Greenville moments: Where can I find joy in the ordinary?

 "In all things give thanks." - 1 Thessalonians 5:18

Tuesdays have a steady rhythm: 

  • work during the day
  • D&D with Red's Raiders tonight
Today, I made a point to step out for a moment between meetings for a quick walk. It's important to let myself breathe outside of my normal routine. Greenville has this way of making ordinary moments feel just a tiny bit brighter. Maybe it's the friendliness of people in line or the way the foothills peek through when we are driving to and fro. 

Joy showed up in small ways today: a productive meeting, the excitement of Ryan about his new job, a funny meme from Dr. Ponsia Bile in our D&D chat, and the anticipation of gathering for tonight with Uncle DM at the helm. All of these tiny things add up. 

Cox & Kin has always been and will continue to be about noticing these everyday graces. The more I look for them, the more I find them. 

As you went through your day, what ordinary moment brought you unexpected joy today?

School is OUT!!!

Today was bittersweet for me.  I am happy its summer break, but that means we only have 2 years before we have a MIDDLESCHOOLER!  I cant believe we are that close already!  Both girls had a great day.  I got soaked walking to get Madispn, then the rain slacked off enough for me to have buckets of sweat rolling into my eyes!  It has been so humid here that i sweat as soon as i go outside let alone walk the more than 1/2 mile to her school.  We are starting a new walking track tomorrow... not sure how far but its gonna be fun to see

sad but true

Since the Pledge of Allegiance and The Lord's Prayer are not allowed in most public schools anymore Because the word "God" is mentioned...... A kid in Arizona wrote the attached NEW School prayer: Now I sit me down in school Where praying is against the rule For this great nation under God Finds mention of Him very odd. If Scripture now the class recites, It violates the Bill of Rights. And anytime my head I bow Becomes a Federal matter now. Our hair can be purple, orange or green, That's no offense; it's a freedom scene. The law is specific, the law is precise. Prayers spoken aloud are a serious vice. For praying in a public hall Might offend someone with no faith at all. In silence alone we must meditate, God's name is prohibited by the state. We're allowed to cuss and dress like freaks, And pierce our noses, tongues and cheeks. They've outlawed guns, but FIRST the Bible. To quote the Good Book makes me liable. We can elect a pregnant Senior Queen,...
