LIVE AND LOVE EACH MOMENT

SIMPLE LIVING MANIFESTO
When I came across this in my Facebook feed a few days ago, I stopped to think about how much of this am I actually practicing.
Eat less, move more. I am eating less, but I am also eating more. That may sound like it doesn't make sense, but what it means is that I am eating very little processed food and eating more natural and organic foods.
Isn't it wonderful that summer is here and the local farmers provide us with so much to choose from. I am so grateful for their hard work.
I am on a mission to move more. Every day (well almost every day) I am out the door around 7 am to take my morning walk. I may be groaning some days, but I am never sorry once my feet hit the pavement.
I love how the morning sky is different each day.
Buy less, make more. Well, to be honest I am buying things for my new apartment, but I am trying to buy primarily vintage and antique items and I am selling things I already have so that I am not adding to waste and to hurting the environment.
I don't do a lot of making my own things anymore unless you count cooking my meals from healthy ingredients.
Stress less, laugh more. I definitely feel less stressed since I have moved into my own apartment, and I am seeking out people who make me laugh more.
That girl knows how to live.
Feel blessed, love more. I am waking up each day remembering all of the things I am blessed with and all of the people I love.
There are many.
Find a quiet spot every day and breathe. This is something I do numerous times throughout the day and I've found it can be done anywhere.
For me, life is so much more serene when it is lived simply.

GOOD MORNINGS
I love mornings. They have always been my favorite time of the day, and now I love them even more.
One of the reasons is what I see when I walk out of my bedroom each morning.
I love how my living room is shaping up. I am slowly getting the English cottage look that I want by using things that I have had for many years along with some new purchases.
It is an eclectic mix that I will share more of later with you.
Today, I just wanted to show you my first view of the day. A view that puts a smile on my face.
Oh and I almost forgot. Tomorrow is a special day. It is my granddaughter Tessa's fourth birthday.
I won't be there, but I left her a special present. One that she made sure I knew she wanted. I hope my daughter will text me a photo of her with it. If she does I will definitely share it with you.
I'll give you a hint. It is pink (her favorite color), has one horn, and is not alive (although she wanted it to be and told me exactly how she would take care of it).
Happy birthday to a funny, sweet, very serious, and very smart girl.
Wish I was there to celebrate with you.
