Remarkable beauty can be found in ordinary things simply by taking the time to look.





Hello again! I have to admit that I have been hibernating a bit. Believe it or not it is actually the snow that has brought me out of my cozy den. I have never been a fan of winter. Actually I quite dislike the monotonous gray sky and chilly weather. But, all this candy coating snow has given me such an energy boost. I had a great weekend walking through the snow, pulling a sled and my dogs down a wooded trail and watching the kids squeal with delight as their sleds rushed down the slopes. Even the call of shoveling the driveway brought me outside into the fresh air. I know the snow is putting a damper on everyone's normal schedule but I for one am loving it. I hope you too can find some beauty in your day today. The woods are so pretty right now I just had to share a few shots.


My hibernation was party due to the winter weather but also to the fact that my husband and I went on a little bit of an electronics detox. We are following the diet and lifestyle plan of Marcelle Pick's Core Balance Plan. I'll be blogging a bit about it in the weeks to come. The electronic detox is intended to help you de-stress and give your adrenals some restoration. It suggests you don't use electronics after 7:30 pm. We turned off the tv and computers in lieu of getting some more peace and quiet. It was helpful, but I missed my time "connecting" with the world outside my living room. Now I'm hoping to get back on track with little doses of inspiration for me and you through this blog.

My feel better challenge for this week is to try to breathe as much FRESH air as possible. Yes, feeling good takes effort, time and planning but it is worth it! xoxo
