maybe it's a life outlook.
I've been off FB for a couple weeks, needed to check something and had to sign back in. I think I've spent about 10 minutes on it in the last two days. We won't talk about the scrolling on IG...
But I digress...
I looked at my memories of the past today and WOW! my life is rich in adventure.
Trips around the country, time with friends, a beautiful/bontiful garden...
Then I was thinking about yesterday. I had brunch at my friends' house. I brought bacon and fruit (and apparently my fruit talks because my friend's husband said the peaches told him they wanted to be turned into cobbler! LOL
Most of my friends are married and it's amazing to me how different each marriage is. I watched the two of them do sort of a dance in the kitchen, she made the gravy (because we are saucy people!) and he made us the fluffiest eggs. I really am so thankful to have them in my life. I love a good brunch out, but there is NOTHING like a meal at someone's house. When someone pours out their heart on to a table to end up in your belly, dare I say it, there are fewer acts of love that mean more to me. because I KNOW what goes into it.
I had also cut the front grass this morning and I thought about my little cousin (who is 31!!) who said "no matter how bad your lawn looks, it always looks SO much better if it's edged. So I spent a lot of time today edging and getting the weeds out of the cracks. He's right. Though my lawn is kind of janky... but y'all... my flowers are magic! Ariel sang about gadgets and gizmos of plenty, I've got bee butts, color, butterflies and hummingbirds! I WIN
I also have lots of laundry to fold if you're thinking everything is great around here LOL. But thinking about blessings... at one point in my life I barely had enough underwear to go on a mission trip for 7 days and now I can go over two weeks without folding laundry (don't judge me!) and not even be close to running out of undies!
I'm a blessed lady! see the beauty around you!
