I’m sorry that this one is late. Yesterday was full of house cleaning and friends so I had no time to sit down and write this. But here is is, better late than never.
Here’s what I’m thankful for this week:
Our time in Adelaide
We had a wonderful time in Adelaide, catching up with some family and friends. We didn’t get to see everyone, and for that we are disappointed, but this did mean we didn’t completely tire ourselves out hopping from one appointment to another. It was lovely to be back in our familiar places, hanging out with old friends, having meals with our families. We are both looking forward to returning to Adelaide after we’ve finished at college.
Being home again
But as nice as it was to be in Adelaide with friends and family, it’s also nice to be home, in our own bed, with our full wardrobe, our own bathroom. Not that I didn’t appreciate the spaces that our parents made available to us. There’s just something about being in your own home, where your things are packed away into cupboards and not a suitcase. Now that we’re home I’ve been watching some TV, reading and relaxing before we go back to college next week.
Time with friends
Yesterday we spent the afternoon with friends in town, walking through some of the Botanic Gardens and then visiting the Art Gallery. Though we’ve been here for a year and a half, we still haven’t seen many of these things of this city. Afterwards we had our friends over to our place for dinner. It was lovely spending time with these friends. They shared with us things we didn’t know about the Gardens or the Gallery. They we’re patient with us as we finished preparing dinner, and we just enjoyed chatting and sharing our lives. We are thankful for these friends.
What are you thankful for this week?
