Overflowing

With the holidays just around the corner I am getting excited to see this room over flowing with family once again. This year for our whole crew has been full of up and downs, unknowns, and trying to find our footing once again. This table will be packed with food fit for a small army and somehow we will manage to fit so many extra chairs that we mine as well be sitting on each others laps. We will share stories of this past year and look forward to the excitement a new year brings. There will be laughter, smiles, maybe some tears but in these shared moments we will know we will have each other and in the long run isn't that all that really matters? As I slowly prepare a meal plan and contemplate what this season really means I will breath deep, pray continually, and rest in the hope of the season for I am grateful to have these shared moments with the ones I love.

BRAVO

I know you've seen it before, but oh it's really that good. HABITAT by Lauren Liess. I cannot even tell you the countless times I have picked it up since it's release date in early October. It actually resides on my night table. Bravo friend, bravo.

24 HOURS

24 hour pharmacies you are officially on the top of my list of well done services. I'm not sure what life would be like without you. I'm much too scattered to remember to buy the much needed children's pain medicine before another dreaded headache comes on. So an ode to you as I am awaken at 2:00am to shuffle through every drawer in hopes of finding just one more dose from a forgotten bottle. Alas there is none so I run out in the Mr's boxers and a sweatshirt before the little ones headache turns into another migraine. I thank you for coming to the rescue.
