Invite Those Mums Inside

The frosty nights are here, indeed.   Actually here in Colorado, the 10-inch snowy nights are here, indeed.  And that means it's time to invite inside those beautiful pots of mums that were previously adorning the front porch.   

We wouldn't want to let all that lovely go to waste.

Those mum plants are so bountiful in blooms they won't miss a few from the backside. So find yourself a nice little vase, or a little tin teapot will do nicely.  And let it add some cheer to your front entry.

Or make a bouquet in a turquoise jar to put next to your bed.

Just think how lovely it will be to wake up to in the morning.

And who doesn't need a little cheering bunch of mums to look at by the kitchen sink?

Now, I don't know about you, but I spend quite a lot more time admiring mums while at my kitchen sink than I did those on our little front door stoop.   Especially lately.   

And you better believe my sweetheart is appreciating that.
(appreciating that I'm spending a bit more time cleaning up, I mean ;)

This has been a very good week - already the shift in priorities has made such a tangible difference in our home.   It's not all peaches and roses, but in general I'm more focused, motivated and altogether happier in spirit.

You blessed my heart so much with all your kind, encouraging, and sympathetic comments on my last post.  It seems many of us are in the same boat, and it's heartening to know we are not alone.  And so, we press on.
