Happy Labor Day!  I hope everyone is enjoying a day off and if you’re working today, thank you for your hard work!

Today I’m thankful for the following:

1. I’m thankful for a day off.  So far, I’ve enjoyed Labor Day by making breakfast, going for a 5 mile run with my husband, and doing laundry.  This evening we’re going to cook-out with my in-laws for dinner.
2. I’m thankful for a good friend and his expertise regarding HVACs.  Our friend Robert has helped us diagnose broken coils/leaks in two of our air conditioning units and he is hopefully going to help us fix them which will save us alot of money.  I’m very thankful for the time and effort he has put in to help us.
3. I’m grateful for my health.  I recently quit taking a medication I’ve been on for nearly a decade and it looks like a side effect of that combined with exercise and a healthy diet is finally helping me to lose weight.  I’m at my lowest weight since 2007 and feel great!
4. I’m thankful for a short week at work.  One of the great things about a 3 day weekend is a 4 day week!
5. I’m thankful for the labor of everyone throughout history who we should remember today on Labor Day.

Have a great week!
