My Life

Nature is slowly waking. The snow has melted and gone in certain places and the birds sounding different then in the winter time .life here is peaceful and slow  moving thank God for such blessings with all the turmoil in the world the slow pace is comforting and safe. Here I sit with the warm sun on my face  here there the mist of nature gently touching my skin the Historic glacier Potholes are intense the sound of the waters flow  echoing like a roar of the mountains giving passerbys a breathtaking view. Moments like this are precious and priceless .

Its a cloudy grey  unbearably cold afternoon started off with a beautiful sunny morning as it reflected off the 11 inches of fresh fallen snow ughhhh.. from Sunday and Monday powerful historically winter storm. I spent it at my sister’s house we spent the day with warm cups of tea and movies and prayed the power stayed on. This winter along with all the chaos in the world has been sadly exhausting .I’m sure many agree.  Life is hard and especially now only we could find a peaceful little hole and hide away till the world tries to get it together if only it was that easy. So instead we must think of only today  find the peace and safety in them  when we can and do our best  to find those simple blessings that are given to us and treasure them. As our love ones And pray things will change for the better. but  you can’t forget the  humor in things here is something I found and this got a laugh out of me.

My heart melted along with  snow today the sun and the temps in the mid 40’s felt like Spring . I enjoyed my morning coffee on my porch enjoying the nights rain that fell and the  tiny raindrops that rested on the trees glittered in the morning sun

After coffee and breakfast I jumped into my car  turned up the radio and drove. Found myself on the beautiful walking bridge  below the  water  frozen over here and there was beautif felt good to  to be out walking and feeling the  cool breeze gently blow  through my hair  and nip my cheeks waking my senses to the fresh crisp air. Many were out enjoying the moment  till Mother Nature reminded us of winter once again. So I walked till the tip of my nose felt chilled  and decided it was time to make my way home .  Love days like this and where   Mother Nature let’s me enjoy her playground .

Since New Years day the weather has been so dreary and my mood and my body have felt every bit of the drearyness . Then after a messy icy night and morning the sun showed itself and The temperature rose as well .I ended up just spending the rest of the afternoon on my porch letting the sun give me some love. The warmth on my face was priceless! Just what was needed. So anyways I’ve  started a new read. Loving this book! Kristin Hannah The Woman. Oh wait I did mentioned this in my last post. I’m slacking on my post on here .I used write everyday sometimes twice a day and apologize I am usually better at catching up and enjoying  all your beautiful posts. Believe me I have the time its just as its been for the last couple of years finding the laptop that is comfortable for  me to write on. I’ll eventually figure it out .(haha)I hope you feel the warmth I felt today with this  amazing rays of sun photo🩷

Sitting here with my morning coffee the quietness around me embraces me like a warm hug. Once again the holidays have flowed in and gently flowed  back out till next year. A quiet one it has been. My Son was here for  three days on Thanksgiving with his Christmas  presents in hand when it was time to head back home  since he had to stay close for his work but not without many big hugs from me .Moms need hugs. Video chat is priceless . Christmas spent with my daughter and lots of hugs as well . And with my siblings . And the day just quietly flowed by. Now on ward to the New Year. I’m not one for resolutions but since I’ve been on my own I have chosen words or phrases that seem to attach themselves to me from everyday life experiences, so this year I belive it will be “live one day at a time”. “live for today.’ I  have always lived by that but this year I’ve found myself not doing that. And  I have notice a difference in not such a positive way.  So its time to get back to that.  And this day well is a messy one looks to be a icy rainy mess . Appointments got canceled so a day at home with some nice warm cups of tea and a new book to read. Excited about this one I’ve been wanting to read this since it came out. Women by Kristen Hannah I’ve heard many good reviews expecially from my daughter who listened to the audio version . She is borrowing my book of  hers The Nightingale. But first I need to do some cleaning around here and try a new recipe I found for homade Lentil soup so my coffee is finished and time to get to it.  Enjoy your day or night wherever you’re.

Its a brutally cold morning here. Thankfully the coffee is hot and welcoming. As I was sitting here enjoying  my coffee this came up on one of the sites I follow and it was such a nice reminder for whoever wants to read it. So Im sharing☺️
