Gratefulness–Week 2

November17


2nd week and I’m already behind.  Oh well!

Nov  8–Sunday

  • Time to be crafty!  Pretty much all I did all week was make Christmas cards.  I <3 Christmas paper.  I think I <3 it to an unhealthy level.  But I’ve finished a LOT of Christmas cards.

Nov 9–Monday

  • All of the fun I get to have with my students during December.  I ran errands to get what I need for Christmas around the world.  I even found windmill cookies!

Nov 10–Tuesday

  • 50% off sales!  Especially on Christmas decorations.  Got quite a few red and white ornaments for my Christmas tree.  Can’t wait to decorate!!

Nov 11–Wednesday

  • Sophisticated gratitude: the courageous men and women who live their lives, and offer their lives, to preserve our freedoms.
  • Uncultured gratitude: my favorite dinner–yum!  The best steak that I’ve ever cooked + red cabbage + peas.

Nov 12–Thursday

  • Domestic comforts, especially cleaning supplies and my own washer and dryer.

Nov 13– Friday

  • That I love my class!  I’m losing yet another student!  I’ll be down to 21 which means the next move-in or two will be mine.  They had better not screw up my kids!

Nov 14–Saturday

  • The perfect snowy day: no obligations and no where to go!  I could sleep late and make cards to my heart’s content!
