About The Break...

 Good Afternoon!

Hoping everyone is having a great day!

I want to thank Julie from Rumbles and Roars (blog) and Jessica from The Aestate for giving me a much needed break.  I am so grateful that they stepped up to help me when I was in a hard place.  I love you guys and thank you.  That's what I love about blogging and the relationships that you build..it becomes like family.

I want to share with you all what happened ..

My dad was rushed into the hospital at the end of January for a severe infection.  They did surgery and things seemed to be turning around but they almost lost him.  That was when I called on these ladies and not only did they come through but they were a rock for me.

We drove from the Chicago area and arrived in New Jersey

(going through Pennsylvania)

My dad was stable. Thank God!

(hospital with my dad)

It has taken some time but he is finally home.  Not completely out of the woods yet but we can see the sunshine through the trees.  I am still here being as much a help as I can.

(my kids and my mother)  Can you believe she is 79?  I hope I can look like that when I am that age  : )

So, if you ever think of me say a prayer for my dad..would appreciate it.  Also, if you haven't started following The Aestate and Rumbles and Roars I highly suggest you put them in your blogroll.  Not only are their blogs awesome but they are truly good people.

P.S.  I will also be sharing here later some goodies I have found when I am out and about doing errands for my family here in Jersey.

Wishing you all much love and health!

Could You Live Like This? and a side note..

Yea!  I am so glad it's Friday not for the obvious reasons that it's the beginning of the weekend but my husband comes back today after being in Newfoundland, Canada for the past 10 days.  Why was he there?  Good question..that's where he is from.  I will have to share with you some of his pictures and you will be taken away by the beauty of this place.

Speaking of places, my sister sent me this video of a guy who is living in the smallest square footage I have seen.  It's in New York, which I am very familiar with but have never witnessed personally a place this small.

Here is the video link - NY small apartment.  

The guy has such a positive attitude.

One more thing I would like to share.  Since I have been blogging I have come across some really great people, one of them is Jules from Rumbles & Roars.  She has such a great sense of humor and life seems to be such an adventure.  Her writing style is so relatable.  I encourage you to go check her out : )  Also check out the shout out she gave Modern Earth Design here.

Well, I truly hope your day turns out to be as great as mine will be here shortly.  

Have a wonderful weekend!
