happy tuesday everyone! just wanted to do some updates on a couple of things....
first off is the #4 simple goal: waking up and thinking something positive: a little hard at first to start off the morning as i have been more tired because of the nightly pounces from the little rosalita but after a morning shower wake up it has proven to help! mostly the positive thoughts that have been floating through my mind each morning have been souly about the mister and how lucky i am to have him in my life. i get to watch him sleep while i get up and just the thought of him sleeping there and looking soo cute starts my day off with a great bang! he is my best friend in the entire world and i just love the way he loves me!
spreading the love update: got two things checked off my list! I don't see my neighbors very often so i wrote them a litte note asking them when they were free for a get together and left it on their door step. also wrote my co-worker a thank you and once i get paid will get something cute to put in the card :)
hard to post on a blog but i have been smiling at everyone i come in contact with...i only hope they can pass it on or helps brighten their day!
oh my darling: penpal pal project: this is been sooo much fun! i can't tell you all how exciting it is to get a letter in the mail. Here are some of the ones i have gotten so far. i have been using my type writer which has been really fun but also hard because if you make a typo well there is no such thing as delete...but i like the nostalgic sounds of the keys when typing and i hope the others who have gotten my typed notes so far have enjoyed them.
i had a hard time picking out cute note cards that would work with the type writer so i opted for green paper and found this really cute rubber stamp of poppies that look similar to my tattoos, so i thought it was a perfect fit!

Sweet photos! You look v. happy together.
ReplyDeleteI love the idea of using a typewriter like this. I've been seeking out some cute stationery too. Some stationery waaaaay overpriced though eh?!
I really like your 4 goals. You two look great together! And so do those letters/cards!
ReplyDeleteI love the smell after it rains, too. I'm smelling it right now as I enjoy a warm cuo of tea =).
Hope you're having a great day!
Miki.
How lovely, beautiful photos of you and the mister :) Love the vintage typewriter, makes me want to hunt out my old one and type some proper letters. Keep sharing that love x
ReplyDeleteFun! I love the penpals project too :) I've been keeping all of my letters in a box and I'm going to blog about them soon. Half the fun is seeing what people choose to write on!
ReplyDeleteWOW you have penpals?! I used to have one when i was little but it never went far! I'd love to have a pen pal these days. Love the last print x
ReplyDelete@ kristi: i know i love seeing what the other lovely ladies have chosen to write on too...adds to the surprise!
ReplyDelete@cowbiscuits: by the way i love her name...makes me smile :D yes penpals! i am not sure it if is too late to sign up but check out oh, my darlings blog!
having pen pals seems like so much fun! how exciting to get a little unexpected surprise in the mail, and i love that you are using your typewriter to write them!
ReplyDeletePen palling is so much fun! I love that you write notes on an old typewriter. I need one! :)

ReplyDeleteGreat post and update on your 4 Simple Goals! I must dig out my stamps :)
ReplyDeleteFirst and foremost, you and your hubby are completely adorable together!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I'm super pumped to hear about your latest kind deeds to spread the love, PLUS to read about dear darlings!!! You're too kind -- and I'm pretty pumped to see that pretty new stationery up close. I just sent your letter out today, hopefully it will arrive soon!
Your card idea only makes me want to make cards for everyone on the block! Okay maybe not block because I am shy but I could start with family right? haha
ReplyDeleteLove the fact that you are staying positive since I am trying to do that myself. I will make a little toast "To Being Positive" CHEERS!
@ bees knees: you should totally start with your family, they would love it. start small and then go big :) cheers right back at you lady :) lets keep up the positive thinking! it is really making a difference :)
ReplyDelete@ melissa: thanks for the sweet complement on me and the hubby! i can't wait to get your letter, yippee!
Oooh I spy two of my letters there! =] Can't wait to receive a typed letter from you too!
ReplyDeleteYou and your boyfriend are gorgeous together and I especially like his mutton chops. Is that weird of me to say that?! =]
(I also love what you said about him sleeping there looking all cute - I'm feel EXACTLY the same way about my boyfriend sleeping)
@ poppy: you should be getting my letter soon!! yay! thanks for the complement and no it is not weird to say you like his mutton chops, i LOVE them too! it will be over my dead body that he shaves those bad boys off! hehe
ReplyDeleteI love what you did for your neighbor. My husband and I have only lived in our house for two months and every encounter with our neighbors have been so awkward I'm afraid they think we don't like them. This is a great way to spread the love.
ReplyDeletealso, cute couples pictures!

@ jenni: i totally feel the same way too! they have been really sweet and i don't want them to think we hate them either! they haven't responded to my note and not sure if they will be it was the thought that counts! try it out and see if it works!
ReplyDeleteIn love with your poppy tattoos :) I used to be a penpal and should get back into some sort of mailing project. It's so fun! Oh, and you seem like a pretty cool gal yourself (^_^)
