{Day 119}

This week has been so wonderful.  It has been restful in so many ways.  Pulling back from the rush and bustle of life has been lovely.  I’ve been deeply breathing in the fir scented breeze and exhaling long.  One week doesn’t feel long enough…  Do you live a busy hurried life or a full life?  I feel that there is a difference.  I want the later and not the former.  One lifestyle seems so stressful.  Stress is a joy robber.  The full life though is one of purpose and joy.  Not rushing around like a chicken with your head cut off but still being useful and productive.  I wonder all the time where the balance is.  What do you do to pull back so “life” doesn’t take the place of truly living?  Thoughts?

UPDATE!  $34,272.25    Keep it coming! I love putting these updates in the post. 😀

I love that this dress can take me from a garden party look to a chic office look. (Funny side note: I have had this jacket since high school when I was part of the speech and debate team.  I still find it amusing that my fifteen year old self gave speeches…in a suit.)

    Isn’t it funny how some pieces of clothing just never stop fitting you? I have 2 sweaters that I have been wearing for 5 years, and I still wear them!

    Squeal! More precious little ones are being covered up at night with full bellies.

      Yeah I’m certainly not getting any taller!!! 😉 It’s nice when classic pieces keep fitting.
      I love how you put that about the darling orphans. Makes me melt.
