Mt. Tire

Sometimes the mundane makes me very happy.  The 76th day of 2019 was one of those days when this statement was true.  For 3/17/19 was not a out of the ordinary Sunday, but a lot happened to make me happy, all mundane.  One of the things that has been bothering me for a bit of a time is that my tire maintenance light has been on since it has been alternating 50s and 20s degree weather.  Well, I finally got to take the van into Mr. Tire and they fixed it.  And not only did they remove a bolt (A BOLT!!!) from one of my tires, but it was covered by warranty and cost me a grand total of $0.00!  So, tonight, I am thankful for Mr. Tire for fixing my tire and or free!

Tonight's prayer for those I care for are for the players of the Penn Women's Basketball Team.  They lost a tough one in the Ivy League Tournament this afternoon.  My prayers of thanksgiving for their season, especially for the Seniors (Ashley, Princess, Kristen, and Deja) and the great basketball they have provided for us.  I also hope that their season can continue in the NCAA Tournament (#TwoBidForIvyLeague) or they go very far in the NIT!

Tonight's prayer for those with whom I have a disagreement is for the Princeton Women's Basketball Team.  I am not happy that they won, at ALL.  But, now that they have, I hope they represent the Ivy League well and I appreciate that their coach advocated for Penn to get a 2nd bid!

Our Family Movie Night to Knives Out!

12/26/19, the 2nd Day of Christmas, and we made it into a Family Movie Night.  On the 360th day of 2019, we went and saw Knives Out! and it was FANTASTIC.  It was a great time out as a family and the movie was as good as advertised (+97% on Rotten Tomatoes).   It just made us all very happy and, because of that, I am grateful for our family movie night to Knives Out!  We have 2-3 more movies we want to see over break, and this was a fine start!

80s Movies

During the Winter Break, we always have a lot of Family Movie Nights.  The 362nd day of 2019 was no different.  But, on 12/28/19, we found 80s movies on the On Demand.  Tonight's selections were Die Hard and St. Elmo's Fire.  CLASSICS!  So happy to be able to share my teenaged movie favorites with my teenager.  I am grateful for 80's movies and the nostalgia they bring up, and the fact that my teen likes them as much as I did/do!

Egg Casserole (from 12/27)

Image
So the 361st day of 2019 brought another Sherr Family Tradition. On 12/27/19,  Sarah  made us the egg casserole recipe that I got from  Beth Hagovsky , a colleague from "the good old days" in Penn Student Affairs. I love the recipe, it is ALWAYS good, and it makes me also remember the community we had way back then, that we still have, occasionally, when we get together, and also as FB friends. The best part about working at Penn has been all of the wonderful people I have met, and this recipe makes me think of them (and, as I said, it is SO GOOD!)  :-)  So, tonight, my gratitude is for Egg Casserole. And the happiness, on so many levels, it provided today.
