a short little snip-it

Just saw this link on NPR, it is a This I Believe story "Our Vulnerability Is Our Strength" by a man who is as assistant for adults with developmental disabilities... it sure rings a bell...

the grateful list:

-musical potlucks!  I think our living room had the best day of its life yesterday!  There were three banjos, an accordion!, one mandolin, a flute, two guitars, on fiddle, a kazoo, lots of voices, and one pair of dancin' shoes...it was dreamy (pictures to come soon-ish if I can talk Sarah into sharing hers)

-baked oatmeal with mangoes, figs, and nectarines and nectarine cobbler for breakfast

-visitors!  Rosemary, Eli, Bub and Linda

-sleep, all three hours of it

-my sleeping bag

-clean water

-Thelma, my friend from Berea who I hope to play music for again

-plants... even when it's cloudy for a long while they remind me there was (and will be again) sunshine
