Texas Lou

Good morning and welcome to my Thankful Monday post for the week!

Today, I am thankful for the following:

1. I’m thankful for strong and able bodies that allowed Ben and I to get a great deal of work done on both our house and condo this weekend.  We are that much closer to be unpacked in the house and having the condo ready to rent.
2. I’m thankful to live in a smaller city like Charlottesville where it’s easy to run into friends and acquaintances   Last week I went to lunch with an old friend and ran into several good people I used to work with at VGT.  It was so nice to catch up with them and just see their smiles!
3. I’m thankful for my husband.  He brought me tulips, one of my favorite flowers, last week unexpectedly to say thank you for all of the hard work I have done to get us moved.  It’s so nice to know he appreciates me and even better to see him show his appreciation!
4. I’m thankful that University of Virginia students are done for the summer.  There are so many parts of Charlottesville that are very enjoyable once students have gone home and places and events are less crowded as well!
5. I’m thankful that we may be getting our first house guest,  my brother, this coming weekend, and I’m also thankful for a long weekend!  I think I might sleep in!

Happy week!
