So many, as my dear friend Katie would say, "happys" right now in my life. Simple things just make me want to get started with my day and see what transpires. Right now color has got me in it's grips. My current rug hooking project has not gotten to be the least bit tiresome... and I'm almost done with the hooking part. Usually at this point I'm screaming to finish and move on to something new. It's working with these colors that keeps me inspired.........
Other joys are, of course, my friendships. My friend, Ann, is now a happily retired art teacher. She and her friend Linda are creating the most awesome Hope Vases that they take to hospitals and other places where people are ill. They also sell their vases to make more $$ for supplies to make more vases. Please visit their blog. The other day Ann and I went to lunch and she gave me this delicious ginger tea. I adore simple and consumable gifts.... and I love this box!
Another lunch date with my fabulous friend Jessy
She's growing her hair out silver, and rocking this soft blonde look at the moment. Sweet Jessy gave me this most thoughtful little basket full of happys.....
Fun goodies to play with. Jessy made me this wonderful date book. It's put together in her luvvly jubbly fashion.... and it's my most fav thing! I carry it everywhere!
See the little sewing kit she added? Isn't it just the sweetest thing?!
And while I'm blogging about simple wonderful happys, I must include our most incredible Botanical Center where I walk almost daily.
There's a gorgeous lake full of water fowl, and trails that follow a beautiful wooded creek. We are so lucky to have a better than average parks department here. There's trails that go all over our city, and are connecting with other nearby towns around the state.
Well friends...... thanks for reading about my little happys in this corner of the world. I know you have your most wonderful happys wherever you are........ and I love visiting and seeing your world.

Great post! So positive! Love it! I'm pretty happy lately myself. Just turned 50 and love it! Just sold another 2 skeins of yarn on the Etsy shop. Your rug is awesome. I adore the colors.
Have a super week!
