Gratitude Challenge - Day 23

Today I am thankful for technology.  So far it's:

• allowed me to get some work done all from the comfort of my home (while in my PJ's and slippers too)
• entertained my children while I was getting said work done
• helped my children learn things they didn't already know (yeah for Netflix and Youtube!)
• allowed me to talk to my little brother on the phone for almost an hour (we've both been very busy so it was long-overdue and we had lots to catch up on)
• Add to that, modern conveniences such as a stove rather than an open fire, a dishwasher rather than doing everything by hand, and a washer and dryer so again I don't have to do it by hand and technology has been very good to me today.

Keeping in Touch

For some reason, today has been a day of catching up with friends and family.  I have been on video chats and texting chats with multiple people.  Besides feeling in the loop again, it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.  It's nice to feel important enough for someone to carve a little part of their day out just to chat with you. 

I'm also looking forward to it continuing into the weekend.  I've already "scheduled" a video chat with my 1 week old nephew.  Pretty sure he's not going to be doing much talking, but that's ok.  I just want to see his precious little face (and those huge feet too)!
