Do you ever stop and think about how you feel? I mean really stop and soak it all in? When I do take the time to stop and reflect, I realize how truly blessed I am to be surrounded by family and friends who love me. What more could I ask for? I know we all scurry around pinning images of interiors we long for and clothes we covet, but when it comes down to it, I have everything I will ever need right here. Now if you love bugs will excuse me, I’m going on vacation with my honey. Where are we going? We don’t know. We decided to play it by ear and be spontaneous. How does that sound for living in the moment? Toodles!
