    Your week spoke to me in so many ways. We too are having rain in August…5 inches last week, and another 4 last night. So weird. I gave a necklace with that AA Milne quote to my niece for her high school graduation in June, only to find out that it is her mom’s favorite quote, and one that she shares with her classroom students every year. I was accused of “trying to be kind” in a Facebook comment regarding a social justice argument/conversation I stupidly got involved in. I told the person that yes, I WAS trying to be kind, and would continue to do so. And, finally, your gratitude journal cover reminds me of the chairs on the terrace at my university’s student union. You should check out the University of Wisconsin-Madison’s Memorial Union Terrace chairs. Have a great week!

    Hi! Just wanted to thank you for your My Everyday Life posts. My sister is an accomplished semi-pro photographer but, try as I might, my eye does not see the same things like she — or you — do. But I see it if I’m sketching or painting…odd. I find your photos inspiring and instructive. Thank you!

    And the pic of the hand drawing…what the eye sees vs what the mind / hand draws…soooooo true!

    • Tracy

      It’s all a way to practice seeing! I wish I could see the world like a painter 🙂

  • Jerri

    Absolutely love your photo’s! Love the sky pic! Creepy beautiful. 🙂

  • Care

    And what a beautiful everyday life it is! Thank you for sharing and inspiring.

  • S

    I wish you would come to my house and make dinner out of what’s in my fridge! What a fun thing to do.

  • Sonya

    Beautiful photos! I love your window sun-catcher garland. Where did you get it? Did you make it? I love how you decorate your home.
