Morning has always been my favorite time of day. I am not sure why I wanted to stay in bed today and every day for the past week. Today was easy to understand. It is raining. It is the gentle kind of rain where I just wanted to stay in bed, listen to the news and cuddle with Larry.
I stood in the kitchen and looked out onto the patio…and it reminded me of my Mother. Did she like days like this? I cannot remember.
The mini pink orchid is the cheeriest thing in the kitchen today.
The Komen, Dream A Dream quilt is quilted. I am putting the French borders on it today. and it will be complete by 5:00 this afternoon.
This quilt means very much to me. Personal moments spent putting the top together and watching it become a complete piece. It is exciting to know that it will become ART belonging someone else….
My devotional this morning was by Stanley Jones. It read: “Be so preoccupied with good will, that you haven’t room for ill will.”
Dear ones, I am keeping busy. I am ignoring ridiculousness on social media and focusing on today, tomorrow and how I can make the moments better. Larry and I are quite alone. He is the most wonderful person I know, so it makes being together ok. I miss my friends. Texts, and emails are dwindling as we all struggle to manage these strange days. I worry about my dear friends. Please know that my thoughts are with you……
It is time to work on the quilt. I am excited and happy to finish it….tomorrow, I will share with you what happens next.
Love you beyond the moon.
