Duck pond & Cheerios

To start my week off this week, I went to Jane's to help with her parents and she wanted to take them to the duck pond.  It was such a nice morning too, with a little cool breeze in the air.  We enjoyed a little stroll around and took in the breathtaking view before us and chatted with the ducks and geese as we saw them.  I always enjoy when I go and I get irritated with myself wondering why I don't go more often.  Always feeling at peace and renewed after leaving.  I know its just a matter of setting my mind to it and making it happen.  If I can make time to do my crafts and choose not to clean the house or just do bare minimum then I can make an outing to this beautiful area right where I live at least once a week!

On this same day of this God Glorious view I ate a bowl of Cheerios.  I know no big deal right?  Well I haven't eaten a bowl of cereal  in a long time, normally I like Frosted Mini Wheat and I've never much cared for Cheerios.  But I was hungry and it sound good for some odd reason.  It was great!  I just bought a new box....

All this to say ......that as much as we think we are slowing down in our busy days to stop "and smell the roses" or enjoy each moment I think we really are not doing as well as we could....at lease that is how I feel. I'm thankful that I had a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios and that I got out and enjoyed a nice walk and view around the duck pond area in the neighborhood I live close by to.

Its the little things that take up the most space...

Thankful for such a beautiful area to go walk around that isn't far from my house.
It's easy to dwell on how you feel and what isn't getting done and a little harder but well worth the energy and time to really focus on what you have and how you have been blessed.
