good morning! it's a cold morning here, but still no snow this winter. my brother lives on the southern oregon coast....it's snowing there. my sister lives on the coast of maine....it's snowing there. and here i am, roots running deep within a mile of where i've spent most of my life and....no snow. oh well. perhaps i should travel to oregon or maine. :) i like that idea.
this morning, i woke up early...not by choice. i normally don't mind getting awakened early, having some coffee, pushing slowly into the new day. but today it was so warm in the flannel sheets, and still semi-dark out, so i cocooned for a bit....until jake woke up. it's difficult to be warm and cozy with a big ol' chocolate lab loudly wanting breakfast. well....when i got up and looked to the sky, i thanked jake...i actually said the words "thank you buddy....you did good...i would've missed it". he usually wakes me up between 7 and 7:30 a.m.....he's more reliable than an alarm clock. but today....6:30, it was....and i am so very thankful. otherwise i would've missed the most glorious sunrise....absolutely glorious to be sure. reds, oranges, all shades of blues and some purple and pink....such a sunrise, i haven't seen in a long time. such a nice way to start a new day...with a smile, some deep breaths...and a sky full of glory.
