Thursday Randomness . . .

I haven't been feeling well since last Friday.  I have a cold that is lingering.  I haven't had a cold in years.  It's probably due to this crazy weather we're having here in New York.  A week and a half ago it was in the high 60's and 70's.  Now it's in the 80's and humid.  The air is back on and the windows are closed.  I haven't even felt like decorating for fall yet.  I haven't taken photos in a while so I thought I'd share some of this morning's favorite Pinterest images.  I hope you enjoy them.  : )


Wishing you a beautiful day ~ Wendy  xo

The Season of Cozy . . .

It's been so cold here this last week.  Snow is falling as I type this.  I took the few remaining winter decorations down yesterday.  My mind is thinking about spring now.  We turn the clocks ahead an hour next weekend which is definitely a sure sign of coming out of the darkness of winter.  We haven't had a lot of snow compared to our neighbors in the New England states but we have had our definite fair share of cold and grey. 

I've been spending more time on Pinterest than I probably should be.  I can't help myself.  : )  I've found some wonderful pins of cozy rooms and pretty nooks and crannies which I've always been drawn to but especially this time of year. 

This makes me want to see the rest of the house!!!

 

 I've saved my favorite epitome of cozy for last . . .

 Yes, please!!!!  : )

Next up, I'll share some of my favorite pastel pins.  Nothing says spring like pastels!!!


Many blessings for a very happy Monday and a peaceful week ahead ~ Wendy

Sunday Sayings . . .

"It well may be, That we will never meet again, In this lifetime. So let me say before we part, So much of me, Is made of what I learned from you. You'll be with me, Like a handprint on my heart. And now whatever way our stories end, I know you have re-written mine, By being my friend... Like a ship blown from its mooring, By a wind off the sea. Like a seed dropped by a skybird, In a distant wood. But because I knew you, I have been changed for good.” ― Stephen Schwartz

* I found this image and quote on Pinterest and fell in love with it.   Everyone should have a love like this at least once in their lifetime.  : )

Searching for the Light . . .

This morning I've been perusing some of my favorite blogs and looking at the light-filled photos of the bloggers that live in warmer climates while here,  in the northeastern parts,  we've been experiencing day after day of grey.

I'm not complaining here.  I happen to be one of those people that adores rain and dampness and cold and grey. 

  It's a good thing too because I know even I have been longing for some sunshine lately.  This is mainly due to the fact that I haven't been able to take any decent outdoor photos in the last week or so and I'm really getting antsy!!  

 So I've had to resort to borrowing other peoples' light-filled photos from Pinterest . 

I ADORE this!!!!!!

I'm loving this idea of putting flowers in a large glass bowl as opposed to a vase.  The baby's breath looks so pretty!!

Like candy for the eyes!!!! 

Lovely lotus flowers.

 Since I began this post, the sun has peeked thru the clouds a bit and my husband is off today and Megan is itching to go outside so I'm thinking a walk would be perfect.  I just might even get a decent photo or two!!!!  : )



Many blessings for a Thursday filled with love and light ~ Wendy



 * All of these photos were taken from Yoko Doi 's Pinterest board titled "Flowers & Plants."  One of my favorite boards!!  : )

a photo a day . . .

Yesterday, I discovered a fantastic blog called Fat Mum Slim .  Chantelle is the blog's author.  For the last couple of months she's hosted a "photoaday" challenge.  Each day, for the month of June, she's listed a topic for a photo for that day.  If you click onto her website you'll see the list of topics for each day and instructions on how to participate. I'll be posting my photos here, on Pinterest and on Flickr where my member name is ctb003. 

I've always wanted to participate in something like this and she has some great topics for the month.  Don't worry that it's already the second day of the month.  I'm just starting today, myself.  You're not being graded on this.  Just have fun with it!! 

My photo for June 1st that I just took today is of this morning's breakfast ~ homemade banana bread and DD coffee.

  

My photo for today, June 2nd, is of my "empty" breakfast plate and coffee cup.  Thought I'd combine the two photos since I got a late start on this challenge!!  : )

Many blessings for a happy and peaceful Saturday ~ Wendy
