you have but one life...it's too short to fret...
it's too short to hang onto things you should forget...
so love all the way, live it all and not part...
and learn to forgive...to keep peace in your heart...

Starting Fresh

   One step at a time...you start fresh on a new day...all things from the past that weigh you down are gone...all that is is in front of you...
   This "start fresh" morning began with rain...now that doesn't really sound like a pleasant day...but in reality...rain is what cleanses the world...calms the dust and pollen...waters the grass and flowers and trees...brings new life to seeds and things that lie dormant in the ground..."showers" of rain...just like showering your body...all things are fresh and new...and when the sun next shines...things will seem brighter than before...
   So...since we are closing the old and opening the new...so it will be with the blog...the email addresses...new pillows for the bed...newly made quilt for the spread...freshly laundered clothes and towels...house dusted, vacuumed and mopped...just new and fresh...and it only stands to reason...after all...it's SPRING!
   A week long visit with a friend from up north has ended...but what a wonderful week it was...she had an AMAZING weather week...sunny and in the 80's every day she was here...of course...the locals...including me...enjoyed it too...
   A fellow beadworker...we had one FULL day of playing at the bead store...that was so fun...and we learned a LOT...and spent the money we had been saving since last year since she was here...lol...every dime...learned some new stitches...learned designs for several lovely bracelets...had dinner with my family...went to the spa for a massage...went to a cove I know and watched the manatees...just all around a wonderful week...can't wait til she visits next year...already have my "change collecting bank" going for the beads I'm certain I'll buy...lol...
   Just got a text from her...sunny...but in the 40's...told her..."If it makes you feel any better...it's raining here"...lol...rather have rain than cold...any day of the week...
   Love and blessings to you...may you stand in His grace...
