This morning starts with a warm fire in the fireplace, a cup of coffee in a snowman mug and the lights from the tree and mantle shine bright. Also, today I know that I will not spent all of my day outdoors. For the most part I will enjoy a heated environment.
It is less than three weeks before we head South. That's a thought that brightens my day!
When it comes to vacations I am like a child waiting for Christmas. I like to travel but most of all I like the preparation and anticipation. Many times when I drive Southbound on I-75 I think of forgetting my local destination and just keep on going. Maybe I need a shrink, What's funny, the trips to Georgia are mostly work. It's takes about two days to get the yard up to snuff. Hedges, leaves, clean gutters, pick up sticks. Uncover the boat, adjust the timer on the outdoor lights, Put out porch furniture. Then it's on to special projects. Somehow it's still enjoyable. Some of the projects on my list are: Steps into the lake off the dock. Pegboard on the walls in the shop. Install the bagger on the John Deere. I don't have any money for special projects this trip so I am not sure what will get done. I need to get creative on material acquisition. ( No I don't mean steal it!).

Today's thought:
The discipline of desire is the background of character.
