I literally just finished training Briella in swim and I swear this is what she looks like overnight!

Most of the time I’m really good at moving forward.. for the quick and insignificant things, that is. But it’s those bigger, SCARIER leaps that often give me **pause**
As an over-thinker I want to “have it all right”. Aiming for perfection.
But in doing so, many of my dreams & visions fall to the wayside.

As you may know, my current chapter is coming to it’s last pages…though it seems more like the gentle close to a long book. It’s those last moments, you know the one.. where you read the final sentence a few times to let it sink in, you *sigh* as you slowly press the pages together for the last time. Caress the front cover and gaze off in silence contentplating what you just read.
The book was one you’ll remember forever. It made you smile & laugh & fall in love.. it tore at your heartstrings & gave reason for living.. it showed you pain & heartbreak & hellish depths.. but resurrected you back out with beauty & intense strength & growth that you never saw coming.

It was a good book. Forever cherished and held on the shelf with pride.

However, it’s ink is now dry and VOLUME II is well underway. Buckle up and enjoy the journey with me ✌️

My coffee splashed on my bread this morning. And I enjoyed that.

To all of my Eureka folks (or those that wander this way)… please consider participating 💖 this kinda thing is very dear to my heart 🫶

Bringing in Friday with an opportunity to LOVE on some kiddos. ♥️ We have some wonderful friends at the store that saw a need and are working hard to fill it! Every week children in our area are removed from their home and put into foster care. The hard truth is they are often barefoot, sometimes soiled and always needing to feel some extra love & care. They, “Bags of Love”, are working with a caseworker to meet some basic needs by providing backpacks with socks, underwear/diapers, a stuffed animal and clothing. Thrift stores in the area have helped immensely and we want to help too. We are looking for three specific things:
Backpacks (kid sized or adult)
Socks (all kid sizes)
Diapers & Pull-ups of all sizes
We will have a box on the porch for easy drop off. We will be collecting until Valentine’s Day, 02/14.
Let’s show these kiddos some love! ❤️

As a memory-catcher if you will, I pickup a crystal or sparkly bobble from my favorite little place ✨Eureka Rocks✨ on the way to the shores of Beaver Lake with me each time
Whatever fascinating beauty I choose gets to bask in the sun along side me, soaking up the joy & magic of the day.. then are set about the house after returning home, for our viewing pleasure of course

Today, I chose a chunk of ROSE QUARTZ to accompany my birthday swim 💗
…ain’t she pretty & peaceful

Silly me.. I forgot to tell you I opened a little shop ☺️

I adore peaceful days in Eureka.. when the afternoon lull hits and children are content lounging while their parents shop 💛
