Snow

     The weather here has been crazy the last couple of days filled with snow and wind. A LOT of snow.. just when it was almost gone. Though many complain about the weather I for one LOVE it! I do look forward to summer and not having to wear a big winter jacket but today I decided to just love what we have today. Snow and wind.

      So my afternoon consisted of me getting all bundled up and going outside into the minus 12 weather. I let our dogs loose to go for a good run. Our big dog Buddy had no problem going through the snow but our little west highland terrier Layla had a really hard time walking anywhere so I made her a path and she followed me everywhere because it was the only way she could get around.

     At one point I just laid in the snow and let the light snow flakes fall gently on my face. As I was laying there I just couldn't help but feel like it was the perfect place to be that very moment... I was nice and toasty warm in my big snow suit and yet I wasn't too hot because of the nice cool breeze. It was Bliss. I laid there for a bit and just took in God's creation.  It was so peaceful, so quiet, and very tranquil. At that moment I didn't have a care on my mind not a worry in my soul. I thank the Lord that he provides those moments, those precious moments where you don't have a care in the world. at that moment everything is perfect.

     I have been thinking a lot about heaven lately. If I think it is so beautiful here on earth, how much MORE stunning will it be in heaven? It's one of those things you can't even imagine until you are there. I can't wait to see what heaven has in store for me! To see the angels and to bow down before my lord and father and PRAISE him! It will indeed be a beautiful time. For now though I am very thankful for being here on earth and being able to spend time with those that I love, and to enjoy the beautiful creation God has given us on this earth.

      So as of today I have decided to enjoy those little moments God gives us and be as a little snow flake, light and carefree , realizing that no matter where I may fall I will always have my God to pick me up and lead me to where I am supposed to be.

It's been awhile...

I didn't realize how long it has been since my last blog.. Not that anyone reads it. That's not the point however.

So things that have been going on recently.

I have been working a lot and so has my hubby. We were thinking of maybe going on a european cruise this year but it doesn't look like that will be happening. So maybe a BC trip will have to suffice this year maybe, we shall see.

This week has been a bit rough... I have had a bad case of eczema for the past year or so my doctor thought  but since November I  have been  getting really bad rashes on my hands and they look so ugly. Yesterday it was the worst and so I went to the doctors. He sent me home... For a week... because I am allergic to SOMETHING. We're not sure what I'm allergic to but the doctor said I can't work with my hands the way they are. He said worst case scenario would be that I would have to quit my job.... I am praying that won't be the case. He has given me medications to stop the itching and swelling. It's just awful And while I am off I thought I would get some housework done... Guess what?! He said NO HOUSE WORK! I feel like he's being just a little mellow dramatic but He wants to figure out whats causing these terrible reactions. So I guess we'll see.

Keep you Posted.
