Day 3 - 66 -- Noting the Little Things

I began the tasks for the day by moving the snow around the back of the car and the small piles left by the backhoe that cleared the end of the drive. The sun was bright and warm, making the outing much more pleasant than the big wind chills of yesterday. I then worked on the last of the laundry and household chores. I took some time to watch recorded programs from the past week. I'd seen parts of these but either fell asleep or was focused on something else at the time.

As I've found, some times of day are better than other times of day -- and the times are not the same each day. Being able to add something that resembles normalcy into a day is precious -- no matter how small it may be. Perhaps it gives a bit of hope -- maybe a hint that the way out of the morass will eventually reveal itself. It may also show that the the mind can still function in a logical or sensible manner, rather than the feeble minded feelings that accompany much of each day. Little things can mean so much, yet they can also take my mind elsewhere thinking of times past.

The song today notes how the little things can bring memories and bring us closer. The melody is restful and the singer comforting. The video has many recognizable faces who took part in the singer's final album. Enjoy!

Keep me in your Heart -- Warren Zevon
