I’m just going with pics today my dears. I’m nursing my broken Spartan heart but I’m trying to get over it (seriously Hotfessional, when do they ever do anything else to you?) by remembering all that is good in my life.

The view from my front porch in the Fall.

My new cordless kettle. And my pretty blue countertops.

Sunday morning’s kitchen table. Filled with newspapers, fruit and plants. Good for my soul.

My living room. Pure coziness. After years of family rooms with no windows, I love the sunshine that pours through this room. And that table in front of the couch? My Dad designed and built that for me.

Royal Gala apples. A staple in the Autumn.

A mirror from my favorite next-door-neighbors ever. Unfortunately, they refused to move with us when we came west.

My Samsung MP3 player. The best way to keep airplane stress to a minimum.

Burt’s Bees Beeswax Lip Balm. My one can’t-live-without product.

Shrinky-dink from Shortman’s elementary school days. It has a permanent place in my wallet.

My pink fuzzy slippers. Extra warm for cold toesies.
