About Me

February 4, 2024

Right Here. Right Now.

 

What I'm wearing .... jeans with a hole in the knee, a light t-shirt with lace trim, my black zip up hoodie, black socks with flowers, and my warm slippers. It's a messy hair day!

What I'm reading .... the following magazines so I can return them to the library on Tuesday when I'm in town: Dollhouse Miniatures, Mary Jane's Farm (x 2 issues) and Country Living U.S. Edition (x 2 issues). The CL I'm trying to see if it's anything like the Country Living U.K. Edition that I buy each month and love, love, love! So far, I like the U.K. version better, probably because of how we designed our cottage, things I love in life, some British ancestry and our lifestyle.

What's happening in my kitchen .... dh has our scrumptious Sunday dinner in the crockpot. I skipped lunch just so I could have lots of dinner tonight. Can't wait to dig right in!

What's outside my window .... a very cloudy, foggy, misty day. Feels so good to be home, in our warm and cozy cottage. It's supposed to snow but so far, we've not seen any flakes today. Other parts of our Province have had snow and ice, with many warnings to not travel. Will see what happens.

What I'm thankful for .... my family, my home, my friends and our community. Feeling blessed, safe and loved.

What I'm smelling .... dinner in the crockpot. Smells Heavenly!

What I'm hearing .... a documentary on Netflix, while we both tap away on our laptops. Once we're done, we're going to build another bit of our new Lego project we started.

What I'm crafting .... playing with paints today to see what color to paint the exterior of the big dollhouse I received at Christmas. Difficult to figure out the correct shade.

What's on my mind .... my mom's health, the many projects we're working on, announcements that need to be made this week, and our big anniversary in the Summer. A mix of good, exciting, not so great and lots of hard work coming up!

Words to live by .... the quote for today: "There is something delicious about writing the first words of a story. You never quite know where they'll take you." ~ Beatrix Potter. I love her words! As I continue to write as much as I can, these words swirl in my head. I also chose Beatrix Potter today for my quote because of the image above, a sweet little garden scape that I hope to create in our Secret Garden this Summer. Spending time today to figure out how and where to find, or maybe even try to make the items needed to create this. Wish me luck with this new creative project!

Hope you enjoy this week's quote.

Having an amazing week!

Loved discovering your blog. We've got a cold and clear day in New York City and tonight I'm blogging and working on Valentines. Have a great week!

Thank you for visiting Buttercup! It's now snowing and the roads are not good. So thankful we work from home and don't have to venture out tomorrow.

Enjoy making your valentine's!
