Find a Shady Tree ...


This Quote Made Me Think ... 

When was the last time you sat under a shady tree to keep cool?

Built a sandcastle?

Drove with the windows down?

Ate Cotton Candy? 

I am glad to say I have done a few things on this list, Recently ...
But I wish I could say I have done more off of the list above ... 

These are the Simple pleasures in life ...
I think we all need to start living a bit more ...
I am not saying, to do expensive days out ... 

  Simple Pleasures ... 

 Bake Cookies 
Count The Stars 
Smores 

When was the last time to bought yourself for under $10?

  1. This list is fun! And I have to say, I did many of these things lately, except eating a cotton candy, and I regret that. I'll have to do that very soon!
    It's amazing how these simple things can make us happy. Nothing expensive, as you said, just simple beautiful things. Feeling a bit like a child...always refreshing. :)

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

Letters Across The Miles

LETTERS ACROSS THE MILES  Dear Jennifer, I am quite excited to be sharing this journey of "Old Fashioned Letter Writing" (online) with you ... It is a long lost personal touch that needs to be revisited. We live in a world of Tweets, IMs & text messages - Time to Get Back to Basics! I wanted to touch upon your recent thoughts on "Perfection". I, too, find myself procrastinating over starting new projects. The fear I will not be able to finish what I start. My second thought is failing myself for not going the distance. I was amazed with a few quick chats and we were out of the gate running with this new column - and new additions to our blogs, "Letters Across the Miles". I think this is the "Push" that we both needed to jump right in! Funny, how you also mentioned how our grade school teachers would ask us to "Show Them Our Work" when it came to Math problems ...and weaving this theme into real life. Can yo...
