oh my goodness, what goodness!
what can i even say?
although i didn't find the time to jot down all of the daily details, last month was overflowing with a mixture of wonder, light, and love.
oh my goodness, what goodness!
i wrote these still-true words last year, on june 1, 2016:
life is always surprising us, with that unusual mixture of heartache and joy. we need to pause, to notice and celebrate the joyful moments. they are the reason we keep surviving, we keep striving. they are the reason our lives carry richness and meaning.
i'd like to share MY JUNE GOODNESS today, last month's joyful moments:
good conversations with my dad
finding a wall sconce, a chandelier, and a table-with-chairs at our local saturday market
exciting news from both sons
eric's finished marble floor, in a herringbone pattern
the courtyard cleanup, and flowers
my newly labeled recycling bins
building 3 clothes racks myself
oriental rugs, that had been in storage for years, looking perfect in the villa
first dress-up dinner party, during a summer thunderstorm for dramatic emphasis
cinque terre, on the italian riviera, just a short train ride away
all the design ideas seamlessly falling into place right at the last moment
walking through the villa, silent and vast, after all of the hard work
overcome with emotion viewing the transformation, my dream realized
finally, a real home to live in
two best friends traveling to italy to spend 3 weeks with me
awesome retreat participants (they even brought me gifts!)
an AMAZING retreat experience
