So, I can’t lie.
This is not my usual kind of book.
It was given to me
either as part of a trade
or from the sweet woman
down the street
who randomly gave me
a laundry basket full of books.
It was cute and quick,
a relaxing sweet read…
and sometimes,
that is exactly what you need.

I know it has been a minute since I have been here.
I had a crazy good summer, that I did take lots of photos of
but I found it hard to find the time to sit down
and write anything…
Now that fall is officially here,
I feel like the creative side of me
is stirring again…
and it’s a good feeling.

THINGS I AM LOVING RIGHT NOW::
♥ my daughter moved home recently for a little bit
and i couldn’t be happier. ♥♥♥
♥ spending whole days parked by the water
reading, journalling, watching the waves crash….
♥ watching videos about people
living and traveling in their jeeps
makes me think…also
i would like a drone.
♥ picked up the new bella grace magazine
and can’t wait to read it
♥ dirt roads. :)
I loved this book.
I actually had no idea that
it was part of a trilogy until just now.
(and the truth is
I have waiting so long to write these reviews
that I am going to find it a bit of a struggle now…
hahaha. My memory is always faulty
after finishing a book…)

NEXT UP:: JUST A DAY AWAY - NORA ROBERTS
Something has been a little off
with me lately…
and I kept waiting for it to pass
but it’s not.
I feel
a little
loose around the edges,
lost…frayed…
blurry and out of focus.
I am not making to do lists,
I am not getting anything done….
but I am definitely
watching too much tv…
this does not make me happy.
At the end of the work day,
I seem to be struggling
with what to do next…
decisions are always hard for me.
But lately, I feel like I am just
flittering around
never landing on anything
for any amount of time
until I sit down to watch a show….
and that happens too fast and
too frequently.
So.
I made myself a
Jar of Inspiration.
Now, when the work day ends,
if I don’t have a definite plan,
I will pull something from the jar
and do that…
and see where it goes…
The list includes things like:
draw
read
yoga
meditate
dance party
color
make a card
try origami
watercolors
edit
online course
vacuum
random toy photo session
go for a walk
bubble bath
blog
AND
no turning the TV on before
8 PM…
I’m kinda excited about this.
:)
friday morning
of a four day weekend
that will include
prepping my garden finally,
shooting a wedding
(am i nervous? eff yes),
getting my first COVID shot
(not sure this has to be mentioned
BUT I HATE NEEDLES MORE THAN
TURNIPS),
checking some ice cream off my list
and whatever else
i can fit into
four June days.
♥ this has changed my life…i love corn on the cob!
and i love my microwave. heh. win/win.
♥ i love reading about how other people
relax, practice self care, look after themselves…
♥ a little retail therapy lately that got me this
adorable shirt from ardene…i can’t tell you
how excited I get when i find peter pan collars…
i really am a dork, it’s ok…you can say it. :)

meh….whatever….if you can’t change it,
learn to accept it…heehee.
