Thankful Thursday

 

Today I am thankful for a quiet day to just be quiet at home.   I've been dealing with fatigue on epic levels again... awake at 5:30 and ready to be back in bed by 7:30 for a couple of more hours.  I do pretty well again until around 12:30-2:30 when I don't even have the energy to keep my eyes open no matter what I'm doing.  The crazy thing is that I seem to have lots of energy in the evenings.

 

So after a busy but wonderful day yesterday, I am ready to spend today and tomorrow being quiet and resting at home. 

Thankful Thursday

 

This week some things I am thankful for...

• After a delicious meal this last week Andrew said, "Thanks mom that was the best dinner in the whole world."  I was standing at the sink when he said this and it really touched me because I am not naturally a good cook nor do I especially like cooking (blush).  My husband is the one that usually gets the compliments about how delicious his meals are.  If you are wondering what I made for dinner, we had a cheesy potato and ham soup with broccoli and cauliflower with fresh dinner rolls.
• After 7 days with Scott home his load cancelled again AND we got another 3 days with him home!  TEN (10!!!) FULL DAYS with my best friend home.  I had so much fun taking care of him and serving him meals this week. 
• Last Friday morning Andrew got up and made scrambled eggs all by himself and then brought them and a glass of water in a fancy glass to his dad who was still sleeping.  He loves to bless others and I'm so thankful for this.
• Fresh raw milk from the farm. 
• For physical rest while I ice my knee
• For my chiropractor who is helping me with my knee
• For God's amazing healing plants (comfrey) that is helping speed healing in the bone cartilage in my knee
• For my boys who are very good at helping out around the house
• The smell of fresh cut grass
• The girls that come to my weekly Bible study
• The entertainment that the kittens give us.
• A warm cup of coffee with fresh raw milk
