Darkness and a Bright Spot

Boy oh boy, was it ever dark when we woke up this morning. Makes it hard to get going.  Clouds hung around all day.
Then this evening there were huge cracks of thunder and lightning along with bursts of rain showers that caused problems with our tv and internet connections.

The bright spot in my day was receiving cards from Shane (Roses, Lace and Brocante) and Val (Yarni Gras).  Val even sent along a ladybug bookmark she made.
Thanks ladies!   Our first day back at school went well, but the day has gone by way too fast.  Time for the sandman to sprinkle his magic.  

Sweet Dreams!

    Days that are dark early like that with it continuing throughout the rest of the day always have an eerie feel to me. Glad to hear your first day back at school went well.

    Lovely cards and bookmark! :)

    At least you made it through the day, dark and all. Sometimes I kind of like a dark morning where I can turn on the lamps and light the candles. Have a good week. Diane

    Looks like every one is spiffing up their blogs for the new year. Yours look great. You made a cloudy day into a great day. Tammy can do.

    Here in Texas, especially through last years drought, this kind of sky would have been the most welcoming sight. Can you believe, we are once again getting snow?? Blessings,Kathleen
