It amazes me how little it takes.

I can't begin to express how excited I am that we've been above freezing the last two days.  The weather heads had begun keeping track of how many days we spent below freezing and how many days of snow and precipitation (12 days below [big deal for here] and 14 days of snow [45 of 50 with precip.])  I'm just so tickled that I can be so giddy about 40.  I guess it doesn't take that much.

It only leaves me the question, how can I tap into my simple joy when it seems like there's no hope?  Thoughts?
