Thankful Thursday

Today was one of those days where I thought it was Wednesday until about 1:00. Those days leave me feeling a little unsettled. What day is it? Who am I? What does it all mean?? It is indeed not Wednesday. It's Thursday, which means tomorrow is Friday. Which is never a bad thing. Unless it's not REALLY Friday, which, with my luck, could be true. Make sense? That's what I thought.

Today I am thankful for:

• my family and friends...excited to see some of the aforementioned on Saturday
• the genealogy lesson Grandad and I have planned for this weekend
• my health
• my job
• the many things I'm destined to learn from my darlings this school year :)
• tomorrow being the last day of my morning duty until November...I forget how much I can get accomplished in 30 minutes until I have to spend those 30 minutes supervising kiddos before school!
• the "lightbulb moment" I had with a student during math today...makes it all worthwhile!
• my tenure pay raise coming up...woohoo!
• a few more days "off" before I dive headfirst into grad school
• Sasha's successful interview (say that 3 times fast) today...even though we're branching off down separate post-grad paths, I'm glad I'll have an "I'm going back to school, too" buddy
• supper with Byrne last night
• feeling better than I did last week
• the little, super-subtle whisper of fall we got to feel for a few days...it's coming!
• the beginnings of a way fun, wide open spaces kinda trip starting to stir
• a weekend to regroup and rest and pull the pieces of myself back together...gotta love the first few weeks of school

HAPPY WEEKEND!
