Did the beautiful, mild fall temps,

which lasted into the end of November,

lull me to into thinking that

maybe, just maybe,

winter may not come to Nebraska this year? 

It helped me procrastinate, for sure! 

But along with the prolonged, warm temps,

the past 2 months have been filled

with a more important priority . . .

family and friends!

As I think about what is left undone . . .

tulip and daffodil bulbs I wanted to move . . .

a cranberry bush that needs to be dug up . . .

trimming of a few perennials well past their time to be green . . .

a few leaves to rake up . . .

I’ve decided,

I’ll think about that another day!

There still will be days

when clean up can be done.

But for right now,

I’m sitting here with a cup of coffee

enjoying the view of

snowflakes, the size of silver dollars,

floating down from above! 

Is there anything

more beautiful . . .

more relaxing . . .

than enjoying God’s handiwork?

I think not.
