Today was a very, very trying day for me full of frustrations and feeling discouraged. So in the attempt to end my day on a "good" note, I'm going to do a Thankful Thursday 5 before bed if it kills me. :P
1. Overall, I'm thankful that it is summer vacation. I'm not going to think about TODAY too closely, but overall its been wonderful to be lazy in the morning, to hang out, to catch up, to play, to read, to listen to music, to watch the kids play with their neighborhood friends, etc.
2. I'm thankful for my amazing neighbors.
3. I'm thankful for my honorary Olson family. They mean the world to me. Our Sarah is undergoing open heart surgery tomorrow to fix her "broken" heart. She's one of the most huge-hearted people I know ~ can't imagine what she'll be like when her heart is whole!
4. I'm thankful that we now have digital cable which supplies me with 24/7 music stations for "background noise" during the day.
5. I'm thankful that even on bad days, I still love my kids to the moon and back ~ from the top of their heads to the tips of their toes.
And now ... to bed I go! :) (bonus #6 and #7 ... I'm thankful for "The Office" reruns and the TiVo that supplies them before bed).
