I choose to be thankful that . . .
- I didn't fall asleep while driving for 2+ hours around the interstate, desperately trying to get Mr. Smiley to sleep, despite his double ear infection.
- I resisted temptation and didn't stop to get a Crap-A-Chino to keep me awake and reward myself. I didn't go by any open Starbucks, though I know they exist at 3 AM.
- Even though I HATE drugs, there are pharmacies that are open in the middle of the night.
- Mr. Smiley has nursed a long time (17+ months). I won't take it personally or feel like a failure if my milk dries up because it is so uncomfortable for him to nurse right now.
I am thankful for . . . .
- Seeing Mr. Smiley actually smile today.
- That Hottie Hubbie and I work well together as a team.
- I might be getting a new dishwasher tonight. Hottie Hubbie is looking at them presently.
- Date night is tonight (a stay-at-home date night, that is)
- It is a beautiful day.
- My Chai was good this morning. And yes, I had caffeine.
- Sometimes my herbs and essential oils actually do work and bring comfort.
Please leave a thankful comment at these lovely ladies who are also blogging about thankfulness . . .

I hope Mr. Smiley's ear infections clear up soon! They are no fun! We've had a few around here, but thankfully never double ear infections.
Hopefully the new dishwasher works out for you too, I don't know what I'd do without mine!
Oh, it's your little man who has the ear infections? Poor guy - and tired mama!
Sounds like a good night to spend time with your hubby at home... Hope you all get some much needed rest tonight!

I am glad Mr. Smiley is smiling again! Poor little guy - I hope he isn't quite as miserable any more & you all can rest! Good for you for avoiding the Starbucks - though I'm not sure I could have been that strong as you were!! WTG! :)
Enjoy your evening - It sure was a gorgeous day here too - sun, warmth, open windows, children playing outside.
So sorry you had a really rough night last night. We did too...Avery was up w/ a cough part of the night. Poor little guys! I will pray that you ALL have a restful night tonight. I'm impressed that you drove around for 2 HOURS! WOW! I wouldn't have the stamina to drive that long even during the day. Get to feeling better Mr. Smiley!
