give thanks 5

1. We have recently declared Thursdays to be screen-free days at our house. That means no TV, no video games and no computer. The whole day. Well, I am totally cheating by coming on here to blog but I asked Dave and he gave me permission. :) Let me tell you, I am very thankful for my computer. There's nothing like spending a whole day without it to confirm how totally addicted I am.

2. Yet again, the weather was just so glorious today. I'm thankful for that on a screen-free Thursday, my children were able to spend basically the whole afternoon outside.

3. This note of gratitude is a little sad actually. Anne woke up with a fever but was acting pretty normal for her in the morning. However, she must not be feeling well because she actually took a two and a half hour nap this afternoon. I'm not grateful that she is sick but since she normally takes 20 minute naps, those two hours were beyond wonderful.

A two and a half hour nap and no computer? I'm just imagining all I could get done...

Sorry to hear she's sick again!

I get no TV and no video games, but I don't get no computer. Especially when there is work to be done on that screen. But then, maybe if you really are addicted.
