Wednesday's Joys

1. Sleeping in - I didn't go to the gym because of my late night Tuesday night, so I slept in for another couple hours. It was awesome!

2. Hot bath - At lunch I had some extra time on my hands, so I decided to relax for a while. It was kind of chilly yesterday, and one of my favorite things in the world is a nice hot bath. So I turned out all the lights, lit a candle, got a cold drink (to counteract the hotness of the bath) and just relaxed in the bathtub for a few minutes. The good thing about hot baths is that they don't take too long. About 15 minutes and you're good.

3. Maia - Maia is one of my good good friends here on campus, and talking with her always cheers me up. I was relating a painfully embarrassing story to her and she validated my feelings and totally brought me back to what I already knew. It was awesome. She's so encouraging.

4. Jim - Jim is one of the regulars at Joe's, and probably the most opinionated guy I know. While the first part of our conversation drove me nuts and just made me angry and withdrawn (I just don't like arguing nearly as much as I used to), the last part was pretty awesome. I love seeing how God is pursuing Jim without Jim even knowing it. It was encouraging to hear some of his thoughts and perspectives.

5. Deviled Eggs - I like them. We had them for lunch. End of story.

Yum, can I get some of those deviled eggs?! And sleeping in and taking a hot bath sounds wonderful! Way to take advantage of those opportunities! Fun to learn about the joys you find throughout your day. Love you, my friend. You were on my heart this morning while I was listening to my newly developed play list on my morning run. I still need some good music recommendations. :) Hope you find even more joy in today!
