Woohoo... I absolutely love the new plant shelf set-up and I think the seedlings do too. It is so neat and orderly and it leaves the table I had them on open to be used for potting, which is so so nice. Woohoo... I've started to sleep better again, and the past two mornings I've gotten out of...

WOOHOO Wednesday What has you doing the happy dance today?

The trip to Morocco was a BIG adventurous first. My Niece's comment about being OK with the discomfort of learning and expanding goes right along with Miss Mustard Seeds sentiments about doing firsts. On a day-to-day level I think the art classes I take count as firsts. When learning a new art...

Cooking new things is a great way to have firsts.

I also avoided Genie+ for several trips for feeling overwhelmed but did finally use MamFam Molly's afternoon stacking plan at DHS and got much more comfortable with it.

TUESDAY TOPIC: FIRSTS “Firsts” as a topic for today is inspired by one of my favorite décor/creativity bloggers Miss Mustard Seed, who recently wrote about mowing the lawn for the first time and how important continually having first is. In her post she mentions that ‘firsts’ don’t have to...

Wow, what of a huge piece of the puzzle!

That "do you even remember them" was for me, as I've done nothing to move towards what I set out for myself this month. Ugh. I do feel like I'm starting to come back to myself and energy levels and attitude are in a much better place, so no excuses for not making the rest of the month a success...

MOTIVATION MONDAY Can you even believe we are almost half way thru April? How are you tracking to your goals? (do you remember what they are?) What will motivate you this week to make progress towards your healthy living goals?

The latest new facial cleanser I ordered came yesterday and I love it. I also love the haircut and color I got yesterday. I kept telling her "cut more, cut more" and it ended up pretty short, which I haven't had for a while, and it feels great. The color is silver with a touch of lavender...

I was pretty sure it was going to tell me my job should be to be Meg Ryan, since I [picked all of her movies, but instead I got: The clouds burned off late yesterday and I spent a lovely evening in the yard cutting back blackberries. It is gorgeous this morning as well, perfect for our...

Big plans for the weekend... tomorrow my Niece is coming over and we're going to have an ice dyeing extravaganza, really looking forward to it. I've got six yards of white cotton fabric to dye that I'm planning to make Christmas gift bags out of. Sunday I have a new shelf/grow light system...

I am thankful for a bit more sunshine this morning, and that yesterday stayed nice enough that I was able to get out and mow the lawn in the evening. I am thankful for my massage appointment today, it is going to feel really good. I am thankful for all the birdies I can see playing around...

Woohoo... we are also having some sun this morning but the forecast says it won't be that ay all day. As a matter of fact it is forecasted to be partly cloudy for the foreseeable future, but on the flip side that means party sunny so I'll yay for that. Woohoo... my pumpkin starts are doing...

Not exactly a quote, but I recently saw this recipe in my IG feed, and as a non-cook it looks like something simple enough that I might actually make it. Plus, how much more beautiful can food be? One of my favorite meals while in Morocco was a cold roasted carrot salad, so this brings back...

Welcome from another non-meal-planner-or-cooker!

We are covered with a heavy overcast this morning, and we're about as far away from the path as you can be in the continental US, so I think at most we will go from dim to dimmer. The Bird cruise Saturday was canceled because of not enough people, so I switched over to the Gray Whale tour. We...

Character... its a toss up between Tinkerbell and Chip and Dale, all a little naughty and spicy. Resort... POP is my home-away-from-home but I'd love to do one of the deluxe behind EPCOT some day. Live action... Cinderella, partly because I really like Lilly James Animated... Up made me cry...

Saturday I have the bird migration cruise in the afternoon, so I think I'll go to the pottery studio for a couple hours in the morning. The more I have clay in my hands the faster I learn, so I'm all in. I've got one bowl I rather like and one I'm not in love with but am using to experiment with...

I remember watching the last eclipse from the office, we were on the 24th floor at that time and higher than the buildings closest to us so had a good view to the sky. I remember just seeing a fleeting shadow, the most interesting part was looking down and seeing the people congregating on the...
