Day 20, January 20: Bob's Produce

Cub is great, but shopping for groceries in a small grocery store is a better experience. Fresh produce, fresh fruit and more made me smile today.

Day 19, January 19: Learning with Farmington

Today we met with our colleagues from Farmington.  It was good learning and sharing between the two districts.  Looking forward to continued collaboration between the two districts - it mad me smile today.

Day 18, January 18: Thankful for bookstores

Tonight I needed to get out, I went to Barnes and Noble.  While I buy almost all of my books for the Kindle, every once and awhile I like to go to Barnes and Noble.  When I go, I don't walk out with a lot of books, but rather a phone full of new pics of books I want to read.  Tonight I am thankful for time to gather new photos of books I want to read.

Day 17, January 17: Thankful for dropping gas prices

Today I needed gas really bad - was pleasantly surprised to pull into Sam's Club and find the price per gallon to be only $1.55. I filled my tank for under $20, I am thankful for that.

Day 16, January 16: Thankful for my Chromecast

I bought a Chromecast when it first came out. $35 to stream to my tv, what could be better. While I don't use it to stream movies as I have a Smart TV, I do stream Ben's games on my big screen, for that I am thankful.

Day 15, January 15: Thankful for my nurse

Not feeling the best today, but i am thankful for my nurse.  She is great at snuggling and models great napping techniques.  She knows to stay close just in case I need her - thankful for my great care today.

Day 14, January 14: Thankful for empathy

On Monday, the first graders at Northpoint, one of the K-3 buildings in Spring Lake Park, wrote letters to Blair Walsh as part of a lesson on Empathy.  Today he(and several news outlets) visited with the students as a thank you. The focus on teaching the important life skill of empathy is something I am thankful for today.
