I am Thankful

This is the view I see as I stand outside on the deck in the morning while the dogs are in the backyard doing their thing. 

(I tweaked the photo a little bit using PicMonkey.  Have you tried it yet?)

It is a seasonal view.  When the bare trees you see leaf out in a few weeks, the barn will disappear.  In the meantime, I am thankful for cool, misty mornings and sunshine, to get my day off to a beautiful start.

If you're looking for me this morning, I will be in the bottom left corner of this photo ... continuing to reclaim my Rose Field from last year's weeds and neglect.  I am also thankful for the lovely weather this week, which makes working outside so delightful.

Slowly but surely, I'm making progress.

  6. I wish I could see your COMPLETE blog post in my Google reader. I don't always have the time to click over and see what's going on. I enjoy your blog so much, but I tend to just bypass you in the reader because I can't see it. I am hoping you'll consider changing that. (Don't worry, if I love a post, I do take the time to comment.) :)

  10. What a gorgeous view, Connie! Hasn't this weather been just beautiful?? I've got all of my outdoor work done here at the farmhouse. Now...it's on to our lake house, which will be going up for sale (again) next month. It's just not as much fun working over there, though...I continue to pray that it sells this summer...!
