My boss, Gary, was out of the office on Monday and Tuesday. He was in the office today, but will be gone again Thursday and Friday. 8 hours. That is all he is in the office this week. Not much time. So... On Tuesday afternoon I sent him an email that stated (in bullet points) everything he needed to get done in that 8 hour time period on Wednesday. Luckly, we work well together, and he appreciated my blunt - bullet point - email! I do know, however, that not everyone would! Ha! I'm grateful for him and the way we work so well together.
I went to a Women's Conference not long ago and won a door prize! This door prize is a Baked Potato Bag. Does anyone else have one of these? They are awesome! I don't know if I'm sheltered in the baked-potato-world or not, but I've never heard or seen these before. Basically, it is a pouch, sewn together, that holds potatoes. You use this bag in the microwave and the outcome is seriously the best baked potato! Ever. I don't know why or how - but the potato is fully cooked through, light and fluffy and the skin is nice too - not hard, or wrinkly. I'm now eating baked potatoes every week. I'm grateful for the little things in life.
Here is a picture of my new Corkscrew Rush plant. It makes me smile.
Yesterday, my other boss, Kay another co-worker and I went on a field trip. We had to go look at some land for a project. After that, we went to Starbucks where Kay treated us. We sat in comfy chairs and talked and laughed. I'm grateful for spontaneous afternoon adventures.
This evening, I went on a walk after church with a friend. It was a very nice night. I am grateful for these nights (it won't be long until it is super humid and hot) and for friendships.
The end - for now...!
