Glitter In The Sky

The title reminds me of "Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds." What a glorious day (from inside, of course).

I awoke this morning to a sheet of ice beckoning to me and my truck. Oh, what glee to drive such a monster and have the feeling of a elephant stomping on tulips! I used to drive a plastic Geo Prism where every move I made could have me dead or a slide into a curb could make a thousand dollars of damage. To drive such a beast I have now makes snow, ice and mud (how I love mud) not even unpleasant, but actually desired! I was unusually eager to scrape the thick layer of ice off my windshield so I could venture the one mile journey into work. I know a mile is sad, but it is convenient!

Anyway, now that it is noon and the snow has melted into an ugly soppy mess, I am looking out the window at the blowing snow. It seems like God had a handful of diamonds and glitter he tossed over us with joy. There is nothing like snow in the sunshine. This may seem crazy, but for us folks who live in Colorado, it can rain, snow, hail and sunshine in the same day! The weather can change within the hour here! I guess that is the only change I can handle with grace!

So, in hoping you are all having a glorious Monday, let the diamonds fall!
