I have some major stuff on my heart and mind today. This morning, I was just mindlessly watering flowers and starting laundry, when a conversation surprised me with messy, complicated feelings of wanting more in certain areas. As usual, I find the cure for the sometimes painful yearning for something more or something different, is noticing what you have right now. So today, as I often do on Thursdays, I'm noticing these things and just being thankful for them...
- Mr. Ladd, who I adore, and who is always striving with me to grow closer & stronger
- Red Rover Ale and Rampant I.P.A. on the patio with twinkling tea lights in mason jars
- Mico and Buddy, my quirky little fur babies, who keep me smiling and scolding daily
- Flowers, herbs, and vines overflowing in a pile of color in my backyard
- Watermelon Feta Salad with garden mint and sharp red onion
- New friends, fresh conversations, and next steps
- Summer waiting around the corner with blueberry mojitos and friends poolside
- Trips planned to catch up with Wisconsin in July and Jeep through Colorado in September
