I haven't been writing much.
Instead I've been snuggled up on my couch with my kids soaking in the beauty of doing nothing.
Taking afternoon naps.
Watching brainless tv.
Trying to shut out the world and enjoy my own.

It's been necessary.
I'm recovering from change.
Attempting to process my new life.
Trying to find balance in my life and thoughts.

But, in the spirit of keeping the blog alive I wanted to share with you some of what's been entertaining me throughout my down time online.

~~~~~~~

First off...you must check out the Spa Party that I attended last month at Karin's house in Florida.   Sodashi spoiled us beyond belief (their products are BE-yond & would make a generous Christmas gift) and it was definitely an experience I'll never forget and will likely probably never have again.  Karin posted beautiful pictures on how she put it together and there's even a picture documenting my first bite of sushi.  Mmmmm.....interesting.

Found on Pinterest (are we following each other?)...all inspired by my recent move:
~ Now that I have a guest room:   The well appointed guest room  {life in grace}
~ Because my husband despises hanging things for me:   The easiest way to hang a picture  {i heart nap time}
~ I am SO doing this soon for Chloes room:   No sew tutu bedskirt {free stylin}

By the way.
Pinterest is an excellent alternative to Ambien.  Every night I wind down, cozy in bed, with the glow of Pinterest on my phone and the after a bit my eyes magically get heavy and sleep eventually wins out.

You should try it.
