Coming at you from the most BEAUTIFUL morning outside right now….warm and humid and very summer-like (trying to merge my love for being out on the deck on summer mornings with also wanting to write):Welp, today is the day! May 26, which is the official “lift” date of the Safer at Home order for my… Continue reading Here we go…Opening Day?
Gratitude in Photos
Since today is a holiday, and I'm sure you are all spending time sleeping in, relaxing with family or hopefully just enjoying your day somehow, I am going to keep this short and sweet. 🙂 I've been having a really nice weekend and just want to share a little photo montage of some things I am… Continue reading Gratitude in Photos
Landscaping and Garden Haul
As I mentioned yesterday, I usually end up doing some yard work, garden planting or flower planting over Memorial Day weekend. My typical “spring garden haul” includes a bunch of annuals for our front rock bed (mostly perennials, but I have planted a bunch of new ones and the majority just don’t come back….I don’t know.… Continue reading Landscaping and Garden Haul
Creative Play and Another COVID Holiday Weekend
Good Saturday morning and Happy Memorial Day Weekend! 😊Here we go, another holiday. This one “feels” a little more disrupted to me in some ways than the others (Easter and Mother’s Day), I think maybe because we don’t usually have majorly traditional plans on either of those holidays in our household.We don’t actually really have… Continue reading Creative Play and Another COVID Holiday Weekend

Our Field Trip to the COVID Testing Center….

Yikes.Trying to get his vitamins in....he has been super into making frozen berry smoothies every morning! Normally I wouldn't really be that… Continue reading Our Field Trip to the COVID Testing Center….
My Gratitude Journey
My cover or "theme" photo for this blog and a picture I feel sort of embodies this whole gratitude movement to me. This photo was taken in Canyonlands National Park, Utah last August while I was vacationing with my family. It was one of those moments that I just felt overwhelmed by the vast openness… Continue reading My Gratitude Journey
An “Off” Day
The purpose of this blog for me was to be a place to share some of my personal life, as well as to be a place to talk about positivity, gratitude, productivity and just overall well-being- sort of my own little journey of personal growth, I guess you could say. That being said, one concern I… Continue reading An “Off” Day
A Reading Dilemma
Reading has always been a favorite pastime of mine, since I was a little girl. My whole family likes to read, so I’ve always assumed it was a learned behavior. I grew up reading, so I never really knew any other way. However, now as an adult, I know a lot of people who love… Continue reading A Reading Dilemma
Lazy, Rainy Sunday
Ohhh, this was one of those lazy mornings that just felt so indulgent.I was up late last night – it was probably close to midnight before we finally went to sleep. We don’t have any plans today and I got a sort of “second wind” after half dozing through a movie with the kids and… Continue reading Lazy, Rainy Sunday
