Chris over at
Enchanted Oak offered a great "challenge". For each one who posts a list, a poem, a paragraph about the simple things in life that you savor, her family will donate $2 to a medical clinic in Haiti, run by Heartline Ministries. All you have to do is write something simple about things that are simple, include a link to her blog in your post and then leave a comment to tell her that you posted.
So here are a few simple things that I am enjoying today:
- Listening to the sound of rain on the deck of the boat.
- Hearing the gentle snoring of our dog as she sleeps soundly on her berth
- Reading to each other from the Lois Wilson Story
- The highly varnished sheen of the new binocular box that is mounted on the bulkhead of the boat
- A simple omelet cooked on a camp stove and a first cup of coffee. It tastes so good!
What are your simple things for this day? Remember that the simple things can have a big impact in so many ways. Thanks Chris for your generosity to help those in desperate need of even the most simple things.
cool . great idea and great list :)
ReplyDeleteThose things are simply beautiful!
ReplyDeleteawsome little project isn't it? I just finished my list... great list yourself there Syd!
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm there, Syd! You drew a perfect word picture for me. I'm so glad you're enjoying your rainy day. I can here the light rain on my sunroom roof as I type this here in California. Lovely. Thank you for helping me spend money on Haiti. I'm having a lot of fun visiting new people and old friends. That photo of your dog is a winner.

Coffee on a boat in the morning, reading Lois with your love. Sounds like heaven.
ReplyDeleteWhy do golden retrievers always look so happy?!?
ReplyDeletedropping over from chris' wonderful list...coffee and omelet over a camp stove sounds wondeful!
ReplyDeleteThe sound of rain is so relaxing, isn't it? And reading to each other from the Lois Wilson story while listening to the rain. Even better.
