Yesterday was my birthday, and I spent it mostly alone on a cool, rainy day in New Hampshire...and it was MAGNIFICENT. Perspective matters.

I hope you feel better, friend, and that we get some warm weather soon for all of our sakes!

We went to Polly’s Sunday too. (always call ahead to put your name on the list)
We save rainy day weekends for a trip to Polly’s

I’ve been getting a ton of projects done on these rainy weekends.
I’m exhausted.
