Weekend Wisdom: Do less.
I went hiking early Sunday morning and looking at the very few pictures I took, I see that I didn't capture the whole experience.

AND NOW, ON TO THE FAVORITESClick here to see all of the Weekend Favorites (including: 5 ways to stop stuff shuffling, simple pleasures I'm enjoying lately and how to get ready for a full house declutter). I hope you enjoy these Weekend Favorites and go to bed early, create time for self care and enjoy something lovely. Share the love!

Weekend Wisdom: You don't have to explain yourself. I wrote this last year and I feel exactly the same way today. When I look back on the summer of 2025, I want to remember my first bite of a tomato sandwich, the summer romance novel I was reading, the outdoor concert with my family and the early morning walks and coffee in the backyard.
