rainbows in wintry skies
hot cups of tea
time spent at the park
what have you been grateful for this week?
Our Beach Vacation
Prepare for picture overload. And trust me, these are only half the photos I took over the week. We had such a great time with Hubby's family! Here's a glimpse at our wonderful time in Myrtle Beach...
And now I'm wishing I were back there again....
This week I'm grateful for... my mental health
It's not my story to tell, but a situation has erupted for a family dear to me this week, and it's meant that my gratefuls this week are a lot darker than they usually are. Sometimes the things we are grateful for carry so much weight that you can barely shoulder them and that's me this week.
Again and again all week I have been thinking that I am ever so grateful for...
148. My mental health - my mind is rational, clear and disease free. I think straight, I act when I need to act, I make well-thought out decisions that are balanced and true. I'm not depressed, I'm not anxious, I'm not psychotic. I am healthy and shedding tears as I write for those who are not.
149. Safety - I tuck my children in every night with a little rhyme that says "Safe and warm in your bed, peaceful dreams my sleepy head". And there they are, snug and safe until morning.
150. Action - sometimes all the talk in the world does nothing. Sometimes you need to abandon all the maybes and just get in there and act. Stand up and scream about it; even when everyone else is seated, when everyone else is silent.
So, what's making you pause today? Add your I'm Grateful For post to the list below (and please, we love you, but it really does matter that your post is a Grateful one and not just a random), add the button (grab the code from my sidebar and paste it into your post) and pretty-please add a link back to me. Then pop over to visit other bloggers who are spreading a little gratitude.

Selina Lake
Welcome to Friday Feature. This week I am sharing with you the delightful work of stylist, Selina Lake: a long time favourite of mine.
Selina Lake is a UK-based stylist with a background in Surface Design and author of Best Selling Interiors book, ‘Bazaar Style’, published by Ryland Peters and Small. Her beautiful work has appeared in Living Etc, Ideal Home, House Beautiful and Country Homes and Interiors, to name a few.
I love her eclectic style of mixing vintage with modern and the bright pops of pink seen in a few of her pics. To see more of Selina Lake's work check out her portfolio.
Happy Friday, sweets!
