Sunday Gratitude – 14.I.2024

Oh, man, is it cold outside! 

I’m grateful to be in a warm house, certainly.

I had a situation this week – a payment that was supposed to come earlier didn’t – and so I was in a little bit of a panic, as to a bill that needed to get paid today. I ended up scrambling around a bit today to take care of that, but was very grateful to see that the payment came through sometime between last night and this morning. I’m grateful that even if the payment hadn’t come through, I wasn’t totally out of options. 

I’m grateful for some time alone; I got a project done that had been sitting, undone, for a year. It makes me feel better because now each one of the kids has their own of this item. 

I’m grateful for the ladies at church who cheerfully stayed after realizing I had left my purse there. They didn’t know my number, so I was home before the phone tag caught up with me that this was where my purse was. I said that it would be a half-hour before I could get back to the church, otherwise I could pick it up from somebody somewhere later in the week, but the ladies who were cleaning up said they’d stay, and even said that they were glad for the time they had just to sit and chat with each other while I made it back. 

I’m thankful that the car seems to be running well, even in the extreme cold. 

I’m thankful that the boots I ordered last week are only slightly delayed, and not lost in Tacoma, as it seemed they might be earlier in the week. 

I’m thankful I got to spend a few minutes checking out Lake Michigan today. 

I’m grateful for God’s Love which is around me all the time.

I’m grateful for the patience so many people have had with me.

As always, I am thankful for you.
