I cannot believe it. I went outside yesterday and cleared the snow from the porch and the porch steps. Then, I shoveled a pathway to the driveway and shoveled half of the driveway. What did I wake up to today? More snow! Nononononono! C&#8217;mon weather gods, have pity on me!<\/p>\n<p>Well, I&#8217;ll deal with all of that outside later. For now, I need to deal with the next phase of &#8220;The Wall.&#8221; The end is within reach and I&#8217;m not giving up. I also need to show you my photo for this week. The theme at <a href=\"http:\/\/sundayshutterbugs.blogspot.com\/\">Sunday Shutterbugs<\/a> is Door. Well, since I&#8217;ve been so focused on The Wall and getting stuff handled around here, I didn&#8217;t take the time to go take a cool picture. I had some awesome photos from England that I wanted to share, but I can&#8217;t find them anywhere. I&#8217;m a bit freaked by that.  So, instead, I went back to May of last year and found this photo.<\/p>\n<p><center><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/craftsbykatie\/4384720179\/\" title=\"Hallway to Robing Area by kroets, on Flickr\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2786\/4384720179_13b926c1c4.jpg\" alt=\"Hallway to Robing Area\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/center>This is actually a set of doorways.  These are important doorways. These are the doors that I walked to on my way to Commencement 2009.  I almost didn&#8217;t go because I didn&#8217;t have anyone there cheering for me, but I went because I had walked through a lot of doorways and up a lot of hills to get to that point. I won&#8217;t say it was easy. It wasn&#8217;t, but I don&#8217;t regret any of it for a moment.<\/p>\n<p>I want that for all of you. I&#8217;ve learned that sometimes the most rewarding things are the most difficult things to achieve. I count cleaning, organizing and decluttering in that. I know just how hard it can be to start, let alone to finish. When your physical surroundings are in chaos, so are you. I want you to find peace. So, your challenge for today is to go through your bed linens. Do you have those that have holes in them; that are just plain wearing you? Donate them to a local animal shelter. Get them out of your house and keep only those that will surround you in comfort and peace while you sleep.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/s227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/?action=view&amp;current=Name2.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/i227.photobucket.com\/albums\/dd163\/kroets\/Name2.jpg\" alt=\"Photobucket\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Happy middle of a darned snowy week, everyone!
