gratitude

Today I am thankful for Justin.  It will have been a year and a half this coming week... and what a true joy it has been to call this man my husband.  That whole "looking around and wondering how this became my life" thing is still a near-daily occurrence.  As is gut-laughing at some of his crazy antics.  No one told me marriage could be this much fun.  Then again, I haven't seen too many kids masquerading as grownups get married.  It kinda comes with the territory, I think.

Today I am thankful for the folks helping me out at physical therapy.  I came back from Spring Break with some serious aches and pains and they not only have me feeling better, they have me getting stronger.

Today I am thankful that the Office is on tonight.

Today I am thankful for the kind words people said to me as I left a job whose people I would miss.  Hugs were all around, and I felt very blessed to feel like I'd made a difference, no matter how small.

Today I am thankful that I nailed an A on a tough exam this week!  I'm thankful for teachers who have taken an interest in me and help me along the way with encouraging words.

Today I am thankful that I have an interview for a new job this next week... one I'd really love to have.

Today I am slowing down to be thankful.  God, sometimes I have no idea how to send good words your way, but I do want to be good at saying "Thank you."  So thanks.
