Yesterday it was snowy and sunny! I literally had an exhilerating feeling like I get when I go on a sweet hike, like on the Dingle Peninsula, or a day at the beach playing aerobie, or that feeling you get when you know you were born to do something and you're loving every milli-second, like on the basketball court.
And so I sat out in a Cabela's lawn chair yesterday with my nano and just soaked it up! Fresh, clean, crisp, excellent! Beautiful!
The clocks fell back and I was greeted with a dusky blue morning today. Huge snow flakes have been falling continuously all morning and all day as Casey and I do some serious lounging. The fire going, football tv in the background, dogs lazy, hot chocolate, silver dollar pancakes, a puzzle! WOO! Puzzle! Awesome! Hahahahhahaha!
Anyone remember one of So I Married an Axe Murderer's best scenes where the psycho sister asks Mike Myers if he would like some "silver dollar pancakes and fresh squeezed orange juice" and he nervously says yes.
Next scene, loud fruit loops in a bowl with, "We didn't have any of those other things." [stern look to Myers]
Heeeeeeeeerrrrrre's Storm! Mini-Bo, smaller head, really a twinky twin to Bo but with a different fun loving cute face! :)
Anyways, Casey and I have a continual appreciation of days like this. After all we had been dreaming of these days for years while enduring a time of Chowchilla service. Even there though we appreciated every drop of rain in that central California desert. There's just something about inclimate weather that forces you inside your newly built home to be comfortable and content with life! By the way, rain in Chow was inclimate weather that caused no one to come out to the winter sporting events.
We get to use the porch banister as a precipitation gauge for now, until it fall offs.
Well, who knew precipitation could inspire such philosophy in my mind today. Maybe you can embrace your day a little more, in some way, in some gratitude, in your world and in your way today. God is good - enjoy the extra hour of life!
