Out With the Old~In With the New!

 For a brief moment this morning the sun made an appearance..enough time for me to capture it. This photo of the sun and trees is on the south east side of my house.

Simultaneously on the south west side of the house the sun was shining above the fog on the very tips of the mountains. A sliver of warmth!

I have high hopes for this year, however, I have no intention of making any resolutions. I prefer to do what I have to do to bring about change on a day to day basis, and for that which I have no control over bring it on!                                                                    

On the first day of the new year I am grateful for a peaceful morning with a wee bit of sunlight, a good cup of coffee and the mundane rituals of feeding the furries who obviously have been starving all night long!

I am contemplating cleaning out cupboards today in the kitchen. The children do the dishes about 85% of the time throughout the week and after 5 years of living in this house, never put anything away in the same place twice!  I know organizing the cupboards seems futile with this knowledge but it seems like a good thing to do at this moment.

An early dinner with Jim's family later today--I am leaping off a bridge today! Okay well that is a bit of a stretch..but I will eat that sauerkraut..I will!
