My New Place: Some Photos for You To Enjoy

My welcome mat. I mean exactly what it says.
At the door, Jernee waits for my command.
My new favorite chair. Yes, I assembled it myself.

The living room shot #2.
My bedroom: where absolutely no magic happens, but it’s still magical.
Bedroom shot #2.
Bedroom shot #3.
Sunrise: I’ll enjoy hundreds more of these as time passes–if it’s the Lord’s will.

I have an accent rug to get for my living room, two more bar stools, and two throw pillow inserts, and I’ll be completely done.

I can’t explain how happy I am to be in this space. I am prayerful that every day spent here will be a blessing I will forever remember and include in future testimonies.

Oh, Jernee also loves my chair. It’s probably hers now if I’m being totally honest.

The Little Thief has stolen my favorite spot.

May the upcoming week grant you peace, love, understanding, joy, and answered prayers.

I’m off today. Jernee has a vet visit and I have two returns to take to the UPS Store, and then, I will relax. I will truly relax.

Care Package

One of my closest friends lives in Anchorage, Alaska. She sent me homemade cookies (that she lovingly made) and this handcrafted jewelry box she purchased from one of the local native Alaskan artists.

You know how sometimes you simply have no words for the love you have for someone–how no word seems to describe how moved you are when you think of a person? That’s how I feel about Zainey.

Her birthday is coming up soon, and I intend to surprise her. She’s not hard to please, and she has such a booming personality, she’ll appreciate whatever is offered to her. But, I know what to get her.

I often worry about the way I love and the kind of hard love I offer to others, but something like this takes place to let me know, I’m loving the way I need to.

Happy Friday, beautiful people!

I hope you are offering love the way you know how, and that you are also allowing yourself to receive it, too.

Rest. Refuel. Rejuvenate!

For those of you who celebrate, will celebrate, and are happy about celebrating the holiday, Happy Easter!

May it be a day of fulfilled blessings, congregating with family & friends, and settling into the day as it is introduced to you.

Peace and blessings, beautiful people.

she looks at me with
awe settling in her pupils;
sweet nectar in my heart.

I love harder because
of her, and no one will
EVER take her place.

my love wakes me up
in the morning when the
sunlight kisses her nose.
I’m alert. I’m aware. I’m
forever changed.

she is my comfort, and
the welcome wagons that
come for me and don’t
want her are unwelcome
