a new day

The rain has stopped and the sun is shining brightly in the most beautiful blue sky this morning. I just love the day after a downpour, don't you? There is something about the contrast from gray skies to blue that allows hope to sneak in...

It was such a gorgeous day. Are you off any days soon and want to get a coffee? Let me know. I understand though if you are too busy with the holiday so we can do it after Christmas too.

Hey there, We could use some rain up here. It's been dry since before Thanksgiving and we're three inches below normal in rain totals. I hope whatever is worrying you will work itself out. Take care.

What a great post! Thank you for your sweet outlook on things and for the reminder to enjoy the daily blessings in our lives.
ReplyDeleteI've been busy with family and holiday plans and have missed a few of your posts.
I'll be making time to go back and read them all :)
I did get to read the post about small houses.
I'm learning how to appreciate our small home, and love it.
Our home is around 2000 sq. ft ... the smallest we've ever had.
But, you are right.. editing, working with colors that work all year rounds, and dual purpose areas are just the key to having a charming, cozy and homey cottage :)
Sunny skies after a rain are delightful and I love the smell in the air too.
ReplyDeleteI agree with you ~ it's all in the attitude ;-) It's raining here ~ sigh ~ oh well ~ tra la la ;-)
ReplyDeleteLord bless you Patty, always feel uplifted by your posts
ReplyDeleteLots of love Karen x
Hi Patty~

ReplyDeleteI am sending positive wished your way for whatever it is that is challenging you.
