I havn't crocheted in years but decided to see if I could re-learn with this simple dishcloth pattern. It was really fun to make and not very hard at all. It does make washing the dishes a little more pleasant too!
Seems like the older I get the more I like to wash dishes! Sounds crazy but I find myself using the dish drainer more and more and not using the dish washer so much. And I love all the new aroma therapy dish washing liquids. Washing dishes can be a time for counting your blessings and just being thankful for all of God's gifts.
If you're washing dishes you:
1. most likely are
not hungry
2. are at least
healthy enough to be standing over a sink of dirty dishes
3. have a
roof overhead and a place to sleep
4. have an adequate supply of nice, clean, and hot
running water and dish soap for bubbles!
5. will be able to enjoy seeing your nice, shiny sink and
sparkling dishes soon!
Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what
we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into
acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It
can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a
stranger into a friend. Gratitude makes sense of our
past, brings peace for today, and creates a vision for
tomorrow.
