thought for the day...



As I spend my day painting everything that is not bolted down around here,
with the chalk paint recipe provided by
Carole from the fabulous blog Maynard Greenhouse a few weeks ago, 
this will be in my head.
I am outside and although working like crazy,
I am taking in the beautiful fall day that has been 
gifted to us here in Michigan.
The colors are spectacular and the warm breeze is very welcome while I paint!

I got the kids off to school and then Duane and I went on our daily bike ride, and
I am finishing up my lunch of a peanut butter, apple, honey sandwich ~
my new favorite.

life. is. good.

I hope you are able to take the time to really live today.

love,
Theresa xoxo

  4. What an awesome quote....so true, so wise. And yummm - that sammy sounds great - I'm somewhat of a sandwich snob - but sounds like a combination this crow would love!! Happy Tuesday to you dear friend....Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin

    This quote is great (and sadly true).
    I hope we get to see everything you've been painting.

  6. I've gotten lots of outdoor projects finished lately, thanks to our nice Michigan weather. I've never visited Maynard Greenhouse, so I'm going to do that next. Keep up the great job painting, Theresa!

  7. A daily bike ride? Holy crap Batman! You are a super hero! The quote is great. I am sure that you are busier than a "one legged man at a butt kicking contest" getting ready for this weekend! I hope it is a big success for you! Good luck! I am loving this weather here lately too.
