Excited and Thankful

If you are a follower of my blog, you may have seen my post inspired by my good friend, Sheri.  If you didn't see that post, I listed five things I'm thankful for, and five things I'm excited about.  Here's a new list...

5 THINGS I'M EXCITED ABOUT:

• Planning to spend every Friday morning and early afternoon in Manhattan
• Planning to spend a Saturday or two every month going on a hike or an outing away from the city
• Helping a tutoring student with her college search and applications
• How curious my son is about language and vocabulary
• Israeli Couscous, 1 lb. (See all Noodles and Pasta)
   The texture is so good!  It is more like pasta than a grain. YUMMY!

Reading The Zombie Survival Guide in Manhattan.

5 THINGS I'M THANKFUL FOR:

• Good plumbing!
• Charity and goodwill of others (see The Book Samaritan)
• Naps (I am a champion at napping!)
• Strawberries and raspberries in my freezer 
• My family
