2017 Thankfulness: Week 44

I guess I fell a little bit behind in posting my thankfulness.  Don't worry, I've been faithfully keeping my log, but mostly it's been on paper until I transcribed it into the digital world.

Sunday

• Some brief rays of sunshine
• The spark of energy from starting to read a new leadership book
• Playing a board game with competitive people

Monday

• A cool breeze on my face
• The joy of learning
• Exercising strenuously

Tuesday

• A caring e-mail from a friend
• Strenuous, challenging yoga
• Going to bed by 11:30 PM

Wednesday

• Spiritual lunch conversation
• Small compliments
• Better work-life balance today

Thursday

• Qdoba for lunch
• Thinking about opportunities
• Talking to Mom on the phone

Friday

• Noticing the beauty of the maple leaves turning
• Awesome full moon rise
• Eating supper with a friend

Saturday

• Eternal perspective reminders
• Time to do little things around home
• Having a hymn in my mind

I must be approaching middle age because now I feel like I have experienced part of what that verse means when it says "have borne the burden and heat of the day".

The small compliments on Wednesday were all related to this sweater.  Three compliments in one day!  I've had it more than two years and worn it several times.  This was the first time I had worn it in several months because it's more of a fall/winter article of clothing.  Oh, and this sweater is also one of the purchases from the shopping spree two years ago.
