One Pebble at a Time...

Earlier, I shared about my mom's work ethic as a waitress. Now, I'm focusing on her work ethic in her home. She always took such joy in every place she lived. It didn't matter what condition it was when she moved in, it was a better and more beautiful place in no time at all! She loved to decorate, repurpose, and rearrange. I used to have that love for my home, but somewhere along the way I got lost.

Today I'll try to channel my mom, finding the love I used to have for this space I call home, attempting to bring back the joy of changing, improving, repurposing, and rearranging, with a whole bunch of cleaning and clearing thrown in for good measure!  A supervisor once told me, this job is a massive mountain, but if you pick up one pebble at a time, eventually the mountain is gone. I'm off to remove a pebble or two!

Wishing each of you a beautiful, blessed day!

That reminds me of the saying about how to eat an elephant. One bite at a time, LOL!

Hi Nita Jo! I lost you, but now you're found again. I'm going to try and catch up on you. :)

Thanks Sally! I haven't been writing very often, but am trying to get back to it. I'm glad you found me again!
