Recommendation

I discovered a new blog this afternoon, called Enjoying the Little Things. I started reading this afternoon and can not stop, I just took a break so I could share the link with all of you.

This blog will fill your heart fill with love and your eyes fill with tears.

The photographs are exquisite the writing engaging. Kelle Hampton talks about the birth of her Down Syndrome daughter and the family's journey to "Holland."

Enjoy.

In like a lion

March certainly came in like a lion. The weather this weekend was so windy and rainy and since the ground is still frozen the water had no where to go and our back yard flooded. The water was high up the foundation in the back of our house. We had water leaking into our family room and we couldn't even figure out where it was coming from. My husband stayed up all night on Saturday to use the wet vacuum every 10 minutes. Fortunately he was able to keep most of the carpet dry.

Some schools in the southern part of our state were closed today due to power outages and 3 people were killed due to falling trees. The weather people should have given this storm a name and warned people to be careful. They have been off of their game lately, but I think the weather is just so hard to predict these days. It sure is a mess in parts of the state.

Tonight the wind is howling out there. It is a very uneasy feeling to listen to all that wind, knowing what damage it can do.

Over the hump day

I have some new job responsibilities which involves going to appointments around the state. Lots of driving in my car and walking all over creation. It is killing my knee. My movement practitioner says all this driving is not good for my knee and will make it much worse. My knee gets so stiff from driving and when I get out of the car to go to my appointment, I can hardly walk. I can't say anything to my boss at this point, because I am worried that I will lose my job.

So I am just doing my best to show that I am willing to make this shift in my position without complaining for now and see how bad it gets. Not sure what else to do.

Watching American Idol tonight. I haven't watched it too much this season, I don't think the talent is as strong as last year.

I am loving the weather this week. Spring is coming... slowly but surely.
