Gratitude in a Change of Plans
I'm finished. And yet, the week has just begun!
I have everything I need to make dinner on Thursday and I do not plan to be in (or anywhere near!) a grocery store or shopping center until next Monday.
Do you think I can do it?
We are also celebrating a birthday this week. The Mister is turning another year older (and more good looking) and I am planning a birthday feast for Wednesday. To say we are going to eat well this week is an understatement.
To my great surprise, our Thanksgiving plans changed quickly this weekend, and we will have the privilege to share Thanksgiving with long-time friends.
Providence has gathered a group of us, all from Arizona, but living (and visiting) in North Carolina. It all came together in a 12-hour flurry of emails and texts, and I amazed that a party of nine will sit at a table in the Little Yellow House on the Hill.
I couldn't have planned this in advanced if I had tried. I just feel thankful to have received an invitation.
