Library Basket Lovelies

It's been a long, long day and I am so thankful to be home again after a 40 minute challenging drive through freezing rain and sleet and snow and slippery slush...
March indeed!
This tablescape was the scene I came home to, along with a cheerful greeting from two girls who were glad that I made it home safely. I've just had my tea and chatting with my girls who have now headed off to their rooms, so I thought I would drop by with a library post.
I wanted to share some non-fiction with you along with a CD that I placed a hold on long ago... it just arrived at the library for me.
Tomorrow will be my catch up day at home, as well as grocery shopping. The weather is supposed to get milder so the snow will be melting away again...yes!
I am so ready for Spring!
I am calling it a night now, but wanted to leave you with a few library lovelies that are full of lovely domestic goodness...



Today I’m gonna try and change the world
Gonna take it one day at a time
I’ve made my resolution
I’ve opened up my eyes
Today I’m gonna try and change the world

I’m gonna say hello to my neighbor
Greet him with a smile
Shake the hand of a stranger
Sit and talk for a while
Tell someone I love them
From the bottom of my heart
Today I’m gonna try and change the world

(Repeat chorus)

Gonna make sure my children
Know there’s a right and wrong
I’ll never turn my back
On those of us who need someone
I’m gonna try to see myself
Through another’s eyes
Today I’m gonna try and change the world

(Repeat chorus)

Today I’m gonna try and change the world
Today I’m gonna try and change the world
Not for me, but for those I’ll leave behind
I’ve made my resolution
Change it one day at time
Today I’m gonna try and change the world

Don't you just love the lyrics?
It's intentional living at its best, isn't it?
It's the small, thoughtful things we do for others
that can make such a difference in their life.
You can listen to the song but be sure to pause the playlist below...
(I have a wide range of music love, so this may not be for you:)
