Thankful Thursday

(moving right along not acknowledging that it's been forever since I've done one of these posts)

This is hell week for me.  Sunday is my big event day at work- I'm responsible for the whole shebang from food to 160 volunteers, to coordinating a blood drive and, oh, raising about $200,000 all in a day.  It kills me every year and every year at this time I am hanging on by the thinnest of threads.So what a great day to take a few minutes and remember what I am thankful for.

1.  Education.  D$ and I are taking a class together every Wednesday night.  It's a pain to get off work on time, get some food in us, load our supplies in the car, drive 20 minutes away- but when we get there- we relax, sink in and soak up some valuable information.  The drive home offers time to debrief, ask each other questions and reiterate what we learned together. In all our years together, we've never taken a class together, so this is a fun, new experience for us!

2.  Avocados.  I can't get enough of them lately and we make, if I do say so myself, the best guacamole.  It's not spring yet,  but it feels that way in Tucson and munching on avocado makes me feel  even more ready for spring!

3.  My new dress.  I love it, it is comfortable, makes me feel pretty and compliments my ever growing 16 week baby bump nicely.  



What are you thankful for?
