The Small Things in Life!

 When I went to bed last night a few snow flakes were 

 floating down from the heavens. This morning we woke 

to this winter wonderland.

 

The snow was wet, deep and very heavy. As my day started, 

the power flickered and it got me thinking about the seemingly

'small' things in life that we can easily take for granted. 

They include things that many people don't have.

These are things that have helped to make our lives

much easier and much more comfortable.

Power! Electric power can be fickle in these

weather conditions.This morning the lights went out, 

and the alarm momentarily sounded and then reset. 

No power would mean no heat or coffee! No hot

breakfast! No Fox & Friends! No

computer! Oh my!

No power means no hot water! I've never liked a

cold shower. I love being able to turn on a faucet and 

getting hot water for a shower, doing dishes, laundry,

or to simply wash my hands.

Snowplows! Sooner or later, we'll have to get outside

to clear the sidewalk and driveway. Charlie and are so 

grateful to have a truck and plow! 

Yikes! I just had a flashback to when I was a kid

and 'no school days' were spent shoveling snow to

clear the driveway. We got lots of snow way back 

then you know! It was an exhausting job and today

my back just couldn't and wouldn't be able to get

the job done!

  

While I realize that the cats aren't thinking about 

much more than the possibility of a morning

snack, I'm wonder what you're most grateful for

today? I am blessed with my life! I realize that those 

small things aren't really so small and that there are 

so many things, not mentioned in this posting that 

I'm Thankful for!  How about you? Have you said 

'Thank You' today to the God that has blessed you 

with so much?
