(There's no running water or electricity there.) Just recently we did some renovations and I convinced DH to convert a closet into a 'water closet' by adding a marine port-a-potty. Oh, how wonderful not to have to head outside in the middle of a cold night! But I was thankful for that outhouse for many years, just as I'm thankful for being able to own that cabin, to have a home and family and friends... for the privileges that I too often take for granted. Thanks for this reminder (and the giggle).<br /><br />Carol GarvinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3475732294480121490.post-21943267852301079702011-06-24T18:33:42.133-04:002011-06-24T18:33:42.133-04:00Loved this!!

We celebrated finding a gas station. <br />We should celebrate if we have a roof over our heads, if we have clean running water, and if we can waken each morning.quietspirithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06086016141181470311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3475732294480121490.post-40769785309031883072011-06-24T15:13:39.401-04:002011-06-24T15:13:39.401-04:00I could never get desperate enough to celebrate a ...I could never get desperate enough to celebrate a sweat box, sitting deep in someone's wilderness backyard.

But like you said, Jeanette, may we not forget the things that are truly lasting, go deeper into our hearts and minds than the hole in the outhouse, and are worthy of celebration.<br />Thanks for the laugh and the pondering!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14683245998938431038noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3475732294480121490.post-74675662783955371322011-06-24T11:54:13.046-04:002011-06-24T11:54:13.046-04:00Thanks, April.

It's something I try to teach our little one. We have so much, so very much. Not just in material things but in love, in opportunities. It's easy to take it all forgranted. Here's to a Celebration of Life!Aprilhttp://writersramblings81.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.com
