Little Blessings from Today
After the rough night I had the other night, I think God showed me a happy day today.
This morning I was rushing out the door, wishing I had some bread for toast - something for breakfast. But, I had no bread, and no time to bake any either, so I grabbed a granola bar and that tided me over.
Then, at one of my stops, the bread vendor for that store had a lot of returns that he had credited to the store and was reluctant to truck around with him all day, so he offered them to whoever wanted to grab them!
I thanked him, and helped myself to two loaves of bread - one white & one wheat/whole grain - and also some cinnamon rolls & doughnuts for the guys at work.
I was quite hungry by then, so I ate a couple doughnuts (well, three - one of each variety (coconut, chocolate, and powdered sugar), then I was thirsty. I thought I'd tough it out until I could get to a water fountain, but then the dairy vendor was going to throw out a bunch of assorted milk jugs. He offered me my pick of the lot, and I chose a small (half gallon) banana-flavored milk ( I joked that it better not come from monkeys) - it was delicious!
The rest of the day went smoothly - no upset customers, no close calls while driving around town, my evening job was easy & fast, and a friend from work called me to tell me about "the world's largest snake" that will be on a late-night talk show.
Talked to a friend on the phone, and got a nice email from another friend :)
Oh, and I've just been offered a tremendous deal on a snake I've been trying to obtain - I'll have to see if it all checks out!
Yeah, one more - finally found "Monday, Monday, Monday" by Tegan & Sara :)
So, little reminders in case I forgot God is concerned with my happiness...
I get it - don't let me forget it!
