My first Multitude Monday...#1-10

Thankful for:

1. BBC movie adaptations of 19th century British novels, but mostly a husband who enjoys watching them with me.
2. A rainshower that somehow provides emotional relief.
3. The prose of the Apostle Paul's words:  "He...is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead"; "Be not moved away from the hope of the gospel"; "The mystery which hath been hid from ages and from generations, but now is made manifest to his saints." (Colossians 1)
4. Little hands that reach up to touch my cheek or my ears or my chin for comfort's sake as they drift off to sleep.
5. Cheetos.
6. The thrill of planning to buy up the bargains advertised in this week's Walgreens circular. 
7. Naptime. 
8. A friend who instant-messaged me this morning to say "I love you" and "I'm thinking about you today."  (Friend, you know who you are...you have no idea how you have encouraged me today.)
9. The simple allure of olive oil, mushrooms, green peppers...Pasta with homemade sauce for dinner tonight.
10. Thinking about the charity I want to provide at Christmastime this year; it lifts me up to think about what I'll be giving.
