It's sure been a cold, cold winter, Goin' home is one Hell of a drive

So, catching up with TGIF on Sunday.  Truth told, I was home the last two evenings- I've just been working my way through the recent chaos/ meltdown.  Some political stuff in the department at work has had me a little wound up, and that coupled with this mess of a house situation hasn't been ideal.  While the plumbing crisis is not fully resolved, I had a tree come down across the fence in last night's snowstorm.  I would wonder what other freakish thing could happen around here, but...I'm afraid that if I figured out it would actually happen.

With that somewhat whiny recap, here's my TGI for the week.

Today I am trusting that this week will be calmer than last, and that I'll be able to get back to yoga.  I need the grounding that a consistent practice offers, and my life the last few weeks has been anything but consistent.

Today I am grateful that Daddy moved here a couple of months ago.  Having him here has honestly been a lifesaver during the unplanned plumbing renovations, as well as for today's tree clean-up.  I've been fine here on my own for the last 6 1/2 years (and the 6 prior to that), but his timing for when I would need help has been uncanny.

Today I am inspired by a quote about grace that I found today.  As you may recall, it's allegedly my word of the year.  I'll confess that grace hasn't come easy these first three weeks of the year.  It comes from a box sign on the Fisher-Kids website, and I may need this box sign:
"Grace isn't a little prayer you say before receiving a meal.  It's a way to live."
To that, I say amen, and I am reminded that I get a chance tomorrow to start over again.
