thankful: twenty-seven

yesterday's rough day kind of spilled over into today, if i'm being honest. i spent much of my afternoon wringing my hands and stressing myself out. not proud of it. but it's true

then my friend Linette--whom i hadn't seen since September--called and asked if i wanted to go to dinner. (and it was Mexican food--even better!) for two hours, we sat and talked and caught up. and laughed. real, honest-to-goodness, from deep down in my soul laughed. i so needed it.

so today i am thankful for laughter. i'm thankful for joy and friends and jokes and Mexican food. i'm thankful for the chance to laugh myself into a better mood.
