When the dishwasher breaks you know what you are made of. Do you throw a fit, let them stack up or simply get out the plug, fill er' up and play in the bubbles?
Life sometimes requires us to be domestic and I figure I may as well look cute while I'm at it. I cleaned today, but mostly I just relaxed, wrote two friends long letters, groomed one of my dogs and watched a little t.v. and caught up on magazine reads...ah...bliss!
Sometimes when the boat rocks and we are tired or scared, we look out the window and know who is there...
A time for relection as I sit and look out my front window. I'm so thankful that we gained favor and were able to keep our front yard. The little frogs will be back in the spring, we were asked to plant some more little bushes but that is all, it's just more good places for gnomes to roam...At the end of the day I sigh and say, God is near and all is well.

ReplyDeleteGod is near my dear sister friend and all is well with our souls...yours and mine....praying for you. I wrote you a long letter in the wee hours of the night...I will have it in the mail soon.
ReplyDeleteBlessings sent on the wings of a prayer.
Hey Girl with the Curl,
ReplyDeleteThanks for the wise encouragement. For me, an early morning prayer walk is one of best faith restoratives.
Blessings to you my friend, and say hi to Len.

Spring looks like it will be making an appearence here before too long, and I am SO HAPPY your Gnomes will be joining mine again in the front yard!!! My fellows are hibernating during the Winter but will be out in full force as the weather warms! And just about that time, another little Gnome will be coming into a brand new world, won't he!!!! Love to you, Gramma Jackie!!!!
