Thankful Thursday | I gotta go!

February 29

This will be a bit short because I need to leave for an exam. I wanted to get this up so you guys could participate, though!

This week, I am thankful:

for little green leaves

baby leaves.

I'm starting to see them when I go for my walks! Yay!!

that daylight saving time is coming up

It's only a week from Sunday! Sweet.

That will temporarily make early morning walks a challenge, but the days will get longer pretty quickly, and it'll be light out at a decent hour again soon.

And more importantly: it won't be getting dark as early in the evening. I love that!

for the fun I am having in school

This week, I had two all-day sim labs at school, and honestly, they were a lot of fun. I learned so much, and I just always have fun interacting with my classmates and professors.

for the ease of wearing scrubs

Both days I had sim lab, I woke and thought, "Hmm, what should I wear?" And then I had the happy realization that I did not need to waste a single moment picking out something to wear.

Scrubs are simple.

for how much Chiquita likes to be with me

It IS annoying when she wants to be in the way of me typing, but most of the time it's charming how she hangs around me wherever I go.

for bright sunshine

I always, always appreciate this.

for trails by the water

Again...always full of appreciation for this!

for how easy it is to sit down and play the piano

A lot of other instruments require set-up, tuning, plugging in, installing reeds, and so on....but with a piano, you can just sit down and play any ol' time you want. I love that!

for real-life OB experience

As soon as I publish this post, I'm heading off for my second OB/Women's Health exam, and I am thinking that my personal experience with having babies is going to help me out here. We shall see!
