I remember many years ago, when we had a huge hail storm!! it was a nightmare, and one that certainly did not go away with the hail, the ramifications lasted long after!! Our thought are with you!!!!!!

I know this sounds strange to have as a favorite word, but we just had a 10 mile wide, 30 mile long hailstorm (stones from ping pong to softball sized) run through our county in Iowa. A shingle, or more precisely a BUNCH of shingles, is all that’s keeping a lot of people in our area from losing all that they have; keep all of those that lost homes, crops, vehicles and livelihoods in your thoughts as we anticipate rain this week.

Sometimes we just get oblivious to our surroundings!! I am very guilty of this. Which is kind of the way I got onto the laundry soap. I looked at my grocery cart, and looked for ONE thing I can do better at, ONE thing I could eliminate from my bills…..aha, I discovered it in a very big way!!! :)

Really paying attention to what is happening in our own lives and being aware of what is happening around us. Taking the time to really be in the present moment. You have given me ways to “simplify” my life which has helped me to be more MINDFUL of the things I do out of habit( going to the same stores in town, buying and using the same cleaning products, always hurrying around) rather than slow down and really be MINDFUL and present in the moment.

Now…didn’t that put a smile on your face?!!! I love their fat little tummies, rollick-frolic tumbling play, soft fur and loose skin, and their SMELL.
