Day 2,991

Thankful for: 

A glorious morning in the forest. I heard a ton of crows outside this morning, so I knew a hawk had to be close by. I ran outside with my camera and saw the hawk as it flew to a tree. The crows must have lost sight of it, and flew off. I got to spend about 10 minutes watching it and taking pictures of it.

I saw many beautiful birds today. 

It is very cold outside, and I love it. I'm so thankful for cold air. 

I'm thankful for my warm and cozy home. 

I'm thankful for home clothes. 

Another day off tomorrow. 

Couch cuddles. 

Tobin got to play with a friend. 

I got to have lunch with my friend, Heidi. 

Soup, bread, and a sandwich. 

Texts with my friend, Melissa. 

A phone call with Patty. 

The feeling of my bed. 

Higbee likes to cuddle in my bed. The sight of him all curled up in my covers makes me feel overwhelmed with joy that I have an animal that loves me. 

My kids have a two hour delay tomorrow. 

Good conversation. 

A short week this week at work. 

The end of a long process coming soon. 

The knowledge that God is taking care of me, so I don't have to worry about tomorrow. 

A glorious day in the forest.
