Happy Monday! I know that may be easier for me to say, as I sit here in my jammies, in my cozy, warm house, typing. My hubby had to get up, shower, get all dressed up, and brave the cold, wind, and snow to go to work. We are both very thankful though, that he has a good job, and that we’re all relatively healthy for the moment! I so want to be a “count your many blessings” type of person, even when things are not so great. I desire and pray that I will be a positive example for my children, of someone, who because of God’s grace and mercy, was always looking up! 🙂
Have you read any of Barbara Johnson’s books? She’s in heaven now, but even though in her lifetime she endured much pain, she remained an amazingly positive person, who was always reaching out to help others. If you find yourself in need of a “pick me up,” I highly recommend looking up any of her books. Even the titles of her books are enticing, and these are just a few:
Where Does a Mother Go to Resign?
Living Somewhere Between Estrogen and Death
Splashes of Joy in the Cesspools of Life
