Warm Gratitude

I believe today will be the warmest out of a week of a very cold bit of weather. I try not to make too big a deal out of the fact I wish I could bypass winter every year since I don't enjoy it. When I see pictures of softly falling snow and white capped branches I shudder in horror. I know it isn't the reaction most would have to these supposedly wonderful landscapes but my logical mind knows I would be in total panic of the freezing temperatures. Zero tolerance for me.

But there is so much more I have to be grateful about than to worry over a few days of blistering cold weather. For one thing I don't have to venture far out of my home. There is plenty to do and celebrate without moving outside my front door. I take advantage of that as much as I can. This year might end damp and freezing but I look toward another and am thankful.

Landmark

A few posts back I actually hit a landmark for this blog. It seems I've been sputtering, mumbling, rambling on and on enough here to come up with over 2000 posts. Published posts, posts that are here and still available.

I'm not sure it's good, bad, or indifferent, but the sheer number alone is higher than I anticipated. I should celebrate in some way by hmmm, maybe posting again.
