Last week was a rather interesting one of one step forward and two steps back. It would be easy to complain or even dwell on the frustrations or negative but there were many blessings to be thankful for. The ever changing water view had a real calming and comforting effect that was very much appreciated. One of our kids finally received the much awaited for news so there was a ripple of excitement throughout the family. Our second grandbaby's arrival is quickly approaching so that is adding to the excitement. The kitchen renovations hit a bit of a snag so we decided to finish up one accent wall on the upper level and prep the "we're not sure what we're going to use it for" but was "good livingroom" for painting. The goal is to have the room presentable for two large get togethers this weekend. My health problems are persisting so I'm hoping things improve this coming week. But the sun has been shining more and the promise of warming weather coming is enough to lift the spirits.

ReplyDeleteSend the ducks down here - our back yard is so wet right now they'd have a ball! :-)

ReplyDeleteA new baby is indeed exciting.
ReplyDeleteHope you are soon feeling better.
It seems that on the coast of NC, we had spring in February and now are having winter. That is okay, summer will come.
You have an uplifting attitude. It is sometimes hard to see the blessing, but they are there.
ReplyDeleteI hope your health improves or stabilizes quickly.
Thanks for all the well wishes and positive thoughts!
