I worry for all of our sisters and brothers caught in the horrible storms. I hope that they all do well and come out safe. I keep them in my thoughts today.
That being said, I enjoy the beauty of this morning. The winds are almost raging outside, the trees swaying, the leaves rustling. My poor little tree out front is almost on its side at times, leaning over almost to the ground with each strong gust of wind. The energy in the air that says rain and perhaps storms are on their way. There are dark clouds beyond the trees out back towards the west and draped down towards the south. I have the back door open and the front windows thrown wide letting the wind flow through this stale house. It is wonderfully refreshing feeling the breeze on my toes and shoulders as I sit here typing.
Ahhhh....It's absolutely beautiful this morning. I am thankful for the wind, for the rain, for todays beauty. Today will be a very blessed day.
I don't have much planned today. I have to get off here soon and do the dishes. Then I thought of herding the children upstairs so that they could work on their room and I could do some cg work on the comp upstairs (where I wound up putting my paint shop pro). Of course that's if the power decides to stay on. If not I will be found on the back porch reading while my children die of sheer boredom...LOL.
I probably won't do much cleaning today as the boys will just destroy it anyway. I've started holding off on the weekend cleaning and saving it for the week while the children are at school. (I do the dishes and clean up any major messes and perhaps wash some clothes.) It's so much easier that way. I just hope no one ever decides to just pop by on the weekend...LOL. I hate to have people over when I know my house is horrible. But doing things this way will de-stress me some. And that's really what I need right now.
De-stress...
Well, I am off, the dishes are calling.
May your day be full of wonderful blessings as mine will be!
