Contentment




Just a few words today . . . 
I'm cleaning, decorating and grocery shopping . . . in preparation for the 
Easter 
weekend 
with my dear ones.

I'm looking forward to putting work aside, and spending time with family.




As I de-clutter and dust, I'm aware of how much I enjoy my little home.


My collections of sweet old things give me pleasure
and I'm thinking about

 how

 blessed

 I

 am





Whether there is any real value in my

 "antiques" 

or not, 

they are arranged to please my particular taste and style,

and they help create

 a

 cozy

 atmosphere

 and 

serene

 environment.




Laundry
ironing
folding
vacuuming
paper sorting
shredding
filing
putting away
trash out
dishwasher unloaded

these are mundane

 repeated
 time
 and 
time 
again


but they are 

all the steps to achieving

harmony  





There is such
 contentment
 in
 my
 heart
