Thankful Thursday (7)

I'm thankful for...
  1. This little quote from Hebrews: "For God is NOT an indifferent bystander."  It means a lot to me!
  2. Getting Friday afternoon off and going to lunch with Bobbi at Cosmos, then a fun Utica shopping adventure, including the new Anthropologie!!  =D  *Random old school pic... it's about time for my long, blond hair to make a comeback!
  3. Getting to hang out with Rach a lot this weekend - partly while decorating her new place, and partly at Mom and Dad's with the whole fam together!
  4. My house... I'm thankful for so many little things, and I love that it's warm and happy, especially in the morning with all the sunlight pouring in! :)
  5. Finally getting my laser printer to work... time to print out the 28 plea transcripts I have piled up!!  Yikes.
  6. Panera's white cheddar mac n' cheese!!  Yum. 
  7. One Republic, because they're just fantastic!  I know a lot of people compare them to Maroon 5, but they're soooo much better!  Their lyrics are uplifting and make you feel better about the world, while Maroon 5 is usually about wallowing in self-pity.
  8. TV and movies!  I guess because it's always there, whether you need to zone out, laugh, live vicariously, or release some bottled-up emotion.
  9. Letting go of guilt... knowing that God still loves me and knows my heart even when I'm not super involved at church or leading some Christian activity or in some awesome Bible study.  That's it's really not about what I'm doing, but where my heart is... and that is improving.
  10. Feeling more like my normal, happy self again lately... doing my best to let go of the past and make the most of today!
  11. Blogging!!  I probably go overboard and say too much sometimes, but I love having this outlet, and love having so many memories/pictures/thoughts/tributes/etc. stored here!
  12. Getting to spend a lot of time hanging out and talking with Mom this weekend... while doing some fun painting, calligraphy, and decorating Rach's house!
  13. Bottled water... I'm out at work right now, so it reminds me how thankful I am! lol
  14. My new Banana Republic clothes... bought some cute gray boots, a grey jacket, and a blue sweater - and I love it all!  (I don't know which spelling is right, so I used one of each.)
  15. Our crowded family lunches after church on Sunday... they can be chaotic and obnoxious, but I love that we have close extended family and so many memories I know I will treasure! :)
