Day #54

First say working from home on Mondays.  had a half hour where my niece styled my hair while I worked.  Fun times...
Had a good time visiting with a friend...one where you talk for 2.5 hours and think it was only 1.  God is good! He blesses us with the people He places in our lives!!!

Day #53

What a day.  I am glad I had someone to go through it with.  We prayed about it together...and then we played a little pears (similar to banagrams ).  Had a fun time with my brother and his family eating ice cream for dinner...and then watched a great documentary on hiking the John Muir trail in california.  After giving it to God, sometimes we need the distraction so we don't dwell on it...and I am thankful for that... 

Day #52

Thankful for a day of errands.  Lowered our cell phone bill by $20.  Got my recall looked at and parts ordered.  And got the grocery shopping finished. 

Day #51

Grateful for my friend Heidi who is going back to Bridgestone after being at a job she hated for 6 months.  So excited we were able to have a celebratory lunch!  Wish her all the best!!!

Day #50

Thankful for God's constant reminder of grace.  It is so easy to see get frustrated with people...but it is a great reminder that I do that daily to God...and I need to focus my heart and energy on loving Jesus because then I will love His people just as He does.

Day #49

Thankful with even having a very rough day at work that because of Jesus I can still be thankful that I have a job.

It is not often that Luke and I get to do something fun together just the two of us.  We went to a great dinner at Outback...shared some fish and steak tacos...went to the Miami Heat vs. Cavs game.  It was a fun game to watch...we had some serious conversations... we laughed a lot.  Thankful for how God provides, and wants us to enjoy life and laugh!

Day #35

I am alive because GOD Is good...Even when it is disguised. 
My car was stuck in the driveway yesterday in our attempts to push it out my dad accidently crushed my hood where there is some rust and a piece broke off although it was still barely attached on oneside.  On my way home from Luke's it flew uo and landed on my windshield wiper.  So as I exited the highway I got out of the car to get it.  Your probably thinking great story Kristin...But if I didnt get out of the car I would have made my left hand turn when the light turned green...and I would have been hit by someone going through a red light at 45 mph...it was VERY scary to think about...and Just Thanking God for how he directs our lives and cares for us.  Everything has purpose and meaning!!!

Rough days make us grow.  Today was one of those days.  Thankful that God helps us to walk towards him and away from the things we can't control and distract us.
