30 Thankful Days in Photos: Day 6

I imagined some days would be harder than others to blog about what I'm thankful for. Today I have waited until the last minute to post something. I've actually had a wonderfully relaxing Saturday. Jer spent most of the day doing homework. I played video games for a bit, then read my book. It was lightly raining outside and I sat curled up on the couch, a blanket over my lap, reading by the light coming in through the picture window. I was soon fast asleep.
I never take naps. It has been so many months since I've taken a nap, I really don't remember the last time I did. It's not like I stayed up really late last night. I woke up at a reasonable time for a Saturday: about 9:00am. It was nice to have Jer home all day even though he was busy on the computer most of the day.
After dinner (I have been cooking dinner every day lately!), we sat on the couch to watch the latest Netflix movie we got in the mail. My Netflix queue is so long, I don't really bother visiting it very often. So, each time I get a movie, it's a surprise. Tonight we watched "The Abandoned." It was terrible. I'm sure I added it to my queue because it was a Netflix suggestion. Whatever the reason, I recommend staying as far away from this movie as you can. There was no plot, no-name actors, boring script--the perfect makeup of a 'B' movie. I would say it was a complete waste of time except it wasn't. I got to snuggle with my man for 1 1/2 hours on the couch!
Whatever the movie, I'm thankful for Netflix! The best thing about Netflix is that we can keep the movies as long as we want, and they have the largest selection to rent from. I love getting a movie in the mail and opening it up to see what we got. Simple pleasures can sometimes be the best things.

Sounds like a fabulous Saturday! Too bad about the crappy movie. At least you have another surprise to come soon! :D
