Goodbye July.

It was a great month, with many new

memories to cherish and experiences

to reflect back on. Growth, healing, and

progress were made in this hot month!

Online Shopping.

Another order from our favorite soap

store. We wish we had one nearby.

But short of travelling 4 hours to get

to the store, we instead can order from

the makers of the soap directly. Not

my preference but since Covid we

have found artisans that we can buy

from them directly to support their

cottage industry instead of buying from

large companies. A win win for all!

Fresh Fruit.

We love fresh fruit but find it can be

so expensive because of where we live.

But a new store opened that offers amazing

fresh fruit and veggies at decent pricing. So

much better than the big grocery stores. We

have found ways to make out little amounts

last longer so we don't have to throw any

out. Working well and I'm loving the variety!

Our Deer Friends.

Our little deer friends on a warm Summer's day. We

still get a kick out of seeing wildlife on our property.

An Anniversary.

Not our Wedding Anniversary but the day that

we became a couple, many, many years ago. We

celebrated a bit and did some reflecting on our

little life together. Many things to be thankful for!

Pantry Purge.

Time for the annual Pantry Purge! I do

clean out our pantry as well as our fridge

each week when we bring home fresh

food. But once a year, at least once a

year, I take everything out of the entire

pantry, wash out the storage containers

and wash down the walls and shelves.

Always feels so good after but it does

take quite a bit of time. I like picking a

rainy day or a day my family has an

activity that I'm not going to be part of.

When it's all done, I gaze at it all day!

Visions of Green.

The end of the day light from the West, shining

thru the oval window above our front entrance.

And the beautiful green leaves outside the of

the cottage, picture perfect in the window.

Day at Home.

Foggy morning and then rain this

afternoon. A great day to be home!

Counselling Space.

As we work hard to get our new centre's renos

underway, I'm realizing how much I'll miss our

little counselling space. When we took on this

space, it was painted grey and was not cozy or

comfy at all. But we chose a lovely green, then

found some furniture and our little fireplace, and

now our clients never want to leave! We plan to

duplicate this feeling at our new space. Hoping

we can make it just as lovely. It's going to take

a ton of work but we'll get there. Beyond excited!

Happy Canada Day!

 Happy Canada Day! Our country is only 157 years
old ~ still so young. So very proud to be Canadian!
