Grateful: 2010 1st edition
Welcome to the new decade! My intention is to continue my pattern of counting a few of my blessings in Sunday posts. So here is a list of a few of the things I’m grateful for this week:
- Extra PTO that required me to work only one (1) day this past week. While I’d like to think that I would have a pristine house I’m happier to report that I used the time to chillax more than obsess about cleaning.
- Low-key new year’s eve with G which included a neck massage to relieve a lingering migraine
- Great cooking (chicken chili and salmon were a couple of highlights
- Ending the old year by playing music with S and B
- G made a point of talking with the boys on Friday about his “intentions”
- Starting the new year by going to the movies and dinner with the boys and G on new year’s day (we saw Sherlock Holmes since Avatar was sold out)
- Walking on Jan 2 to kick off my marathon training
- All the support (and laughter) from friends here (and in person) who hear I’m going to run a half marathon
- Taking time to read a novel (“U is for Undertow” – I heart Kinsey Millhone!)
- A great interview/audition for a potential new church music job
- Serving as assisting minister this week at church
- G popped the question this morning after church (fwiw, I said yes!)

Wow! What a journey this past year has been for you. A few tears trickled down my cheek as I read this post. I’m grateful on your behalf as well.

I’m so excited for you. You went through your share of Mr Wrongs. Maybe that means there’s hope for me too.

Well aren’t I a day late and a dollar short…. First I had to find out from G – then waiting for a response had to read it on your blog…
CONGRATULATIONS!!! I am so excited for you – what a perfect guy!!!!
