Tomorrow
There’ll be sun!

Whenever I visit family or family visits me, after their visit, their absence is heard in the silence, the lack of conversation and laughter. It’s felt in the lack of them, the empty space that was so recently filled with a familiar, cozy presence. It takes awhile to adjust and for things to feel normal…
I woke up this morning with a scratchy throat, cough, and runny nose. Maybe this has been the problem all along, why I’ve been so drained — impending germs. Something that can be cured with vitamin C, hot tea with honey (maybe a little brandy), naps — that would be good. But it was about…
My furnace blower stopped working last night. I got it going again a couple times by manually spinning the blower fan, and then turning the furnace back on again. This was repeated everytime the fan tried to turn back on (often). Sure I could have left the fan on but what fun would that have…

Hey darlin’, I saw your post and had to pop in. Seems life has tried to darken my world. My Mama is in ICU right now.

I remind myself of this often.
Glorious pictures as always sweetie!
Have a blessed and sunny day :o)
I love your story! I won’t forget such a beautiful message.
Sorry to hear about your Mom. I’ll say a prayer for both of you.
Oh so lovely. Look at those brave new blades of grass popping out of the ground all around Luke…green and precious. I’ll sure never take spring for granted ever again! Sun, let there be sun!

Very beautiful. And, the sun will come out soon. We’ve had a record month of snow but we had sun today! Perhaps you did too!
Your photos were perfect for the lyrics!
Beautiful photos! Love that song but ~ I hope the sun came out for you TODAY 🙂
