Thankful Thursday Week 16

What a crazy week this has been...not in the sense that I've had a lot going on, or that I've been running around like a mad woman, but emotionally. I guess, that's one of the things that I've been dealing a lot with lately, are my emotions. We had a great discussion Tuesday night at our small group about what Confidence really is. We're studying a book right now called "Six Steps to becoming a Confident woman," and I'm very excited about it! It's going to be a sweet journey!

So here's this weeks list:

1.) Beautiful summer evenings where you can look up at the sky and see the stars.

2.) Birthday's! I was able to spend my birthday with my family at the shore this year which is not something that I've done in quite a few years and it brought back so many memories!

3.) Chances to mess up and learn from your mess ups. Tonight at band practice, I just wasn't prepared. I was all ready to teach a song, that I wasn't ready to teach, I could sing everything except 2 lines of the whole song, but guess what I needed to know the whole song. I love that I have a church family that loves me even when I royally mess up like tonight! It was such a good experience, because when I don't mess up I get cocky, and that's never a good thing

4.) Birthday's: celebrating life in general is awesome! Life can be over in an instant, and as I'm growing older I'm realizing this more and more!

5.) 2 fun loving dogs called Shelby and Bailey! I've spent a lot of time with these two and they've kept me company while I house sit! They sort of remind me of myself and my brother from when we were growing up because they antagonize each other and then start trying to attack the other....it's pretty hilarious, minus when you're trying to sleep!

6.) Sushi: It was so hot yesterday, and I was trying to figure out what to eat that wouldn't make me hotter, so sushi was what came to mind, and it was fantastic!

7.) Independence

8.) Waiting: I am not a patient person, but apparently I'm suppose to be learning something while waiting for a certain school district to call me back about a job. I really hate waiting, but it goes along with with messing up, the less I have to wait, the less patient I become, the more I have to wait, the better my patience are!

9.) Wonderful Employees at Old Navy that help you get better discounts!

10.) Honesty

It's great to be back at the thankful thursday list! What are you thankful for this week?
