I list, mentally or on paper, my day's routine and agenda, my needed grocery items, my school assignments, and so on. And sometimes, my life is full of so much good that I just need to list that too...
Things That Have Made Me Happy This Week
- Ultimate Frisbee with my favorite people in my favorite place in my favorite kind of weather.
- A party of 22 of my closest friends packing into a popular restaurant on a Saturday night.
- A new friend telling me that I always "roll with an entourage." Sometimes I need a little reminder that I am immeasurably blessed in the Friend Department.
- Corresponding with old friends after far, far too long.
- God's truth falling in my lap in the strangest places.
- A new praise and worship song shared by a not-so-new friend ("What Do I Know of Holy")
- Singing in front of my church congregation.
- Hugs-- long, hard hugs-- from very best friends.
- Beth Moore. I just can't get enough of her, and consequently I can't get enough of solid Bible study time in my life.
- Making new friends in grad school. I mean, sure... most of them are married with kids, but they genuinely care about me.
- Singing on Wednesdays with a bunch of old men and their bluegrass instruments (just kidding about the "old" thing, Dad...)
- Sookie Stackhouse novels.
- Substitute teaching. I haven't done it much yet, but man... pre-teens and teens are fascinating. They are dumb and wonderful and I love them.
- Spending time with my parents, who are surely the most wonderful, incredible people I know. I wish I had better adjectives than that, but I am truly at a loss.
- Planning a trip to Sweden. Oh yes. I'm going. Watch me go.
- Updating my wish lists on Urban Outfitters and Anthropolgie. (read: go there. buy me things.)
- iChatting with Al!
- And... drum roll, please... looking forward to the future. :)
