Choose to Embrace the Change

Thursday's blog focused on finding the positive in the midst of the chaos of change and restrictions. You've had a couple days to reflect and process this idea. Has it set in yet?

I don't usually have down time the last shopping days before a holiday but this year, I do. Of course to sew and write aren't miracles, yet the timing and ability to do them, is. It's Saturday and a wonderful opportunity to spend time doing something you enjoy and have always said, "If I didn't have to shop for Thanksgiving, I would..."
