Half-way.

Today was November 15.
SOMETHING I AM THANKFUL FOR:
November only has 30 days.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I am wearing my new Costco slippers.
They kinda look like this photo (below), but mine are nicer.
Trust me.

Why oh why did I wait 14 years to buy myself a pair?
(The last pair I wore were a gift from my mother-in-law in 1997.)























SOMETHING I AM THANKFUL FOR:
Happy feet.

I have just concluded 6 hours of job interviews with ONE ORGANIZATION. And now I have a two page assignment to work on this weekend. Ich bin exhausted from thinking of how to best answer their 1,000 questions, and wishing they would just hire me already and wondering if I can even DO the job and second-guessing all my answers and hoping that they like me and walking that fine line between humbleness and bragging.

SOMETHING I AM THANKFUL FOR:
The hiring process for this particular company is almost completed. The end results are in God's hands. My head has peace about this. (Now if I could just tell my stomach and soul to relax for pity's sake.)

Last weekend was Max's birthday. We went to the Keg for supper then over to Colossus to watch Skyfall at midnight.















It delivered what it was supposed to.
It was a good choice for our evening.
(I however, prefer more light/humorous moments in my action flicks -like, say Ironman.)

Then? All the boys came back here for night. And played Halo til dawn.
I made them 'second supper' at 4 am, then went to bed.

At 1pm I got up and made brunch for my bunch before they all went their separate ways.

On Sunday night, between 8 pm and midnight? We all met again, driving through snow and slush, at the cabin. (I know, right? How spoiled was I last weekend? TWO overnighters with my kids. BEST weekend ever.) And on Monday, the boys winterized the cabin. It was a beautiful thing to behold.









SOMETHING I AM THANKFUL FOR:

My kids. And their willingness to step up when I need their help.

OTHER THINGS I AM THANKFUL FOR:

1. The sun shone today. 

2. A good(ish) evening with my dad. 

3. Having Drew around. (And then I get to see Danica too.) 

4. Friends who are going to share their "good ideas" with me on Friday night.

5. Kids who have asked me to photograph them. (Shhh. Christmas present for their parents.)

6. My health. 

7. Praying friends.

Shalom,
