An hour off with a friend makes the world of difference to a day :)

...bed.
I don't even care if I've blogged this before, or what the world thinks of the fact I didn't make it properly this morning... I am SO thankful for my bed tonight.

...the bedside book stack.
Some of these books have been there all year. Some I've read before, others are new. Some are mine, some are borrowed from friends. But I'm thankful that they're there, a wide variety to greet me when ever I have a few minutes to spare for them. I can't wait til the holidays - I have plans to spend many warm days with these friends, sitting in the sun with a cup of tea and a notebook to record my thoughts.

...mood-improving weather.
You wake up and look out your window to find that the weather is nasty. Sad face. You dress/coif based on the fact that you will be getting saturated and/or blown away just walking to your car when you have to go out at lunch time. But then, fantastically, when midday comes the clouds are gone and the tshirt you have on under 2 other layers turns out to be sufficient for the enjoyment of the beaming sunshine.
Your mood magically improves. Birds are singing. Life is great. You take a photo and spend the car trip to Kingston writing blog posts in your head.

...moments.
I was running early (shock-horror) to a meeting today so I went to the beach, sat down, took off my shoes and squidged my toes in the sand for ten minutes. It's been a pretty good day, but I think this was the highlight. I'm thankful to live near the ocean. I'm thankful for sunny days and fresh air. I'm thankful for a moment to sit and reflect and breathe.

...shared food with friends.
It's kinda powerful really, when you think about it. Jesus did it, although maybe not with cupcakes.

...a hijacked oven.
It's so nice to be able to put something in the oven, set the temperature and walk away knowing it'll cook but not burn.

...a few hours off.
For once I'm not running around like a headless chicken trying to organise youth group stuff for tonight. I should try and get ahead for next term, but instead I'm chilling in the youth room with a book I liberated from Steve's bookshelf. I'm thankful for a quiet afternoon before the craziness begins!
PS. I'm not as tired as I look in this photo. Promise.
