Welcome to South Carolina! BRRRRRRRRRRRR!


Who says that it does not get cold in South Carolina? Here is a picture from outside our Amenities Center in our community. It was a balmy 20 degrees last night and is expected to break records tonight, into the TEENS! I thought I moved away from this! Oh well, when I get to deep into my pity party, I turn on the news and look at what is going on in Minnesota, where it is 30 below! How easy it is to complain when we know good and well, that we really have things GOOD, I mean, really GOOD! The temps are already warming with the goodness of the sun. How much like our lives, when we complain at the slightest indication of discomfort, knowing that it is temporary and all will be well before you know it. When we compare our trivial and temporary concerns with what others are experiencing, it should bring a conviction that we just need to walk in someone else's shoes, perhaps somone in a colder climate with no heat, or warm clothes, or even a place to live. I need to remind myself of this frequently..so if you hear me whining.....please do me a favor, and remind me!
