Today has been a lovely Vermont day. We had a delicious breakfast this morning, went to church and then came back and hung out on the deck with a fire and some hot cocoa (it’s so nice out!). The smell of Mrs. Temple’s amazing sauce is currently floating through the house and let me tell you – I’m excited for it.
My handsome man
Dugan!
Bring on the macaroni and meatballs!
My kindness today: I have a friend who is currently in recovery. He’s had a rough year but seems to be doing so much better these days. I get updates from his sister every now and then (phone calls seem to be limited while in treatment) and he really seems to have a new positive outlook on life. I can’t tell you how happy that makes me!
While on our ride back to MA, I’m going to write my friend a note to say hi and tell him that he’s in my prayers of course. I’d just like to encourage him to keep up the great work and to know how much support he has.
I hope everyone has enjoyed their weekend! Now that the holidays are winding down, I feel like it’s back to the ‘real world’ – ahh I guess it has to happen at some point.
