Waiting…

…so halloween is not my favorite holiday. in fact, we’ve never celebrated it in any way.

but, this year we decided to buy a ton of candy and make it more of an outreach thing…

so, i stuffed 80 or so bags with bags of candy (and little cards about C3).

now i’m waiting…

i’m just hoping for a few kids…in their cute costumes…and little smiling faces.

80 bags…

still waiting.

keeping the light on…

peace.

Happy Sunshiny Wednesday.

The sun is shining! It may only be for a little while, since there’s still a storm out there - but, for now, it’s shining!!!

We went to go get coffee…that’s coming to an end soon, since we’ve ordered an espresso machine (to save money - budgets, you know…blah, blah, blah)…so we decided we will get coffee a few more times ’til it arrives. Of course, I got the largest size and didn’t really drink it on the trip home because it was so hot. Then, pulling into the driveway - the unthinkable happened - I know better than to pick up hot coffee by the lid, but I hadn’t had my caffeine yet so…Yep! I spilled the whole thing - GONE - and all over myself, Byron, and the car…did I mention it was HOT!!!

I cried - I did. I rarely really cry…but, I cried!

But, as horrendous as that was, the whole way home I had closed my eyes and let the sun shine right on my face. So, even minus my over-priced latte, I’m good. (Happy Me! )

Sunshine just changes everything…it makes the “horrendous” moments okay. It can make any day a happy, sunshiny day.

So, Happy Wednesday to you. And even if things go wrong (like your love affair with jacked-up java going terribly awry), I hope you get a little sunshine on your face and heart - it’s like a whispered hug - it can help make those times okay…

Have a “sunshiny” day! :-)
Peace out.
