Here’s a snippet about what her presence and hard work means to me in this stage of life.

This year, I decided to finally use the sheet masks I buy while at TJ Maxx & other fine stores.
I exfoliate on Saturdays, & do a sheet mask on Sundays. This is a part of my skincare self-care routine.
Here is this week’s mask. I love this brand so much.

The amazing lap quilt a dear friend from my grad school program made for me.
I was so elated that she had found fabric with hydrangeas. Those were the flowers my Grandma tended to in her mini garden.
What a beautiful creation to have to round out Winter.
Crafty friends are the best friends. 💜

When my alarm went off, I jumped up to make sure I got to take a pic.
My Southern heart is happy.
We didn’t get any ice, just snow. The snow was so soft that I couldn’t believe it.

Grateful that the winter storm held off last night so that a little fun could be had!!
