Wow, it's hard to believe we're at the end of September already. It's time once again to look intentionally for the good things we've been blessed with. Susanne hosts this weekly exercise in gratitude at Living to Tell the Story.
1. Boys' camping trip. My husband, son Jason, and grandson Timothy went camping for a couple of days last week. Everything went well, and the weather was perfect. Timothy loved everything, from fishing, to sleeping in a tent, skipping rocks, swimming--even getting up early to see the sunrise, when he's not usually a morning person. Jim took the RV and slept there, offering for the other guys to come in and sleep if they wanted to or if it got too chilly at night.

2. Visiting the camp site. Mittu and I drove up one afternoon to where they were camping. Jim made his wonderful grilled chicken teriyaki, and Mittu brought some cupcakes. An afternoon was about all I wanted of camping. But it was fun to see Timothy having such a good time.
3. Connections. Lisa mentioned an online game called Connections. It has four rows of four words each, sixteen all together. You're supposed to find four words that have something in common. I like that it's simple and good brain exercise.
4. A dinner invitation. A couple at church invited us to meet them for dinner this weekend. I think that's the first time we've gone out together with someone not family since before Covid. I'm looking forward to it!
5. Impromptu dinner. Mittu texted to ask if they could come over and make dinner last night since we all had plans over the weekend. We enjoyed sloppy joes, fries, zucchini, and chocolate chip cookies and looked over the camping pictures and videos.
How was your week?
