rainy monday

Really.  It is raining!   Even though my view out the window is bright blue sky.  I am hoping that means it will pass quickly.   I am charging my camera battery and getting ready to head outside.

Then some serious house cleaning.  And some Indian food prep for dinner.  Yum.  Yesterday was the last day to eat meat.  One more week for dairy and cheese.  We are staring down the barrel at Lent.  Forgiveness Sunday is next week.

Dinner with good friends last night.   It has been a long time.

I am thankful for good friends; good food; laughing with my children; a warm house and dry boots.
