Friday Favorites - 3.25.22 - Home again!

    It's Friday!  As always, linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  for some favorites from the week.  Please feel free to link up or just comment on the post if you don't blog.   First FAVORITE, of course, would be the Florida sunshine  that I could not get enough of this week.  Not only the sunshine, though, but a couple of sunsets too. . . You can see the sunset out there over the water -- there were a lot of sailboats coming in. . .I wasn't positioned to really get "good" sunset views this trip. Ken took Amy and me out to dinner at Bluewater Bay Marina my last night in FL :) Funny enough, by far, this was my best sunset view of the week -- out of my airplane window yesterday evening in Destin! And, as we got closer to East TN, the view out my window was this: But across the aisle (the plane was only 1/2 full so it was easy to see this) was this beautiful sight.  I wish I would have asked to sit on the other side of the plane :). I'll have to remember that wh

Florida Sunshine

  I just this minute took this picture.  I sincerely don't think I could ever get tired of something like this.  Yesterday morning was the first time since I've been here (I came in Thursday night) that I saw the sunrise. . .look how beautiful. . . Taken at 6:30 Then there was even more light at 6:33. . . At 6:49 I had the bright idea of changing up my phone home screen so I could see this every day and took this picture with a different orientation: And now, every time  I unlock my phone this beautiful brightness awaits me :) At 7 a.m. I couldn't resist and snapped another pic :) But then, at 7:01 it had risen just a little more so. . . After church Amy had an errand to run so I sat out by the dock and just soaked up that Vitamin D These pictures are completely unedited -- there is absolutely nothing a human with technology can do to make this better :) Oh, what is that???  A ray of sunshine at the beach???  Yes, yes it is.  We headed over to PCB and it wasn't until th

Friday Favorites 3.18.22 - Ohio & Florida travels

It's time for Friday Favorites with  Andrea  and  Erika  -- two of my FAVORITE mom bloggers!  They got back to school and work this week as MY kids all started their spring breaks. . .and then I have friends who still have to wait until  April  for theirs -- wow.   I'm not sure this is really a FAVORITE, but worth mentioning since it's a big part of who I am right now.  I was pondering this week that I've been "not working" for almost six months now. . .and I've really settled in.  Most people who know me can't believe it, but I've kind of figured out how to slow down and not be quite so intense.  And with all the kids gone on to live their own lives I really have to look for ways to fill my days.  This time has afforded me a lot of flexibility to "drop everything" and help someone out, travel (I've been to Cincinnati numerous times, South Carolina twice, and am in Florida now), and do a lot of projects at my house.  I do jump at the
