It has been an absolutely glorious day today.
The sun has blazed all day - too hot really to do anything at all other than just slump and enjoy it.
Give me half the chance and I'm your girl for just that. Tomorrow, weather permitting, I am planning on doing just that for most of the day.
I was on a trip this morning to a local church - it is one of the prettiest churches I have ever seen with a stunning rood screen which is aparently one of only two in the country like it - the other being in Norwich.
The photo doesn't do it justice really as it is very bright and prettty pretty.
The numbers are for a church quiz we were doing with the children.
I chose the stunning reredos as my photo of the day.
I have a page to share today which is another made with Dawn Inskip's awesome new template collection. They are all so fabulous and I am doing a happy happy dance that I have so many of them
So - when the temperature is 28 degrees - and very humid - what better way to cool off than memories of snow.
Snow far snow good then LOL
Today I am thankful
laughter - had some good laughs today
sunshine - loads of that
FRIDAY
I slumped at the breakfast table, in my robe, still bleary-eyed and fuzzy-headed from waking up, when I suddenly remembered that I was supposed to be at the doctor’s office for an appointment in 45 minutes. I quickly got dressed, drove across town, and arrived there 10 minutes late.
That was the beginning of a day during which everything went wrong. I stopped to shop for groceries and didn’t have my checkbook. When I got back home, I took off my glasses and then couldn’t find them. I burned the lunch. I spilled ketchup on my slacks. By the time the piano tuner arrived (I’d forgotten he was coming), my nerves were a wreck.
I got the tuner settled at the piano, and then I sank into a chair. The tuner ran his fingers up and down the keys, producing jangled sounds. I hadn’t realized until then how badly out of tune my piano had become. Just like my day, I thought.
The tuner began working on the strings, tapping the keys and testing the tone as he adjusted the pins. One by one, the strings slid into place, producing warm, rich tones.
“I need to retune my day,” I said.
Usually, I spend a little quiet time each morning, focusing on God and asking for His help through the coming hours. Well, it’s never too late, I told myself. Relaxing, I closed my eyes, centered down, and prayed.

Snow! I'm not missing it a bit ;-) But it's a pretty layout :-D
We are starting our Memorial Day weekend here. Lots of folks fueling their car for the 3-day weekend this evening. I will be working all day Saturday and Sunday, so no out-of-town plans here.
