The world can be a pretty scary place these days, but I am still looking for the good. Today I am reminding myself how very lucky I am. I have a warm house to live in. I have good food to eat. I have many wonderful friends that have taken the time to ask how I am doing, which means that they are thinking about me even though we are apart. The weather is warming and spring has arrived which means that my garden will be keeping me busy again soon. I have had time to work on projects that I had been putting off for when I had more time.
I find that if I can keep myself busy then I have an easier time being positive about what is going on around me. I have no shortage of hobbies. I have learned to knit this winter and have been adding to my collection of fiber crafts day by day. I have spent hours spinning new yarn from roving bought from local farms at the fall fiber festival. I have also spent hours in my kitchen cooking up delightful meals from ingredients that I grew and preserved myself. I am grateful to live in the unique and special place and time, and though it hasn't always been easy, it has always been worth it.
