{happy day}

Well hello there!!
Happy Sunday to you!


Guess what....the SUN came out today!!
I was soooo excited! We haven't seen the sun since......well since the last time I posted about the sun:)

I love the sunshine...it just makes me so motivated! Even with a terrible cold right now...I still accomplished a lot today:)


Blue skies! I love them! And January in Indiana....really makes you appreciate them! It really is the little things that mean so much  in life!


We were all happy today! Even the birds were singing more than usual! Who cares there's a major winter storm on it's way....today I just enjoyed the moment!
Another good thing to remember....sometimes you just have to live in the moment:)






I was super busy with Simple Daisy today!! Thank you... Thank you:):) I can't even tell you just how happy it makes me to keep on moving forward in the direction of my dreams!!
And you know what...I have you to thank for that!!!!

Thank you Becky at Beachsnaps for doing a little post about Simple Daisy packaging!! So nice of you:)






And I finished up some odds and ends in my plan to spruce up our bedroom!
It's funny how when the seasons change I want to completely switch up my decor!
I just painted some things white, got a new duvet cover and changed out the bedside tables!
Still more to do...but it's a start!





Aren't those little tables cute!! Someone in our family built them......out of paneling and junk wood...they were pretty sad! My husband brought them home and couldn't quite figure out why I wanted them.....but look at them now! Nothing that a little paint and sanding can't take care of:):)



Can't wait to show you this little bathroom when it's finished! It's actually our master bath....I guess in the 70's {when our home was built} people just weren't into grand master baths!

It's so small you can barely fit 2 people in there at the same time!!!

It won't be the beachy style I like...it is afterall my husband's bathroom and he likes a little more modern style...and well.....he wasn't in love with the baby blue shower, toilet, and sink....me...I could have worked with it!! So it was time to make a change!

Hopefully we'll be done in a couple of weeks....still have to tile the shower!

but back to the bedroom!! It really should be your little happy space! Is your bedroom your happy space!?!?

Even Ruby approves!
Now if she would just stop leaving her black hair everywhere....I would be a lot happier:)



I hope you have a happy week! It sounds like we might be snowed in:(
I know I am still holding onto the thought that there really are daffodils underneath all that snow...just waiting to peek their pretty little heads out of the ground!!!

"A great attitude does much more than turn on the lights in our worlds;
it seems to magically connect us to all sorts of serendipitous opportunities
that were somehow absent before the change."
-Earl Nightingale

Loved the new look you gave your sidetables! if you have a second, be sure to stop by...you'll be happy you did! I'm hosting a giveaway with your name all over it! xoxo {av}

  3. Hello Sunshine! So happy to hear your thoughts, see your master coming along, and enjoy your doodles! You remind me of Sark, have you read any of her books? I blogged about her before here if you want to check it out:

  4. Oh yeah...Daisy girl...you'll be seeing daffodils and tulips soon. Know that! Also know that the thought of being snowed in sounds delectable. Delightful.

    Close your eyes and will the sound of the waves to you. They are there. Trust.

  5. Our sunshine did not last very long. It was cloudy and gloomy here today. But what a glorious day yesterday was!

    I picked up a new duvet too. I need to see how it fits and then wash it. I'm ready for some lighter and brighter too. Yours is looking great!

  6. Love the bedside tables, they came up great. Wondering what you'll put above the bed. Our bedroom isn't finished, but for now I'm good with it, because it's tidy and has lovely white linen on the bed.

    Have a great start to the week,

    Cheers,

  11. I know EXACTLY what you were feeling today, Heather! The sun was shining here in Michigan, too - along with bright blue skies and dripping icicles. :) It was just beautiful! I was painting my armoire today in the living room, and it was so wonderful to feel the heat of the sun on my back. ♥ Your bedroom is really coming together so nicely! I ADORE my bedroom. It's my most fav room in the house now. :)

  13. Ohhh...memories are returning. When I lived in PA, I would RUN across the snowy backyard to join my friend in her hot tub...usually late at night...and drink wine. It was "OUR" time...just we two girls. Special!!!

    I am so happy you had some sun today. You sound almost euphoric...and it certainly spurred you on with your projects. Love the earrings!!! Love the tables!!!

    Happy day...
    Jane (artfully graced)

    ps I cannot wait to get my necklace. This one is for ME! I also sent you an email re: a custom pair of earrings...did you get it? I wanted a special pair to wear at my son's wedding at the end of March.

  15. So glad the sun came out in your neighborhood! I like the white duvet in your bedroom. White and light blue always brightens things up. I painted our spare bedroom, which also serves as "my space" a beautiful summer blue.It's very cheerful.
    Happy week to you!!

  23. it's that time of the year--dreaming of spring and doing a little house re-do...I'm in the process of reworking my laundry room :)...cleaning, that is. I have no plans to redecorate much...just plans for some pretty containers for soaps, etc....organizational pretties.
