Happy New Year!

It's the first day of the new year and we're off to a warm sunny start here, temps around 50 degrees. A bit above normal but I'll take it, I love the warmer days. It's January so I'm sure this won't last long but I'm going to enjoy it while it's here. It's nice to spend a little time outside and not freeze. This is something I'd like to do more of this year, spend time outside. I feel I've allowed myself to get into the habit of staying inside even if it's nice out, spending too much time on the computer just killing time instead of doing something fun.

What about you? Do you have anything you'd like to change this year? Anything you'd like to do that you've been putting off? I'd love to here from you.

Here's to your happy, healthy, fun and prosperous new year!

A New Year

It's that time again, the end of one year and the beginning of a new one. A time to reflect on where you've been and look ahead at where you'd like to go.

A time to let go, release the past and move forward into a bright new year. I hope you've all had a great year and that 2014 will filled with much love, joy and happiness and that you have all your dreams come true!

Happy New Year!

November

November is here. October flew past and a new month is upon us. Fall is in full swing now, the colors on the trees are bright and beautiful. All the reds, golds, yellows and oranges, gorgeous! It's the month of Thanksgiving, a time for focusing on all the blessings in our life. But really that should be every month, every day. 

We should take a moment every day to count all the wonderful people and things we have around us. Take time to appreciate all that we have, to tell people we love them and really just be glad to wake up to another beautiful day. 

Today and every day I am grateful!

Have a wonderful weekend! B. <3

Beauty and Color

Beauty is all around us. Life is beautiful. It's colorful and beautiful wherever you look. 

I see beauty in all things, in nature, in buildings, in furniture, in art. I love things that are bright and colorful. Bright cheery buildings, happy colorful walls, lovely furniture in bright unexpected colors, paintings and sculptures, flowers and things as ordinary as your dishes or towels or candles.

I love and need to be surrounded by things of beauty, things that are bright and cheery. I don't wish to live a dull and dreary life so why would I want to live in a home that was dull and dreary?

I think a home that is filled with beautiful and colorful things is a lighter, happier and a more  joyful place to be.I know that sometimes I get busy and don't tend to those little things like making sure everything is neat and dust free, but what a difference it makes in how your home feels when you take the time just to clean it up. You don't realize it until you're done, that's when you feel it, like everything is fresh and new. 

Put out some fresh flowers, hang a new piece of art, get some bright new pillows for your couch or your bed . Or simply take the time to wash blankets and curtains, dust the furniture, vacuum the floors,put out fresh towels or light a delicious scented candle. It all makes your home feel so fresh and wonderful and like new again. It's amazing how something so simple can make a world of difference.

Hope you are all in a place that is filled with wonderful things of beauty and color and things that smell delightful. That your life is filled with things that delight your senses and make your world a wonderful, beautiful place to be.

Have a fabulous weekend! B. <3 

Saturday

Have a beautiful week! B. <3

Beautiful Things

We live in a world of beautiful things. Each of us is surrounded by beauty in some way every day. Some times you have to search a little harder to see it but it's there

.

There are beautiful homes,beautiful clothes, beautiful art, beautiful people and of course there is all the beauty in nature. And there is plenty of that wherever you go. Beauty is all around us, it surrounds us if we just take the time to see it and appreciate it.

It,s easy to get caught up in life with all the million things you have to do every day, but taking the time to appreciate the beauty that is everywhere is important too.

It's important to just stop every now and then just to take it all in. No matter where you are or what you're doing, just stop and admire the beautiful things around you. It might be a sunrise or a lovely flower. It might a child laughing and playing without a care in the world. It might be the kind words of a friend or even a stranger. It might be a beautiful piece of jewelry you see in a store. Maybe it's a piece of art that takes you're breath away. Whatever it is doesn't matter. Just take a moment in your day to enjoy it. Take a deep breath and really appreciate the beauty that surrounds you!

Have wonderful and beautiful day! B<3
