This morning, as I approached the exit ramp onto the interstate and saw that the bumper to bumper traffic had started much sooner than it was supposed to, I was very resentful of my morning commute. However, the more I thought about it, the more my attitude changed from resent of the commute to a gratefulness that there is a commute. That commute means I still have a job.

Just coming out of a rather rainy weekend, today is one of those days when I would just rather be outside. Oh well. Responsibilitiy prevails. However, I am thankful for the beautiful weather on days like today - a nice mix of blue sky and a few clouds, similar to this.

I have had a lot of things to be thankful for, but I have just not had the time to write about them. Some things that immediately come to mind: my family, the NBA playoffs (go Bulls!), warm weather, and my wife (a recurring theme). She is a stay-at-home mom, and I think that what they do often goes unnoticed and unappreciated by many, when in fact, they really are the CEOs of their respective families. Thanks, B, for everything you do!

I cannot remember where this quote came from, but I have been thinking about it a lot lately. “But by the grace of God go I.”

I am thankful that I was able to resolve the issue I had with the lights on my stairs with a simple replacement of the downstairs light switch. I am also thankful that steaks on the grill at home actually cost less (and are much healthier and taste better) than taking the whole family out to McDonalds.

I am thankful that the cost of what I call “good enough computing” has exponentially decreased. For example, for the cost of an Apple Watch ($600), you could buy a Moto 360 ($250), a Moto E ($150) and an HP Stream 11 ($200).

Sometimes life is busy. I had a business trip to Texas, immediately followed by a family vacation to Washington, D.C. I am thankful that the business trip went well, we had a lot of fun in D.C. and that we are now home safe. Now I'm tired. I need a vacation from my vacation. :-)

I am thankful that God loved the world enough that he gave his son, Jesus. For whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have eternal life. (John 3:16) I am thankful that this gift is for everyone. Not those he "chooses", but for everyone who chooses Him.
