Savouring January - Day 10 - Nature

While not as chilly as it has been, 
this January day was gray and damp as predicted. 

Stopping by to say hey to Mary is always good, 
heartwarming medicine for both body and soul.

Blessed be.

Daily Guidance - January 9

Our Lady of New Vision
already has a (new) idea in mind
for me, her cherished daughter.

Our Lady is (always) 
Whispering to my Heart.

I'll reach my destination.
My light is already shining
. . . . 
brightly.

Just take it one step at a time.

Going thru some old photos on my phone today
and I happened upon this delightful beauty.

Thanks for the surprise, 
Auntie Joy!

Christmas Happy Mail

Today I received a thoughtful Gift 
from a dear friend
that couldn’t be more perfect! 

 From the label, 
the giggles from the styrofoam pillows 
(clever recycling!), 
to the wrapping papers - 
both silver and powder blue!

And the actual, 
deeply thoughtful Gifts themselves!! 

I’m smitten by the idea of 
“the holy mess of my beautiful life” 
and embracing it 
(as best I can in each moment)
 is where I will be sure to find 
Auntie Joy waiting for me. 

And while I’ve had my eye on it, 
no, I didn’t have the book! 


What a wonderful, 
Joy-filled surprise 
on the chilly, damp January day!

So grateful for my precious friend.

Savouring January - Day 8 - Nourish

Today’s breakfast menu included 
warm, buttery raisin toast, 
a chunk of mozzarella cheese for protein, 
and a glass of milk. 

Savored in the quiet, calming company of angels 
and Auntie Joy, 
my simple meal provided true nourishment 
for both body and soul.

Delighting in the dance.

Happy Birthday, Lisa!

Today is my sister, Lisa's, birthday.

Warmly wishing her a wonderful day 
from one big sister (of the big kids)
 to the other (of the “little” girls)!

And I’m sure Moma sends her love as well.

I took this picture as Moma
was giving Lisa one more haircut 
before she moved 2 hours south
to start a new job adventure.

Love you, sister!
