Dec. 29

Doesn't it feel as if December should be over all ready? I mean, we had the big work up to Christmas and now it's over. So December should be over, right? :) My Mom says not to wish your life away. She is right. My January calendar is full and I am impatient to get on with it. Still this morning when I was doing dishes I looked out the window at the snow covered ground, the bare brown branches of the woods behind the house and there-to my delight- were rays of the rising sun. They hit the branches just right so that only a few select tips shone with a golden light that you rarely see. They sparkled as if a small handful of gold winged fairies alighted on select branches. The effect didn't last long. It was the moment when the light was at the right angle. So awesome. And here's the thing, if it were January already, the sun would be at a different angle and that fairy light would have never happened. So- here's to living in the moment, no matter how impatient we are to see it gone. Cheers~
