Saturday night I felt like I was coming down with a slight cold, and by Sunday I felt very tired. It took until around Friday before I started to feel better. I pretty much shelved my list of goals for the week. Since I was resting, though, I decided to read. I read 5 books…

I am grateful that technology has allowed me to teach from my home.
I am thankful for helping hands that put together a funeral luncheon for a woman in our community. Sweet people to work with, help out, and get to know better.
I am thankful for living in a wonderful community with kind neighbors.
