    This sooo made me smile. Recently engaged in a genealogy project, I have so become appreciative of 'in door plumbing'.

    Caregivingly Yours, Patrick

    Most of us wont appreciate it till it's gone or when we encountered water cut.

    There is so much we take for granted. I sometimes will look at the meal on my plate and consider all the steps that had to occur for it to make it there. And, honestly, I am always left thinking what a miracle it is.

    I too see beauty in every day things.
    We often take so much for granted.

    And I appreciate it most when it is warm on a cold day - even more than when it is cool on a hot day.

    Imagine being without water or electricity - we depend on so many things that we forget to appreciate the things in front of us. Great post.

    It's the little things that matter. But really, having clean water is a HUGE thing, so many people don't have it! Did you re-do your blog look or is it just me? It looks more streamlined and different.

    It is the small things that make my day, and I agree wholeheartedly about the miracle of water running from a tap. That said, it worries me that we still use drinking water to flush the toilet. I want/need a rainwater tank (and the rain to fill it).

    I love the sounds of flowing water! And you are so right! It is a real blessing!
    To have it available right in our own homes!! In convenient places as well...like our sinks and bathtubs! A pure blessing!
