Thankful Thursday I
Blonde Mom has a great idea that
Brittney has already picked up on. I think it'll be a good way to get me blogging at least once a week regularly, so we're going to start Thankful Thursdays this thursday.
This week, I am thankful for...
Tiffany's arrival back on this side of the country, safe and sound and not a moment too soon.
Everyone in the UK who helped prevent this morning's attempted airline attack.
Myranda's grandparents' donation to the "Get Tiff and Myranda a house" fund.
Yesterday's meeting with the amazingly helpful Mrs. Poole, who may well be renting a house to Tiff in the next few days. She met us 20 minutes after we called, knew the rental house inside and out, and was upfront and honest about everything. Besides that, she was fun conversation and an overall nice person.
Several afternoons with my housemates, who graciously let me take over their home for the summer without asking for a thing in return, and have since taught me better cooking, several new passtimes, and helped me keep my awesome job this summer. In particular, tonight's gaming :)
Alvie, our work techie, for teaching me all the fancy keyboard tricks I needed to make Excel only half as miserable to use.
Yesterday and Tuesday's conversations with Caroline, which kept me sane through all the data-entry.
The time spent with my Dad, StepDad, and Stepbrother as we celebrated all their birthdays.
and finally,
Brittney at NiT and
Blonde Mom for giving me the idea to try this.
