Why Thursdays Can Be Great

I don't think I have ever in my life heard anyone say that Thursday is their favorite day of the week, but here's 10 reasons why this Thursday is pretty awesome:

1. I only have 3 loads of laundry to do instead of the typical 4!

2. The sun is shining! (I'm so happy about it!)

3. It's the last day of January.  The January that never ends and is bitter cold.  There has been snow on the ground every day this month.  Definitely glad that it's the end of the month.

4. My visiting teachers came over today!  (Random happenstance that it's the last day of the month? ;))  And I always love having other adults to chat with.

5. Beckett slept in AND took a nap.  And it's only 1:15 in the afternoon!

6. I washed my sheets.  I can't wait to go to bed tonight.  I love fresh, clean, well tucked in sheets.

7. Chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting.  It makes any day better. 
(Although I'm kind of less excited about it than I would normally be because I have a final weigh in for a weight loss challenge on Monday and I think that this cake is going to ruin my chances of getting to my goal in time)

8. I'm teaching the presidency message lesson in Relief Society this Sunday and so I have been spending extra time just browsing Conference talks and reading scriptures trying to find exactly what I want to talk about.  It's uplifting.  I should do it more often, rather than only when I am getting ready to teach.  :)

9. I ignored the vacuuming for a little while and snuggled Talia and read her a stack of books.  It was good mommy time and I needed some loves from that sassy girl.

10. Did I mention THE SUN IS SHINING?!?
