Day 29

Today I am thankful for satellites that help predict the weather.  I don't know how they did it all of those years ago when there were major storms on the way and no way to prepare for them.  What a blessing it is to know what to expect for my drive to and from work tomorrow.

I am thankful for hot weather.  It makes me appreciate the cold weather all of the more.  When ever I get too cold I just pile on the blankets and make a cup of cocoa for myself and family.

I am thankful for tears.  Our tears do so much for us. They protect us against diseases,keep our eyes dry, and show the emotions that we feel.

I am thankful for wash clothes.  I don't like to wash dishes using my hands.  Wash clothes always make them come out so much cleaner.

I am thankful for mountains.  I feel sorry for people who have never lived near mountains.  They never really get the scope of how tall a mountain is.  The song that Peggy Wood sings in Sound of Music "Climb Every Mountain" takes on a whole new meaning when a person lives near some tall mountains.  I always look up to them and think how wonderful the view from up there looks.  Especially from Mount Olympus here in Holladay.   Mountains provide us with protection from tornadoes, verity in landscape, and some other vital things that are vital to our existence.
