It is so important to appreciate. You can pick anything to appreciate .. right now! Go for it. Pick something that you love to do, be around, or create….

Okay, now did that make you smile? At least your heart smiled just a little. Some of my favorite things don’t exactly make the cut on the Sound of Music classic song but they are things I try to surround myself with to encourage me and simply make me smile more. If you smile more on Monday then Monday will be happy. Right? Make a list of things that make you happy and then work hard all week to make these things apart of your day in small or profound ways. A happier life is just a few steps away. Who doesn”t want to be happier?

Favorite Things:

Baking

House Plants

Thunder Storms

Learning

Reading a good book

Bubble Bath

Reading in a Bubble bath

Walking around Whole Foods in the afternoon with my phone on silent

Laying down and cuddling my dog

Jake’s Hugs

If you noticed on my list none of these cost money just time. Spend time on you and what you love and in return you will be more loving, productive, and happier. Thanks for stopping by I hope your week is happy. 😉

Laundry Day

by Leave a Comment

Laundry is Monday at our house and occasionally it turns into a load a day during the week when we are tending to the garden or livestock. Things get messy around this farmhouse. I think it is wise to take pleasure in the mess. A little mess shows you’re not wasting your time and you’re not idle. Being idle is much worse than getting your hands dirty and making a trail along the way. I will have to do laundry if I like it or not but having the right perspective changes the chore. I am grateful I have a washer and dryer who make this job something I can start and finish in an hour or two. I am grateful I have clothes and towels enough to wash and wear without needing instantly. I am thankful for how much I can go through my own thoughts and desires for the week as I quietly tend to a load. The laundry gets done and I simply feel productive and more put together. Perspective is everything! Pure Barre helps boost my perspective in the same way. If at 9:00pm I feel exhausted and maybe less than productive I can count my workout as doing something great for me today! Join me at the Barre and pump up that perspective.

Blue Skies and Squared Eyes

No white after labor day. Whomp Whomp. As much as I love to wear white all year I do have a few followed guidelines to set in place when labor day hits. White denim is something I savor in summer and store in the fall. White shoes … I am not really sure I own any at the moment but I did just read on the white mule trend the other day so those will be widely accepted in the fashion circles this season and next. White blouses are always in season but I stay away from white linen touches  in fall unless I am seaside and drinking a pina colado. White handbags, sandals, and nail polish all hibernate until spring for me. I like rules and I like to follow them so I am a stickler when it comes to white and when to wear it. However, rules are meant to be broken. If you wear white after labor day do it with clear intention and utter confidence. You will look fabulous in anything you dare to wear. Approach everything with tat mindset and you cannot fail. Thanks for reading! Happy Monday.
