What a pretty combination of everyday simple beauty. There are many things to appreciate in each day, but when you catch one first thing to get your day started, it is special.

Rain storms are in the forecast again today, so the sun light is even more appreciated this morning.

"This is the day the Lord has made. I will rejoice and be glad in it."

Enjoy your day.

The Journey ...lt All Makes Sense!

It All Makes Sense... How does a Nutribullet, Almond Milk, Coconut Oil, Lecithin, Greens and Fresh Fruit fit into my journey and end up being a puzzle part of realizing my dream?   Let me tell you...   Keith and I are pretty healthy people and desire to stay that way. We live simple yet active lives, we desire and enjoy simple common pleasures in life, we don't have a long list of "wants" and we appreciate having the things we "need".   Yet we found ourselves at a loss as to how to make life more significant and healthy for the long haul.   Our Megan led the way... to a wellness chiropractor and medical massage therapist.

While my week of favorite things has not included all the things I mark as favorites, I have enjoyed visiting the memories, people and stories that make them treasures. One final practical thought.. When determining the things I surround myself with, I use this simple guideline. I have to … Love it ..memories to display, stories to tell. Use it …incorporate into my everyday use so the memories keep building.

I have been fortunate that the last few houses we have lived in had a separate laundry room. This makes for a nicely defined space, but it can also cause problems if the space becomes a catchall for miscellaneous items that do not "fit" anywhere else. This causes a crowding in an area that is designed for a specific purpose- laundry! When moving into this new home recently, I decided to break any bad habits of overcrowding the area. Since I was starting with a blank slate, I chose carefully what would go into this space. Even though I stated that this area is for practicality, I still went for an aesthetically pleasing look. As you will see in the photos, I corral many items in baskets and see through jars. I also incorporated the height I have in 10 foot ceilings so I can take advantage of storage space available. ...
