The magic of ordinary days is a novel by Ann Howard Creel that takes place during World War II in rural Colorado. The story follows Livy, a young woman who finds herself in an arranged marriage with a quiet farmer named Ray. Livy is initially resistant to settling down in this small town and marrying a man she barely knows, but as time goes on, she begins to see the beauty and magic in the ordinary moments of her new life. One of the main points of the novel is the theme of finding love and happiness in unexpected places. Livy's marriage to Ray was arranged by her father, and she had no say in the matter. However, as Livy spends more time with Ray and gets to know him better, she starts to see his true character and falls in love with him.

I love that no special tools are needed to use this bag with my vacuum- the domed one-way valve makes these bags completely universal and they should work with almost any full-sized vacuum.
However, as Livy spends more time with Ray and gets to know him better, she starts to see his true character and falls in love with him. This shows that love can grow in unexpected circumstances and that sometimes the most ordinary people can bring the most happiness. Another main point of the novel is the transformative power of nature.
