IT DOESN'T GET ANY SWEETER


I am guessing it's about 70 degrees. The sun is warm and in the shade of the patio you might even need a light sweater.

It's noon on Sunday. The last day of BLISS that is four days at home.

I need to clean some more

I should iron.

I could make lists (I love making lists)

I need to shower and doll up for dinner out.

Instead I am out here breathing in the fabulousness of a glorious late Fall day here.

Heaven.

Feeling happy that I am writing out my Holiday postcards to pop in the mail.
Having something wonderful to sip on in my stunning English bone china mug adorned with birds and berries.

One of my prezzies from Lyn that came in that stunning brown and pink birthday box.

I feel lucky trying to savor each moment.

I loved your invitation and your patio is inviting indeed. Yes we could spend hours and hours there just going on and on about everything.
And you tease me with the Christmas cards. xox

My very first card this season! Thank you very much! I was delighted to find it in the mail! I keep thinking about making cards... but not doing anything about it. Thanks for the inspiration. xo

I'm back. I thought I would make this a habit to come sit on your patio on the weekends. But today, I hold the beautiful little card in my hand and get great inspiration from it. And love. and happiness. and wisdom. and energy and versatility. Those are the things we are talking about today. They will get us through.
