All I wanted to do was get out of the house today. Take a taxi and go to Starbucks, so, that is just what I did. I wanted to take myself and Frances out to lunch. But no… my time was limited, we did not have time to eat out at a restaurant. I was rushed for time. The roofs and grass were full of frost this morning, it was minus 2 when I got up. Guess it is still cold. It is only 5 degrees Celsius out so I’m not surprised, but I was hoping it would warm up as the day went on. So, in the meantime, I’m brewing some coffee and going to find SOMETHING to occupy my time. I think I will read, I just don’t know which book I want to start, I have too many to choose from lol.

    Well, I hope you enjoy your cuppa coffee and that you find a wonderful book that you have to start reading and enjoy your day. It has been very cold here as well and the snow has finally melted, but it is still chilly. Sending you hugs and love, Joni.

    Carol, what a beautifully reflective and honest glimpse into your day. Even in the simple, sometimes rushed moments, there’s a quiet strength in how you care for yourself and Frances. Getting out, treating yourself to Starbucks, and still making plans for a shared lunch shows such a thoughtful heart.

    The world outside might be frosty and slow to warm, but you’ve created your own warmth with that brewing coffee and the wonderful problem of too many books to choose from. That’s the sign of a rich inner world. Here’s to finding the perfect story to get lost in today.

    Your patience and appreciation for life’s small details, even when they don’t go as planned, is truly inspiring. Wishing you a cozy, satisfying afternoon, Carol. You’ve earned it.
