Go back and read this post for the story behind "Five Small Things Friday".
For this week, here is my list:
1. Sight: Bright Blue Skies And Gray-bottomed Clouds
2. Hearing: The Mower Running
3. Smell: A Spring Morning
4. Taste: Cream Cheese And Chives Crackers
5. Touch: Shower After Mowing
The stories behind the list:
1. I love rain and I love thunderstorms. Recently though, we've been having alot of over-cast weather, and after two days of rain and storm, those bright blue skies and fluffy clouds were quite refreshing.
2. The first sound of the mower means summer is here.
3. Such a glorious, fresh, vibrant spring morning! The air was rich with the earthy smells of the country - the warm, loamy scent of cows, the cool, fresh spring breeze, and the spicy smell of dew on the green things in the garden. The sun was warm and golden, and the birds were trilling their diverse tunes with all the enthusiasm of their happy hearts. In short, it was the type of morning that, being out in it, you felt truly alive!
4. Not at all healthy, but the little packages of cream cheese and chives snack crackers are so tasty!
5. I mowed pretty much all day Thursday. We have a big yard - a Southern, country yard, meaning lots of sun, 'grass' that used to be a hayfield, random ant hills, a sandy-dirt-and-gravel driveway, etc. I love to mow - it's like therapy for me. But I also love the shower I get to take when I'm finished :) .
