Hello everyone! Nothing dramatic today…after the last two posts of outdoor craziness, presenting SIMPLE!
A no muss, no fuss, winter white outfit for a nice evening out with hubs. A dark brown lace cami with a single strand of pearls…that’s it!
An email from a friend…
Layman’s 10 Commandments.
Someone has written these beautiful words. It’s a must read. They are like the ten commandments to follow in life all of the time!
1] Prayer is not a “spare wheel” that you pull out when in trouble, but it is a “steering wheel” that directs the right path throughout the journey.
2] So why is a Car’s WINDSHIELD so large & the Rear View Mirror so small? Because our PAST is not as important as our FUTURE. So, Look Ahead and Move on.
3] Friendship is like a BOOK. It takes a few minutes to burn, but it takes years to write.
4] All things in life are temporary. If going well, enjoy it, they will not last forever. If going wrong, don’t worry, they can’t last long either.
5] Old Friends are Gold! New Friends are Diamond! If you get a Diamond, don’t forget the Gold! Because to hold a Diamond, you always need a Base of Gold!
6] Often when we lose hope and think this is the end, GOD smiles from above and says, “Relax, sweetheart, it’s just a bend, not the end!
7] When GOD solves your problems, you have faith in HIS abilities; when GOD doesn’t solve your problems HE has faith in your abilities.
8] A blind person asked St. Anthony: “Can there be anything worse than losing eye sight?” He replied: “Yes, losing your vision!”
9] When you pray for others, God listens to you and blesses them, and sometimes, when you are safe and happy, remember that someone has prayed for you.
10] WORRYING does not take away tomorrow’s TROUBLES, it takes away today’s PEACE.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest to God.

For some reason your posts don’t always appear on my “read blogs” list and I miss your posts! I have to go to your site sometimes to make sure I didn’t miss anything! Glad I check because here you are all warm and pretty in cream. This week is supposed to warm up again and maybe no wind so you can return outside for your shoots!! Have a great weekend!
I’ve also noticed that on mine as well. Hmm…
Haha…yeah, no more freezing my buns off. I do prefer outdoor photos…so I hope it will stay pretty & warm this weekend.
Hope you have a terrific weekend as well! Need to go to bed now…
So beautiful! Yes you and the quotes. They are a real help right now as I. Going through a rough patch. Thank you so much!
