Awesome faves sis, love you. Your beauty radiates.
ReplyDeleteI love your fav's Melanie, and your toes (is that a weird sentence =) I love that color. I think my toes need to get all dressed up for summer too =) I shall need to be working on that.
ReplyDeleteHave a Blessed week dear one,

I think you look wonderful and I love how you always find such good sales at thrift shops, (is it because you are so tiny)
ReplyDeleteYou look so good Mel and to be able to write and enjoy your favorites is wonderful progress.
Keep moving forward sweetie.....:-) Hugs
Great list of favorites! I also save the tubes of conditioner that come with haircolor to use on my hair. Before using the straightening iron, I dab a little on my hands and run it through my dry hair. It cuts down on the frizzies throughout the day.

ReplyDeleteIt is so nice seeing you enjoy all your summer faves! They each and everyone made me smile :)
ReplyDeleteMelanie, your favs are so cool. Love the salad sounds yummy!
ReplyDeletePlease remember my husband, Clarence in your prayers. He fell yesterday off of a step (ONE STEP) and broke his hip...had surgery last night...is in horriffic pain today and not happy about going to a rehab facility after his hospital stay.
Wish it were as warm here as it is there. I still have not worn flip flops...too cold!

ReplyDeletelove hearing some joy in your voice.
Wow does look like so much fun you are having. Bless you.
ReplyDeleteI found your blog through Rose's.....and I will most definitely be back. Just from what I have read my heart is touched.
ReplyDeleteHugs....

Love "the valley of vision"... I keep it on my nightstand. I don't do flip flops, though. They hurt my toes! And the skateboard pendant... well, who can say enough about that... I know it is precious to your heart and keeps you intricately connected to your boy.
ReplyDeleteAs it should be.
