Winter Weather

For the last month, I've written down 10 things I'm grateful for each morning.  Today I glanced outside my dining room windows and noticed dense fog, a saturated ground, and water droplets from the "Nor'easter" that dispersed our area the night before.  I decided in that moment that I was grateful for the fog, and the rain.  Often I dismiss rainy days as dreary and miserable, but today I was able to find beauty in the mist and water that surrounded the nature outside my windows.

Amazingly, while the rest of the northeast dealt with 20 inches of snow, which I also would have welcomed, around 3:00 pm the sun peaked out behind the clouds and it was gorgeous!  The weather temperature read 53 degrees and I grabbed my dog, Star, and took her for a beautiful walk.  She was actually panting at the end of it.

I am grateful for fog, and the rain.  I am especially grateful when the sun peaks out.
