Blessings in the murk :)
Even though the campaign work is crazy and stressful and fun and hideously tiring all at once, a friend did playfully challenge me to make this month a month of thankfulness rather than a month of ungratefulness. :) [Yes, even when I'm so tired my head feels floaty.] So, in an effort to smile past the shabby bits, I'm starting a sort of "One Thousand Gifts" list for this month.

Eeeeeee! There I am! #14! *swoons*
ReplyDeleteHaha! I am thankful for you too, Rachel. :D I will email you those pictures we took at my house soon... I kind of want to edit and play with them a little first! :D

Good luck on all things campaigning-related! :)
Hugs,
Julia
I have to ask... what goes into a steak n' shake milkshake???
ReplyDeleteLoving your list of blessings!
