Baked Goods
The ninth thing I am thankful for is fresh baked goods! (Which I eat in copious amounts during emotional trials and/or a very stressful day)

Warmth
The seventh thing I am (especially) thankful for is having a roof over a warm bed with very cozy blankets!
Sandy may be pouring rain on the world outside my door, but inside, I can almost pretend it's just another rainstorm...

Weekend Edition
The fifth thing I'm thankful for is date night! [I meant to post this when I got home from date night, but I forgot. whoops!] The best part of date night is having a valid excuse to ignore my computer, my email, and my cellphone and not be accused of ignoring people. I ignore my cellphone all the time, but it's nice to have an acceptable reason.
The sixth thing I'm thankful for are Sunday afternoons! I know this isn't entirely kosher. I know that I should be keeping the Sabbath Holy, resting, praying, all that jazz, but sometimes I relish the opportunity to work on a project. In this case, the projects related to Sunday School and Church. I'm not sure that makes it more acceptable, but regardless, I feel good about today.

Problems
whoops, forgot to post this yesterday...
The second thing I'm thankful for are my problems! I'm thankful that my biggest problems include misplacing my keys, or my cellphone. Things could be much worse!

Africa
Long time no post, eh? Life has, as always, been very busy and hectic. But hectic in the most delightful way!
Including today, there are 30 days until Thanksgiving: cue the "in everything give thanks" 2012 Thanksgiving Edition!
The first thing I'm thankful for is that after four years, 8 injectable vaccines, and countless prayers, I'm going to South Africa!!!
'"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future."' - Jeremiah 29:11 [NIV]
It's been a very long journey. I'm nervous and anxious, but also extremely excited for what this adventure will bring. If you'd like to follow my journey here.
