Good Day

What kind of day is it when you are just really thankful that someone you love ate half a chopped steak and a cup of potato soup and didn't have to run from the table because it came through so fast? A good day, that's what.

It's a good day when your 92yo mother decides that if the shingles are going to be with her for longer than she expected, maybe even the rest of her life, she's going to keep living in spite of shingles and get her hair done. Even if she has to take pain pills. Even if her wardrobe is limited to whatever is loosest. She's aiming to go to church!

It's a good day when the dogwood and the redbud bloom at the same time. And when the early azaleas start coloring up a month before mine will.

Lots of reasons for a good day. One of my favorite scriptures: This is the day that the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it.
