Monday


Hearing
.
the sound of water trickling through the Berkey filter
.
.

Seeing
.
bright sunshine on a dusting of snow
.
.
Smelling
.
whole grain bread baking

.
Praying
.
for a quiet advent heart that looks, like the old prophetess Anna did, for Jesus' coming
.
.

Thanking
.
God for a restful Lord's Day yesterday
.
.
Reading
.
A Scottish Christian Heritage by Iain H. Murray
..

Listening
.
.
..
Cooking
.
broth from Thursday's turkey bones
.
.
Cleaning
.
the laundry room
.
.
.
Tending
.
the potted herbs in the south window
.
.
Eating
.
some of that whole grain bread that I was smelling a few minutes ago
.
.
Drinking
.
lemon water
.
.
Wearing
.
camoflauge cargo pants, henley, cozy pink zippered cardigan
