A few ways to help you get through difficult times. -Simple life reminders.




Lately,

Things aren't quite back to normal around here, but with time we'll get there.
I've taken a break from blogging since my emotions have been all over the place
My Father recently passed away.
 It's been a difficult time, but with prayer and faith, I've been able to pull through. 
I'm still finding it hard and I do have my moments when I think about how I will never be able to just call my Father up. You know just those simple, day-to-day conversations.
 I know that emotions are good and we all must let our emotions out. 
My family and friends have been so supportive. I truly appreciate it. 
Life is constantly changing. I never really prepared myself for something like this. Honestly, I don't think any of us do. Life happens so quickly and the people that we love can be taken in a blink of an eye.

Let us all remember to enjoy this life.

 A few ways to help you get through difficult times and simple life reminders.

- Love the people in your life and cherish the time spent with them.
- During difficult times, remind yourself that it's okay to cry and express your emotions.
- Healing is a process that takes time. Don't rush the journey and be patient with yourself.
- Emotions are natural and healthy. Allow yourself to feel them and express them freely.
- Make time for yourself to clear your mind, keep a journal, and seek support from loved ones.
- Losing a loved one is never easy. Take a deep breath, let your emotions out, and know that it's okay to grieve.
- Treasure happy memories and focus on the positive moments spent with your loved one. Don't dwell on regrets or things that cannot be changed.
- Although we may lose the people we love, they will always hold a special place in our hearts and memories.

If you are reading this and you are in a difficult place in your life, or you have also lost a loved one, please remember that it is okay to feel these emotions. I promise you will get through this. It takes some time, but you will get through this.

Colorful Summer Flower: Recycled Paper Towel DIY

  Looking to bring a little sunshine into your space without visiting the craft store? This whimsical summer flower decoration makes great use of what you already have—think beads, pom poms, a humble paper towel tube, and a splash of acrylic paint. Bonus: it’s the perfect way to reuse an old frame and welcome summer in style! What You’ll Need: 1 paper towel tube (emptied, of course!)

DIY Tea Tin Planter for Sweet Mint

Today’s tiny DIY win: turning an empty lemon‑ginger tea tin into a planter for a sweet mint plant that needed some love. I cleaned the tin, added drainage, and nestled the mint inside. It instantly brightened up the space — the colors on the tin and the fresh green leaves look so sweet together. I love giving everyday items a second life, especially when they end up this cute. Quick Video Tutorial  I began this little project by cleaning out an empty metal tea container that I had saved. It still held a soft scent of lemon and ginger, and I loved the idea of giving it a second life. Once I washed and dried it, the container felt ready for a new purpose.   Next, I used a finishing nail and a hammer to create a few drainage holes in the bottom of the tin. Since metal containers don’t have natural drainage, this step helps keep the roots healthy and prevents the soil from becoming soggy. Having prepared the container, I carefully removed the sweet mint from its original pot. The ...

Welcome to The Crazy Little Love Birds Link Party #89! This party provides a platform for sharing inspiring content such as recipes, family-friendly blog posts, crafts, home decor, and other uplifting  ideas. Hello everyone! I hope all is well. If you celebrated Mother's Day, I hope it was lovely. How was your week?  Our week was busy.  We had doctor appointments, finals at school, and my husband has been working on a backyard project.  I've included a collage of our week.  My youngest used my phone camera to take pictures of our blooming clematis vines—one is purple, and the other is deep pink.  My husband received a guitar from his boss at work. He now has this one along with his bass guitar.  I've only seen one hummingbird at our feeders. They're so quick; there may be more.  I've been enjoying my time out on the back covered porch. I added a few new outdoor curtains to the space.  My youngest and my husband made me homemade apple bread on...
