Fabricated Friday's- Black Edition



I'm going out today, to spend time with my family and have a little fun. I really don't need to purchase anything and I really don't want to get caught up in the excitement of buying items simply so the person next to me can't have it. Any way you look at it...


Black Friday, here we come!

Holiday Hustle

Between work and holiday home preparations, I have not had a single minute to share my thoughts with you. After some much needed rest, I will be back in full force!


In the meantime, I'm feeling a little looney as I hustle, hustle, hustle!

Pulling Teeth


My hubby got his wisdom teeth pulled today, so I will spend the day caring for him- making mashed potaotes and ice packs, making sure he takes his medicine on time and that he is as comfortable as he possibly can be!

I will also be cleaning the house and preparing for our Thanksgiving guests. Glad to have the day off and ready to see our family.


By the way... why are they called wisdom teeth?

Fall-ing

Yesterday, Greg and I completed the usual Saturday morning chores; washing clothes & dishes, tidying up the house, trips to the grocery store… We were up early as he had to do another radio interview for the Dropout Prevention Summit. As the day went on, we watched several hours of the history channel, World War II in HD- very graphic yet highly educational. But as the afternoon sunlight peered into our windows, we knew we had to do more. The day held so much possibility. Let’s embrace the moment!

Off we went. After a few more errands, we journeyed to the Toledo Museum of Art to view the Chihuly exhibit. How amazing! For a glimpse at our experience, check out Fabricated Friday’s- Artistry ed.)

Even more amazing was walking hand-in-hand through the Old West End
with my hubby. Surrounded by the colorful landscape of freshly fallen autumn leaves- what more could you ask for?




Life, health, love, freedom! Thank God. I appreciate these types of moments. Those that can’t be recreated. Those that build upon the foundation of a relationship. Those that make the tough times not so tough at all.

You see, we intentional schedule engagements with one another. Rendezvous nourish our relationship. We create our own art, blissfully sharing this life together.

So today, as I reflect on our beautiful Saturday of events, I am thankful, uplifted, & energized- eager for our next excursion.

Embrace the essence exuded by fall!
