Dirt: Hump Day Winter Hate

The weather is awful. Cold, damp and threatening snow. 

We have had two weeks of this. I am a southerner and I loathe cold, damp and snow. 

So on that note...Happy Wednesday! 

We can make it. We can make it. Say it with me...We can make it. 

Gratituesday: The Desert in Winter

Gratituesday during Lent can be a time of reflection. The girls and I attended church Sunday and the message was one of hope. Everyone wanders the desert at some point of our lives. We also all are loved by God and only have to look up to hear Him say so.

I am grateful for a time of reflection.  Winter can be a desert. Lack of sun and interaction that being outdoors brings can make us all a little cranky.

This week's Gratituesday List

• Only 13 more days until day light savings. Hallelujah!
• Hot  tea and a television show is almost the same as going out used to be. Almost.
• Freezer chili  on high school curriculum nights.  
• A wool sock connection is like gold. I happen to have one. 
• Attending a clothing swap with a ton of 30 somethings. Totally fun. 
•  A great church in my neighborhood that the girls and I love. 

Gratituesday: Wine, Exercise and Bookclub

Gratituesday is  back! I have slowly gotten back into my blogging routine. Lots of thoughts rambling around in this head of mine. Harder to put them on the screen. However, I feel better when I do, calmer in the brain area.

Gratitude is something I try to instill in my children as well as in myself. Being a grateful person is hard sometimes. I get caught up in the fairness of things, perceived or real. I live a pretty great life of my own choosing. My kids are amazingly healthy and full of life. My husband loves me and is doing a job he loves. Pretty great, right?

Here is this week's gratituesday list.
