Alright, Day Two of Giving Thanks....
I kind of have a lot today.
First, I'm thankful for this 4 day weekend we get and not feeling guilty for being less productive than I usually am. Lounging around with my roommate, Caitlin, watching Lifetime movies (yes, that is correct, they pull us in every time) is actually a really good waste of a day.
Second, I love spontaneous trips to Comayagua (a city 30 minutes from us) for PIZZA HUT! (We also got Dunkin Donuts on the way home - equally wonderful!) To go along with that, I'm really thankful for my friends, Nikki and Kenneth Snipes. They're a great newlywed couple who are always fun to spend time with. I love their hearts for Christ and for serving Him by serving the people of Honduras. Kenneth came down here with Nikki even though he didn't have a job lined up. Nikki came to teach at the school, but together they only bring in one income. It wouldn't be SO bad, except Kenneth drives back and forth to another town that is about 25 miles away every day, so they spend a lot of money on gas alone. The way they trust God to provide always encourages me. I'm so thankful to have them as friends here, and to know that long after this time we have together here ends, I know we will not lose touch with each other. Anyways, I just can't say enough good things about them, they're super wonderful people!
Third, I'm thankful for jamming to country music while driving down the road. Yes, I said it. I'm not one of those who LOVES country music, nor do I go out of my way to listen to it, but for some reason I know a lot of the songs and still end up singing along to them. It must be because so many of my friends from back home are all in love with it. Whatever the reason, it felt good to belt the songs out as we drove home from Pizza Hut.
