feeling grateful

It's absolutely no surprise to all who know me how much I {love} coffee! Well, this is the time of year for one of my favorites to be available at Starbucks. Yup, the Gingerbread Latte. Heavenly.

Well, I have been having a downright rotten week. You know, one of those weeks where you just wish it would hurry up and be over so you could just forget about it. So, I was absolutely surprised and oh so grateful when my cousin Judy showed up at work the other day with a Gingerbread Latte for me. Totally. Made. My. Day. Seriously. I'll tell ya, that woman is a complete mind-reader. One sip of that sweet goodness, and my whole day was transformed. {My middle school students were very happy about that too!}. Thanks Judy!

Then, just last night, hubby was being a sweetheart and offered to take me to Starbucks on our way home from some shopping. There's a drive-thru Starbucks nearby, so that's where we went. We placed our order, and once we pulled up to the window, we were told that the car in front of us paid for our drinks. I was shocked! I wish we could have thanked them.

Feeling blessed this week.
