Cold

It will be in the twenties tonight here in Central Florida. That's colder than it's ever been since we came, and it blesses me because we've spent much of our lives where winter temperatures dip far below zero and the icy winds seem to cut right through to the bone.

We draped a sheet over our baby tree, but we don't need block heaters on the vehicles, and our muck-a-luck snow boots are still in the plastic sacks they moved here in. We gave away our parkas when we moved here.

Yes, 23 degrees is okay with us. For a day or so, anyway, because it reminds us just how blessed we are to be here.

Oh, for the reader who wondered what Richard's job is: He is a bus driver for Walt Disney World. He does all his driving on Disney property, but that covers an amazing amount of territory.

We are thankful for his job. The pay is decent, the benefits are good and Disney is a great company to work for... plus he gets to bless a lot of folks and be blessed by them as well. Unlike management positions, he can leave the job at the job, not having to deal with it at all hours and not having to worry about budgets, politics and all the rest of it.

Well, It's late and I'm tired, so that's all, folks!
