We had our first snow of the season. I am guessing around 3-4 inches. Yesterday we picked the last of the garden produce that we knew wouldn't fair well with a freeze. Also picked about 6 bushels of apples. I think today is going to be a day spent sorting, juicing, drying, applesauce making etc.

I'm looking out my window at a blanket of newly fallen snow and more falling. Perched on the weather rock is what I think is a little prairie falcon. He looks kinda cold, but I'm sure he isn't. The humming bird I saw yesterday - now, that may be a different story. I hope he found some place warm to hunker down today.
I have two weeks until the SoJo half-marathon. This week is going to have to be on the treadmill, and that's ok. I don't mind. I'm not going to make a schedule, but make sure I can get in a couple of long runs this week.
A morning prayer. By Mr. Tony Garcia
May I take the tools I have been given to build a better little corner of my world.
May I use the gifts I have been given to make the day brighter for another.
May I remain present enough to count the grand blessings in my life instead of adding up the minor problems which might arise.
May I patiently wait my turn as the day unfolds so others will not feel hurried or rushed.
May I not cross paths with another without leaving them in a better place for having shared time with me.
May I share the hope and love that exists in my heart so others may feel this in their day.
May I choose to walk forward this day, even if my steps are small, slow, clumsy, or heavy.
May I face the day full of wonder, willing to grow, accepting of what it brings, and ever grateful for the breaths it affords me.
May I do all this knowing I am cared about, watched over, surrounded by and filled with love.
Amen.
Now GET OUT THERE ... You have work to do!!!
