Weekend Blessings…
I would have pictures for you this weekend but I cannot find my camera and considering that I cleaned my room this weekend I find this a bit worrisome. I am sure that it will eventually turn up though.
Things I have been blessed by this weekend…
Sleep…
Friends who come over for breakfast on Friday mornings and the fellowship that we have together over cheese toast, cinnamon rolls, and eggs…
Long walks through the Al Ain Oasis followed by getting lost coming out the opposite side and having to find my way home…
Sunscreen, which keeps the Arabian sun from turning me into a piece of leather…
Cold showers after long walks…
Couches upon which to lie while watching movies with friends…
The fact that the Emiraties love American food chain and that I can go to Chili’s for dinner and eat shrimp tacos…
Brenda’s cable recording device and the ability to watch American Idol all the way over here…
Moments when I am filled with an insane desire to clean my room before going to bed…
Sleep…and recordings of the Psalms…
Saturday mornings of freedom…
Cleaning cupboards…
Laundry that needs to be done…and then is done…
The fun of house cleaning with my awesome roommate…
The blessing of a job I can go to and also days where God allows it to be slow and a manager who says I can go home since there are more nurses than patients for a change…
A gifted afternoon of freedom…
Trips to the mall, new clothes, and Pink Berry…
Dinner with friends…and fresh, homemade salsa…
Silly movies that make you laugh…
Talks with your roommate that makes your soul happy and brings healing…
A clean room to fall asleep in and a bed that is comfortable, pillows, and a teddy bear that came with me from home…
In case you were wondering, I had a wonderful weekend. I will be able to return to work refreshed tomorrow. Praise God for His marvelous gifts!!!
Alhamdulillah!!!
