We often do not appreciate the small things in life.
Our weather has dropped down to be really chilly this morning. I finally got dressed. It feels wonderful to have warm clothes on from head to toe.
I have an oversized sweater and a tank top underneath and fleeced leggings as well as a pair of winter weight socks. I am wearing house slippers for now, but when we go to church I will likely wear boots.
We have an annual Society Meeting at church. That is what we label our first of the year planning and election meeting. We will have soup and sandwiches and I am sure we will feel blessed.
I may go for coffee with Jane later.
Maybe I will get a nap.
At any rate, I will be warm.

I always have to put myself on "Australian Time" when you mention summer.

Slippers for church or in this weather could be subject for those who like to walk. Glad you changed.

Yes. My warmest ones would not have done well for walking around.

It was good to look at our accomplishments for last year and look ahead to the new year.

Good idea to wear boots when you go to church otherwise people might look at you funny if you show up in your slippers. Hope your meeting goes/went well.

Meeting and lunch went very well. So did coffee with my friend. The boots were definitely a better choice.

Warm clothes and friendships aren't always appreciated enough.

Some people do have a hard time breathing when it is cold.

It was a pretty good week all in all. Much better than yours was with the backed up sewer.
