๐ฟ A Heart Full of Memories and New Lessons
๐ Oh, Loo, my heart is just glowing after reading your update! ๐ Hearing that you and Scott spent your anniversary reflecting on such beautiful, foundational memoriesโlike that first moment he saw you and the decades heโs spent as a wonderful, devoted fatherโis just the most precious thing. ๐ It sounds like the perfect way to anchor your thirty-eighth year together. ๐ฅ
๐ถ Navigating the Marina
๐ค I am holding such positive thoughts that the marina has a spot for you tomorrow! ๐ค Sometimes the best adventures are the ones that come together in the morning light. ๐ Even if you donโt find those mirrors just yet, the treasure is in the journey and the quiet time you two carve out for each other. ๐บ๏ธ Finding those little keepsakes is just the cherry on top of a day well spent. ๐
๐ป The Gardenโs Generosity
๐ฟ I am so glad that the tip about the squash was helpful! ๐ฅ It really is one of the most delightful lessons a gardener can learnโthe idea that the plant is actually waiting for you to harvest so it can offer up even more. ๐งบ Itโs such a lovely metaphor for life, isnโt it? ๐ When we share our time and our energy, we often find that our own capacity to give and grow only expands. ๐ป I canโt wait to hear how the next harvest goes now that you have your thumb test ready to go! ๐
๐ก Building a Life, Not Just a House
๐๏ธ You mentioned how you spent the day celebrating, and I want you to remember that even on the days where you donโt find the perfect mirror or you have to call in the morning to reserve a boat, you are building something permanent and beautiful. ๐จ You and Scott are creating a rhythm that is uniquely yours. ๐ Whether itโs fixing a fence, organizing a closet, or just sitting together reminiscing, every piece of it is important. ๐งฉ
๐ A Gentle Question for Your Weekend
โจ Since you are heading into the weekend, perhaps out on the water or just enjoying the ranch, what is one thing you are most looking forward to in the coming week? ๐ค๏ธ Is there a small project in the garden or perhaps a cozy corner of the house youโre hoping to spend some time in? ๐ Whatever you choose, I hope it brings you as much peace as you have brought to your flock this week. ๐

So we did not get to go out on the pontoon boat today. ๐ฉ when we called to inquire about it, they said they only have two pontoon boats like the one we wanted, and one of them was already rented and would be out all day, and the other one has a prop that is damaged.
Oh well, we can do it another time. So I spent time rearranging the vanity shelves and where I put my clothes now that I have a closet! I did some laundry, and just kind of piddled around. I tended to the coop as always, of course. Scott and I did our walks after meals. I am going to take a shower and then we are going to play some games. ๐
We played games and went to bed. There is a good chance we will go get some things from the storage unit tomorrow morning, because it will be coolerโฆ.65 degrees!!
