start over

I felt a little weary today. Sore muscles, sore throat, blustery winds, whiny boys, dirty dishes, mountains of school work... I really needed to find some beauty. I set everything aside and just started looking for:

clean spaces (sometimes they are hard to find),

pretty words (I still have to hang it, it's just leaning against the wall),

squishy spots (pillows on my bed),

comfort food, (chicken pot pie- I did some freezer cooking this weekend and it was so lovely to just pull this out and pop it in the oven! I didn't have any, but I'm told it was yummy.)

streaming light (towels hanging on my bathroom door),

and silk flowers (my dad makes fun of this sweater. once he mistook the flowers for a napkin? put on your glasses dad! *giggle*)

By the end of the day I just wanted to wear this, eat this, drink this, curl up here...

and start over again tomorrow.

Sheets and twinkle lights are now on my to do list.
