I know that the next three days are going to be cool and rainy so I am trying to get out and run errands today. Then I will be able to spend those days snug in my apartment sorting through things and getting organized.
Thank you for your comments on my post on Monday. If you missed it you can catch up here. It made me realize how much I have been missing the friendships and support I receive from my blog. I have not been able to build these kind of relationships on any other platform.
This is the time of year when I feel most optimistic, and so it has bothered me that life has been wearing me down. I am not ready to feel old, to give up on life, or to sit back and let life continue to pass me by.
I don't know about you, but I am ready to get out and smell the roses more. I have been wanting to take a trip to Canada and visit where I grew up for quite some time, so next week I am going to apply for a passport. No more putting it off. I am not sure why I haven't made this a priority for myself.
As I sit by my open window today and listens to the sounds of people and nature I feel inspired to move forward.
Out my window today everything is windy and cold! Today is a day I don't mind being indoors, but I'll still be happier when I can get out in my garden again!
ReplyDeleteI am going to start gardening Monday after the cool weather is over. I can' wait to start on my little container garden.
DeleteGorgeous photos, Laura. Enjoy your week!!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Katie. Enjoy yours too.
DeleteCold here too. Get your passport and follow your heart!

DeleteLovely spring photos. Glad you're enjoying your sunny day. I'm interested to know where in Canada you hail from. I'm in Alberta.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a beautiful day...

I grew up in Southern Ontario. Hope you have a beautiful day too, Brenda.
DeleteI feel the same way, Laura. Not ready to sit and rest yet. Maybe I never will be. I hope to stay active until the end of my days. Yes- get that passport and travel 'home' once more. xo Diana
ReplyDeleteps. I do think all this gloomy grey weather brings us down....
The gloomy gray weather definitely brings me down, Diana. I can't wait to make my plans for a trip.
Deleteit is sunny here today so I did lots of errands with my Mom. I too am not ready to just let life pass me by! Get that passport! Hugs!
ReplyDeleteYou should follow your heart. Get your passport and go back "home" for a visit and maybe it will help you decide what comes next. We should strive to enjoy each day we have and live life to the fullest! Take care. xx Cheryl
ReplyDeleteLove that you are making new plans to live your life to the fullest. We only get one opening night to this life and I think we should get the most out of each and every day. You go girl!!! Get the Passport!!!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

ReplyDeleteOh yes, get that passport and go to Canada - and beyond! Travel is so freeing. New experiences, new places, so many interesting things. And new people! It gives you a new perspective. I'm so glad you're applying for that passport. You'll love it!
ReplyDeleteHi Laura. So glad you are taking action and planning something for you that you've been wanting to do for a long time. That is great news! If we don't take care of ourselves, who is going to do it? Take care and keep us posted. Susan
