The sun finally decided to make an appearance today, bringing Carolina Blue skies with it, the absolute best color in the world. That’s a huge Wink right there because the dismal weather of the past week about did me in. (I really need one of those “happy lights.”) Anyway, before you go out there and enjoy this glorious day, here are this week’s Weekly Winks.
Every Friday I share the Winks of Goodness I experienced throughout the week because I’ve found that writing down and formally acknowledging these suckers gives them more power. I encourage you to share your own Weekly Winks on my site or on social media. Look around and write them down — share the goodness.
Saturday— Today I returned home to say goodbye to an important figure in my life. (Read more about it in the Cold Springs, Warm Hearts piece I posted earlier this week.) I was emotionally exhausted by nightfall, but my heart was filled with love.
Sunday— I saw a cardinal and a bluebird on my morning run. That’s runner’s bingo in my book.
Monday— Margot and Graydon had the day off, so we ran errands together. She still likes to hold my hand when we walk around. It’s the absolute best thing in the world.
Tuesday— When I pulled out of the Y, I got behind an SUV with a huge blue butterfly sticker on its back window. I know it was a Wink from my mom telling me to keep my chin up.
Wednesday— For my half-birthday (yes, that is indeed a thing in my family), N.C. State beat Duke in basketball (88-66). My husband went to N.C. State, so I pull for the Wolfpack when they’re not playing my beloved Tar Heels, and let’s face it, I’d pull for any team against DOOK.
Thursday— It snowed!
Friday— Delayed school opening = The Tots and I getting a little extra sleep. I’ll take whatever I can get!
Happy weekend! Go enjoy the sunshine!
Love the butterfly!
Thank you! It’s so wonderful every time I see one!
