A Fly

There was a fly perched on the cement this morning as I opened the door to let Laney out.  It was squirming around.  This was a sure sign that spring is in the air.  I was surprised that the fly was alive as it was very cold last night.  The temperature last night had dipped into the teens, but the sunshine today is going to bring warm air with it.

I am praying that each day I wake up I will feel better.  I think I can say that I officially have the flu.  I had a rough night as the cough and congestion is overwhelming.  Just getting dressed yesterday took the gusto out of me.  My flu shot has failed me this year.  I have continued to pray that my husband does not get ill.  I guess the couch, the dog and I are going to continue being bed buddies.  I am struggling to find the positive when I feel so bad, but grateful for love and life.   Also, grateful for tissues with lotion.

I did hear good news yesterday that makes me believe in change your thoughts and it will change your world.  I like to think of these as little miracles.  There are angels watching over us.

Don't forget to spring forward with your clock this weekend if you are living somewhere that observes day light savings time.  I am hoping that the time change will bring optimism that warm days will be upon us soon.  I am getting ready for the flowers, as I am planning my flower gardens in my head.  Life is like the beauty of flowers.  It will always bloom when we are optimistic.  Smile today at everyone, as it is contagious.

Life is beautiful!!!
