Sick Leave Has It's Benefits

Yesterday I spent the day at home to nurse my laryngitis. Around 8:00am I went into the kitchen to get a cup of coffee and noticed how beautiful the morning sun looked through the family room door. Everything seemed so bright and ready for the day. With my busy life, I often miss out on scenes like this.






The two metal cranes that my daughter-in-law gave me appeared to be enjoying the early morning sun, as well.

Reminder to self: Slow down and look out the window more often!

I hope you're feeling better - but if you're not "too sick" those "mental health" days are great!

The veiw was beautiful, slowing down to relish it more often would be a good idea.
