Help Me Have That Grateful Heart

The ground has traces of snowflakes.  They're not melting anymore.  I'm sitting here with my cup of hot chocolate trying to warm up my hands.  I hear the cows bellering.  Maybe they're hungry.  Its after 8 and the two youngest are still in bed.  I should get them up, but I kinda like the quiet right now.


Its a very cool day with gusty north winds.  I'd like to stay in but I think it's a "go to town day".  Barn chores, paperwork, bills, groceries, finding my honey some work (a load for the flatbed, I can officially be called dispatcher now.), reinforcing rafters, support beams, fixing a broken sewer line and banking the new basement, these are the items on my list today.  Then a 4-H meeting tonight.  I'd rather, spin some, finish up the mittens  I started, make some Christmas wreaths, finish the sewing projects I started, grind some wheat and make some bread, and make the granola that my oldest requested this morning.  I need more organization.  Instead I'm on here.  I guess I need some recreation, too.


I pray, God bless this day and use it to your glory.  Help me not to detract from that glory, but to point people to it.

It's been a while since I blogged or even checked in with others, but since LakeLady tagged me, I was "forced" to get back at it. Enjoyed this post of yours. Hope you enjoy this tag. Rules are at my blog.
