12.27.2022 | Sunny Tuesday

Day:  34-degrees  |  Night:  27-degrees
The sun is shining, and the skies are blue over the Carondelet Garden on this last Tuesday of 2022.  It's a cold start to the day here in South Saint Louis with temperatures still lingering in the teens.  Changes are coming!  Warmer weather is moving back in which means I can get the outside Christmas decorations put away for this year.

There's something special about wispy white clouds on a bright blue sky in Winter.  The very sight of it makes me smile and gives me a lift of hope.  The holidays are hard for so many of us.  I have so much to be thankful for, yet the demons still sometimes attack.  That's when you cling to whatever hope you can find.  Wispy white clouds on a bright blue sky? It lifts my spirits for sure. A warm cup of tea on a quiet winter's morning. The love of the most wonderful person in the world. Yes.  I count my blessings.  They are abundant.  The light comes but we have to open the door to let it in.  Count your blessings.  Look for the goodness and kindness around you.  Hang on to hope!

Sunny skies with winds out of the South at 10 to 15 MPH.  It's a beautiful morning with the promise of warming temperatures.  Hope is alive and well if we look for it.  That's all the news from the Carondelet Garden.
