Snow Day!!

What a blessing.....today is a beautiful snow day.  Nothing is better than waking up to a blanket of white with sparkles of diamonds on top with the reflection of the sun.  The Lord has definitely blessed us!  Nothing is better than looking out your window and appreciating views that are not man made.  I am cozy inside with a blazing fire.  I just filled my belly with homemade chicken soup.  My belly is still warm with happiness.  By the way, I made the chicken soup.  My first time ever making chicken noodle soup.  I have to say, it came out pretty darn tasty.  My husband was impressed and made sure he said so.  Gotta love when you get praise from a loved one.

I don't want to feel bad, but these types of days just make me want to cuddle up with a good book.  I love reading cuddled under a warm blanket.  Not only am I enjoying a good book, I have watched a few chick flicks.  I am trying to get my fill in before my hubby gets home from work and gives me his "Merle" eyes when I show him the romantic movie I want to watch.  His idea of a love story is King Kong or American Sniper where there appears to be some sort of romance in the middle of all the blood and gory.  I love his efforts to please me, but sometimes it does not satisfy me the way a real chick flick does.

Days like this do not happen quite often for me.  When they do, I do not want to take them for granted.  They are a blessing from the Lord.  Time to appreciate the simple gifts around you.  Quiet time.  My heart is filled with joy.
