it does a body good

Paulo had 2 days in a row off yesterday and today. It's amazing to see how different he is after getting some good old fashioned rest! My miracle today is rest- by just slowing down our bodies and minds, we can keep going at the daily grind for years on end! We are the ORIGINAL Energizer Bunnies!!!

i can't breathe!

It's a miracle we can breathe in Salt Lake City. The air sucks. It'll be a miracle if the weather ever blows this smog out of the valley.

It's also a miracle that I didn't crash while taking this picture.

Attention Span....

Today I started my 3 week training for my new job. It's a miracle that I was able to sit through hours and days of classroom lectures while going to college, and actually GRADUATE.

Sharing Time

Today during Sharing Time, which is during the 3rd of 3 hours of church for us, I witnessed the miracle called "reverence" That 50 plus children between the ages of 6 and 11 can sit and listen for any length of time is amazing. Put it at the end of 3 hours when it's time for lunch and they're all hungry and have probably gone without a nap (if necessary), now that's miraculous!!!

I had to include this picture- I was taking a picture and Rex was really curious. He's so funny!

Endless Love....

Today the husband and I went out and had a great time. Eternal marriage is my miracle today.

TGIF

Even though I haven't worked an entire work week for about 3 months now, there is still something sweet about Fridays. Everyone is happier and more willing to go the extra mile. I'm excited that it's Friday, and this is the last Friday of my unemployment.

YAAAAAAAAY!!!

My miracle today was . . . . . . . . . . . . ice Cream. There is a new Ice Cream place in Centerville called "Sub Zero"- if you haven't been there, you should check it out. They make your ice cream for you right in front of you. It was heaven.

Time is a gift

The average length of official unemployment increased to 24.5 weeks, the longest since government began tracking this data in 1948. The number of long-term unemployed (i.e., for 27 weeks or more) has now jumped to 4.4 million, an all-time high. (http://online.wsj.com/article/SB124753066246235811.html)

Today, my miracle is that I am back to work after a (relatively) short 12 weeks.
