Simplicity of the day

Boxing up newly gathered eggs, feeding goats, admiring the changing colors of autumn, working in the garden, smelling the lingering flowers, watering and feeding the chickens. Getting a fire going to chase off the chill of the morning and the fun of finding places for the new pieces of pottery purchased yesterday. In awe of the quality of the weaving of a dish towel made by a child that I just had to buy .

That is my morning. Coffee perking on the stove, almost ready. Time to sit in the rocker, coffee next to me on the window sill, book in my hand, the heat from the wood stove warming my feet.
