Monday Morning

Busy at it already at 6:15 a.m.

Lots to do on my to-do-list.

And, I'm glad for Monday morning to have to do it!

Oh, yes, I'm a fan of early Monday mornings.

I'm very grateful for them.

Spring

The blossoms are budding out on trees.

The crocus peek up through the dirt....

Of course, these remind me each year of dear Margaret Emery, who sent them to me many years ago.  They last so short, but they are such a great reminder to me of a dear friend.

It's so beautiful.

And, I am grateful.

My Brother, Preston

He's such a good, good guy.

He calls, he corresponds, he cares.

He's a good one...I feel so blessed

And, I am grateful.

HEALTH!

I've said it before,

Will say it again.

I'm grateful for my health.

It's such a blessing.

And, I am beyond grateful.

Time to Run Errands

Okay, a pile of mail.

Finances to work on.

Clothes to the dry cleaners.

A trip to the bank.

Lots of things to do today.

And, I'm grateful for the TIME!

Safe Trip

we're HOME!

I love home.

I had a couple of emotional blows on this trip;

something I never thought would be a part of my life.

I'm feeling like I had a blow to the side of my head.

I'm quite numb, actually.

I need time to recoup and work through some things.

Oh, man, life is so tough!

But, we are home.

Safe and sound.

And, I am grateful.

My Testimony

I've been shaken to the very core...

I've been rattled....

I'm in a funk.

But, I'm very grateful for my strong sure testimony.

I cannot let others affect my beliefs.

And, I am grateful.
