Okay today's sounds a lot like yesterday:
Beautiful weather. It is so fall like out that I can't wait for the smoke of fireplaces and crisp night air. I am also thankful for friends that I got to spend the afternoon with. I had a lot of fun. :)

Day 2
Oh todaywill be so easy.
Today I am thankful for: a fun Friday night and absolutely beautiful weather today.
Last night Erin had some friends over. She was supposed to play at the football game, but because of the storm, the game was cancelled. So they went to Steak and Shake after the storm. Julie met me there and her and I had good food while Erin and her friends had fun. Then we came home and Julie washed out some clothes and we watched The Lucky One. Good good movie. I do think the book is better, though.
Then this morning the sky is so blue, and the air is so cool. Just a delightful day.
Have a good day everyone.

30 Days of Thankfulness
It seems lately that a lot of things that could go wrong have gone wrong. I won't list them here, because that would be a real downer for everyone. But lets just say that my faith has been shaken to the core once again.
It seems that many times it's easy to fall into the "pity party pit". Isn't that what satan wants? I think so. But then I am reminded that yes bad things happen, God did not promise us that everyday would be without it's trials and temptations, and yes life does get better even though we think it's never going to get better.
So since it is September, and I absolutely love the seasons that are coming up, I am going to try to find at least one positive thing to be thankful for each day starting today, and for the next 30 days. It's my "30 Days of Thankfulness". So here's today's entry:
I am thankful that I was able to get up this morning and go to work.
- There are so many people who can't do this simple task. Getting up. It requires being able to move and breathe unassisted. I see many people who have to use "aids" to walk, breathe, and what I think is the most humilitating...take care of "personal business". That in itself would make me want to run away screaming.
- Having a job...with the unemployment rates so high, just the fact that I get a paycheck every two weeks, and can afford health insurance for my family is a huge gift.
What are you thankful for? I'd love to know.
