hey there! how are you today? 

i found a few mugs at goodwill, last week. they are just perfect, for the autumn season...
cider, coffee, tea. i kind of love them ; )

simple 
simple























everyday life
slow

i downloaded this series from i tunes. update~ i had problems with the itune download, so decided to be patient, and ordered the series on dvd, from amazon. ; )
if i run errands today, and grab some magazines and ice cream  yogurt, i think it should make for a most beautiful weekend. big wink!

and thank you, for the patience and love, you offer me as i walk toward, being brave. : )


big smiles + happy weekend!

This quote often helps me remember how brave we all are:
“If ever there is tomorrow when we're not together.. there is something you must always remember. you are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think. but the most important thing is, even if we're apart.. i'll always be with you.”

Winnie the Pooh quotes

I hope it helps you,

Much love and hugs to you, Christina

Love the photo of the light on the floor. Why don't I ever think of photographing things like this? I think it's because you are a photographer and I'm a wanna-be who's not quite there yet.

Much love.

Hey there, Christina!

First, I have to tell you that your new updated look is terrific! You're giving me a good kick in the butt to redo mine after seeing what a great job you did with yours. Thanks for that.

Second, that IS the perfect mug for cider-sipping autumn. Hmmm...I've been thinking of going to the local goodwill this weekend, too.

You are full of good ideas today. I hope you have a great weekend with Gwyneth, Mario and your family. :)

Thanks to your loyal subjects, I finally started a collection of Winnie-the-Pooh quotes. Thanks to your lovely photos, I am inspired enough to lay on the floor with my camera. (spirits willing, but the flesh may be um, weak) May you have as inspirational a weekend as you have given to all of us : )

I have been gone too long, once again, always, and the lovely soft yellow flower in your banner makes me happy, happy, and of course, the simple, simple that makes life wonderful.
