You have an instrument and a song, and you owe it to God to play them both sublimely. – Max Lucado

Thank you for making me so wonderfully complex!
It is amazing to think about. Your workmanship is marvelous.
– Psalm 139:14

So random and with absolutely no flow, my gratefuls are today:

• Memories of little white paper sacks and the sounds they made when the clerk opened them up to put candy in from the Haven Drug Store glass case
• Memories of summer nights at the Broncs games in Hutchinson
• The sound of an ice cold can of Dr. Pepper being popped open
• Seven more days until my trip begins and I see my grandchildren!
• A 95 minute phone call with Geri last night
• The way this expression “rougher ‘n a corn cob” sounded so funny until I learned the meaning behind it

• Watermelon in October
• A clean load of dishes in the dishwasher
• Anticipation for a great evening tonight, seeing “Straight No Chaser” in concert
• Watching the crowd at the K erupt in cheers and high fives as the boys in blue dominated last night
• Chocolate cookies with peanut butter chips
• This song:

  Happy!

• The sound of tap shoes
• Hardware store employees who know everything there is to know about gadgets
• And finally, getting off work early to go to a concert, an incredible way to spend a World Series Travel Day evening!
