiving yesterday that we live in a country where there is freedom of religion, and for those of ALL religions to be able to worship without obstruction. It was good for my soul.
06- For our softball team, even though we lost. Again!
07- For great organizations like CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates) that do much needed work with children.
08- For a weekend spent with family.
09- That my sister in law Renee is able to spend some time with her dad this week.
10- For warm quilts made by family members on a cold morning.

  3. I hate Mondays as well. Because weekends are just so much better. I'd prefer if weeks were only from Wednesday to Sunday. :o)

  4. You need a quilt to keep warm this morning?! Oh, how jealous am I! It was 89 degrees here this morning at 8am when I woke up. :(
