I love it!
I am often ridden with anxiety, stress and other painful emotions that seem to attack at the oddest times. I've never learned how to appropriately deal with them, and they've ganged up on me recently. Giving thanks for all God's blessings seems like a wonderful way to begin changing my response to these stressors.
So I begin:
1. Free coffee at work, and those of us who rotate bringing in the good creamer.
2. Having a job that I love.
3. Puppies
4. The space heater in my office for those chillier days
5. Tom, of course, without whom, who knows where I'd be?
6. Harper, who even at 9 months, seems like he's been here my whole life.
7. Whiteboards and dry erase markers.
8. Paying off debts.
9. Mom, who always encouraged me to get out of Michigan.
10. Did I mention coffee? Yes?... Okay, I'm thankful for my own office, with a view and sunlight and everything!
