I want to thank each of you, who left encouraging comments on my last post. I have been feeling much better, and am pretty much out of that "funk" of feeling sorry for myself. GOD has been working in my heart, and I genuinely feel grateful for this quiet chapter of life.
Can I share some of the little blessings it has held the past few weeks? Like...
New muffin recipes and coffee to drink with said peanut butter banana chia seed muffins.
A new vanity plate on the Jeep, that makes me feel all big and bad... ;D
Days of driving in my Jeep with the top back, breeze blowing through my hair (extra biggg... happy dance for that fact), and enjoying a fresh manicure.
A visit with my old friend, Annabelle, my parents Jersey cow who I milked for 4 years.
And Chantal. One of two chickens I own, who live on my parents farm.
I had my first post chemo hair cut! And I am very seriously thinking of keeping this style, because I just love it!
I participated in a parcel swap hosted by Ashely at "Precious Moments". And adored each gift from Mrs. Barabara.
My Valentine's gift was another blessing found in the mail! A "Life Is Better With Chickens" tee.
And I attempted a photo shoot with the girls. (more of that on a later day)
And yesterday, my husband and I celebrated what might be considered our first courtship anniversary. Although it was 4 years ago. Anniversaries on Leap years are a bit confusing. :D
What are some of the little blessing of your past week? Or have there been big ones?
Have a wonderfully blessed day everyone! Thanks for stopping by!

Annabelle!!!! I still have her somewhere in the back of my mind every time I come to your blog, only I didn't realize it until just now - Annabelle and sunflowers!! I'm so glad she's still around! She looks beautiful! :-)
ReplyDeleteAnd YOU look beautiful with your new haircut!! You look so chic and stylish - and healthy!! Your skin, your hair, your smile - I can see how much life is radiating out of you and I'm so excited to see it! I thank God for His loving, sustaining grace and mercy every time I think of you, and my rejoicing only increases as I see you getting stronger. May He strew your path with beautiful blessings today and every day!
Love to you, dear sister!
Vicki
It's been too long since I shared some of Annabelle and her amazingness! She has been retired as a milk giver. She's now just the family pet. :)And thank you dear friend! I feel so healthy! Another blessing I forgot to share is that I am back at 100 percent in my weight lifting! :D May you have blessing filled day. :)
DeleteWow! What blessings you have experienced lately. I'm glad you are all well. Annabelle is so cute. I would love to have a cow, though I would name mine Bessie or Betsy. :)
ReplyDeleteMuch love to you,
Ashley
Awww... Those would be amazing names for a cow! :D Thank-you for dropping by! :)
DeleteThe short hair is SO you:) I personally think almost everyone looks good with short hair, but I may be a little biased!
ReplyDeleteYour chicken tee is so cute! My husband and I are planning to get some hens this spring, and I feel like I now need that shirt!

Thanks Cristina! I never thought I would say it, but I think so too. :D When I got it trimmed I told my hair dresser (who Ive gone to since I was 18) how much I love it being short,she said I always told you short hair would be for you. :D
DeleteThe tee is from Ruby's Rubbish on Etsy, if you do decide to get one yourself. :)
