It’s 5am and I just glanced outside to see no frost on the windshield. Nothing unusual there, except I had been promised a snow storm.
Last Tuesday we sold out of ice melt, and the entire rest of the week we had people calling in, asking about ice melt. We were sold out, so was every store in the area. And they kept calling. At least no one got mad about it.
Though we did get a little ice. Just nothing to panic over.

So often we have these moments when anticipation builds up, only for nothing to manifest. A promotion we didn’t get. The school bully that didn’t show up that day. A meal that didn’t quite pan out the way we planned. A date that leaves you feeling a bit
Do we use that disappointment to push harder? Do we feel relief? Is it a help or a hinderance?
For me, this morning, it means an extra 20 minutes I can wait before going outside because I don’t have to defrost my car.
What are you anticipating this morning?
