Day 29 - Gratitude

And just like that, my Lent project is back on track. The end of last week and over the weekend I was attending the largest homeschooling conference in the KC area so no blog posts about the blessings...but there were many!

Today was pretty good for a Monday. The little funk in the afternoon could have been avoided by consuming some caffeine I do believe, but that is over and done and I'm moving swiftly toward couch time!

Five blessings of my day:

1. My dear neighbors are back from wintering in Texas and we got to catch up with them today! Welcome home Mary Jean & Bud.

2. The scratch recipe of the day turned out really good! Refried Beans without the Refry...thanks Jo for the tip. Now if just someone besides moi would eat them (I froze most...might be, ahem, not a good idea to eat a whole crock-pot full myself).

3. Remembering the laughter that filled the air at lunch on Friday with several girlfriends.

4. "I read George book! I read Baby book! I read 'schlama, schlama' book!" That last one is Llama, Llama, Red Pajama. Perhaps one of the cutest read aloud books published of late.

5. Being excited about the next school year...and even better, excited about finishing up this one!

Have a great Tuesday...I'm kiddo free most of the day and have yet to choose what I will do...perhaps something wild and crazy like go to CVS.
