Reading....

Many of you know that I have had a great love of books for my lifetime!  During this season, The Husband and I have been sharing in some special Lenten devotional reading.

Also, we're involved in reading portions of the gospels daily, then participating in a study with others from our church on Wednesday evenings.  Tonight, we're going to try to participate using Zoom.  Have any of you ever had experience with that app?

Are you staying well?  Have you adjusted your routine schedule for being out in public?  Be safe!

Gratitude....

In unsettling times, I find it helpful to focus on gratitude.

Despite my irregular posting on this blog in the past few years, there are still some of you who follow along.  For those of you who continue to check, I am grateful.  Other things on my gratitude list today are:
- the beautiful sky at sunrise
- the washer and dryer that greatly simplify the laundry chores that are childhood memories
- the love of family
- good health
- friends who care
- a good night's sleep
- energy to be about a rather active, demanding schedule today!

If I may send along a little advice....wash your hands, wash your hands, wash your hands!  Oh, and stay home if you are ill!

Sending wishes for all good things to come your way today!
