Today is Thankful Thursday and I have sooooo much to be thankful about today!

I have to say first thing that I have been to church for VBS 4 nights in a row (including meeting on Sunday). There was a time not soooo long ago that I could have never done that, but God has restored my health and given me energy and strength that I never thought would be possible again. I praise God for his healing power!!!!!!

And on to the little things. My washing machine is sounding like a space rocket as I sit here typing. This new machine is VERY different from my old one, makes weird little noises that makes you think it's getting ready to fly, but it's awesome!! I can wash clothes in half the time I used to because it holds so many more clothes. There were bad reviews on it online, but the problems are supposed to be fixed with this new generation. Even so, I say a little prayer for my washer often, just so God knows I love it and am VERY thankful for it, and want it to keep running like new for a looonnnnnnnng time!!!!

I'm thankful for my eBay sales of course! The postal lady doesn't even ask for my ID when I take the international packages to the PO anymore. She just says, yea, I know who you are, lol!!! Yesterday she yelled to the manager when I walked in, "She's gonna need more mail buckets", and they were waiting at the door for me when I left. It's too funny!!!

I'm thankful that God has given our Church so many great people who want to work with kids and help with VBS. I'm amazed At all that turn out each night to do whatever needs to be done! God is blessing our church and we are priviledged to be a part of His wonderful work!!!

I'm thankful that God helps me manage my time when I ask Him to. Otherwise, I would never make it this week with everything that needs to be done! Somehow He helps me get the important stuff taken care of :-D

I'm thankful that Bobby cleaned out the fridge and cabinets again. For that reason alone, he's not allowed to move out until I'm dead! Unless he'll come back home and do it for me, then I'll consider letting him leave when he's 40.

I'm thankful that Sarah is getting better. That big ole hole in her leg is getting smaller and smaller, and looks great. Thank God that she decided to listen and do what she was told this time, even though it put a MAJOR cramp in her style for a while. Little Miss Thing can be a little stubborn sometimes (most of the time!). I know you don't believe me Donnie, but she's not the angel you think she is. She'll tell you herself she has horns holding up her halo, lol!!!!!!!

I'm thankful for my hubby, who's worked 10 hours every day then came home to eat and shower and take off again for VBS. I know he's beat, but once he gets around those kids, you can't tell it! He's great!! He did have to take one day off from work to make it all week, but he worked outside all day so he still didn't get any rest! I think he has energizer bunny batteries in him!!

I'm thankful for our Pastor's wife who didn't get here until June but still planned an awesome VBS on top of moving and taking care of her 4 precious children and all the other crazy stuff she has to deal with. I can see her rolling her eyes when she reads this, but ya know Cassie, you ARE amazing!!!!!! And we do appreciate you and Bryan so much!!!

I'm thankful that this blog is almost done. Between Dreama and Bryan on Facebook, I can't stop wetting myself and my computer chair is starting to stink and I need a shower really bad!!!!!! JUST KIDDING!!! We don't need a sermon on that too, lol!!!

For now, I'll just say that God is SO GOOD! I thank Him for ALL you CRAZY people on Facebook!!

Have a great day!


Rob and Kids last night at VBS!
