Sunday Seven
Sunday Seven is a meme designed for giving thanks for the big or little things in our lives - or to recognize the positive things going on! If you'd like to play along, please go here.
Sunday - Well, I guess you knOw I was sO thankful to be out on that boat with the kids and the dads! We just had so much FUN -- I think we all hope to make it an annual event!
Monday - Today I was thankful for two things. One was that Krysti got SAFELY off on her trip to Europe! After last week's fiasco, this is truly a blessing! The other thing I was thankful for was that Monday's ARE short workdays for me - I get off at 10:00 ... and that gave me the rest of the day to TRY to recuperate from the weekend! And Carol and I had lunch together today - at Ledo's ... ooops! That makes 3 things! :)
Tuesday - Bonnie and I had lunch together today! (at Mexico) This is the first time we've gotten to do that! It was nice to have a bit of time together just bein' friends - not co-workers! (I mean we still are - but you know what I mean...)
Wednesday - A DOUBLE dose of good news today! Carol & Hector BOTH got temporary jobs! Carol will be working at Outback Steak House until something comes along for in her true line of work! It just sickens me the way these college graduates can NOT get a decent job these days! And the interviews she has been on -- those people just don't knOw what a hard and dedicated worker they DIDN'T choose! But for now she will have this anyway! And Hector was hired as a Supervisor at Target... (with a pretty darned good salary!) If the Post Office doesn't hurry they MAY not get him!!! And that will be their loss -- and Target's gain!
Thursday - The Bible Babes met for dinner at Stoney's Seafood House on Broome's Island tonight! We were celebrating Tammie's birthday and it was sO much fun! The weather was PERFECT ... and just sitting out on the deck by the water and having a nice seafood meal... with good friends... WONDERFUL!
Friday - Amanda & Hector came over for dinner tonight. I sO enjoy seeing the two of them together! It has been way too long since he was a regular part of our life!
Saturday - Guess what my boy, Mathew, did for me today? Well... he and Carol. They scrubbed my kitchen floor (while I was out running errands) and when I got home they were upstairs painting my hallway! Just out of the blue... Sometimes that boy just amAzes me!!! I AM blessed! Indeed I am!

What mother would not like to come home to a clean floor and painting being done without having to ASK!!! WOW!! I would be so thrilled that I would not know what to do with myself!! My son is so far away. I feel if he were closer but then I am just imagining things now!! Hm!! Hope your day is great today too to add to your great list. My list would not be that wonderful I am afraid. Take care. Remember this Tuesday Kathy has her operation. Sandy

I am thankful that the packing is almost over and I will soon be on my way -- much lighter of possession. May I never collect do much crap again!
This week has been very stressful and I've dwelt on the negative. Your Sunday Seven just reminded me to focus on the positive. Thanks!

Wow, look at you Miss "Out to Lunch"...sounds like an amazing week full of fun, friends and blessings. Kudos to Matt and Carol...what a wonderful thing to do. Praying for Kristi's trip and safety. Hope God continues "to knock your socks off" in the most blessed kind of way.
