Sometimes it is the unexpected surprise that can make your day. When I got back from walking Buddy yesterday I found these beautiful flowers in my door.
A sweet friend of mine surprised me with these and left them with a beautiful card. It is these little acts of kindness that can help during this very scary, anxious and time of isolation like this that helps keep hope alive.
Thank you sweet friend. This was an unexpected surprise that made my day.
What are you doing to make the isolation from human contact bearable. I miss my family so much. Facetime helps but it is not the same as contact hugs and kisses.
This too shall pass and it is not forever so I hold on to that.
Have a good weekend. If the weather is good Terry and I are going to start to paint the She Shed. Woo Hoo that will be fun and exciting. Big Virtual Hugs, Kris |
Your home looks so beautiful! Enjoy the sunshine and I hope the shed painting goes well. Have a happy weekend xoxoxox
ReplyDeleteSpring looks pretty in your home. Have fun painting the she shed!

Sunshine is a blessing and looks great in your home. And flowers from friends? What a treat!! xoxo
ReplyDeleteI know you are happy to get out in the sunshine. What a lovely surprise from your friend. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteHow lovely, and we have been working outside in the sunshine... hubby in the yard and I've been in tthe greenhouse. Your home looks gorgeous in sunshine, and here it shows off the dust motes, so well, LOL.
ReplyDeleteSweet friend and the flowers are a treat, Sandi.
Everything looks so pretty! Sweet friends. xoxo Su
ReplyDeleteYour spring decor is so cute! Have fun painting your she shed. You lucky girl!
ReplyDeleteThe pillows look perfect on the couch. She Shed will be a great way to do something and be fulfilled at the same time.
ReplyDeleteGood morning my friend.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful surprise to get a bouquet of spring on you door!
How welcoming your blue and white room is; though I have my yellow pillows out with a touch of blue, I still have a few winter items out such as my white fur throws. I think that this weekend, which will hopefully be school-free, I am going to put winter away and open up my spaces for a full spring blowout of JOY.
LOVE THOSE BUNNIES!
Your home is beautiful, Kris. Cute pairing of bunnies with the carrots. How sweet of your friend to drop the flowers. Last night I heard a newscaster say we're one day closer to seeing an end to this. That's a positive slant. I wish more newscasters would follow. Have fun painting the she shed! That's exciting!
ReplyDeleteYay for sunshine and sweet friends who leave happy little pick me ups! Love your black and white bunnies and carrots - so cute!
ReplyDeleteHope you get lots of sunny days to get your shed painted. I've been busy outside working in my flowerbeds before it gets too hot to do much. It's an overwhelming task - lots of weeds and stuff that has to be cut down and dug out but one spot at a time! It will be fun to watch them transform. I'm glad to have projects to keep me busy. Feel for those living in apartments.
Hugs, Cecilia
Your living room is absolutely beautiful, Kris! It certainly belongs in a magazine. It's cold and raining here.

Yes, Kris the sun does help to make our homes look nice. I love how bright and cheery you house looks. How nice and thoughtful to receive the flowers to bring you happiness. I like your little touches of spring and easter in your house. Question? Is Buddy a dachshund? He is just an adorable dog. Have a nice weekend.
ReplyDeleteLove that shade of blue! In biblical times, parts of a certain snail was used to dye the threads used to make the tzitzit at the corners of the tallit or prayer shawl. It is very similar to what you have in your home. Enjoy your weekend. Ours will be a rainy one but warm. xoxo
ReplyDeleteYour room look so cheerful with the sun shining in. The bunnies and carrots are so cute. Your friend is precious for dropping off flowers. It is such a difficult time for lol who miss family and friends. One day at a time. So glad you can get out to paint your She shed. It is going to be fabulous. Xo
ReplyDeleteYour spring decorations are fantastic, Kris! I've been hoping to do a lot of work around the house during this lockdown, hasn't happened yet.

ReplyDeleteEverything looks beautiful Kris! So pleased to hear that you are having some sunshine to brighten your days, during this very difficult time. What a lovely kind friend you have - no wonder those pretty flowers brightened your day. Stay strong and safe dear friend, virtual hugs, Gilly x
ReplyDeleteOh Kris, what a wonderful surprise and friend to leave flowers for you. You must have had such a big smile.
ReplyDeleteLove the runner on your table, stunning! Your bunnies are cute
Woo Hoo, She Shed time!!
Cindy
I like the decorations. What a sweet surprise on your door step.
ReplyDeleteI hope you can get out and paint the shed.
It is snowing, raining and sleeting here right now! YUCK!
Carla
I love the blue pillows and curtains! That sun looks wonderful streaming in! Those flowers are a sweet gift! I hope you have weather that allows you to paint. It is supposed to rain here in Indiana. Nice Sunday however!
ReplyDeleteTake care friend.
I love the touches of blue.
ReplyDeleteI am staying sane by keeping busy.
Kris, I love all the fresh touches you've added to your home. You really have made this new cottage your own! Beautiful! It's a challenge right now to live life normally, but we all are trying. A good time to use our creativity. Take care, my friend! (Btw, my blog address has changed. Follow the link to my Blogger profile to find me (I dumped the domain name).
ReplyDeleteThe sunshine is great and it sounds like nice warm weather next week! Not seeing family is the hardest for me, too, but I know this too shall pass.
ReplyDeleteI have been following your blog for a couple years now & I usually never comment but I felt like maybe it was time to come out of the shadows. LOL!!! I have found so much inspiration on your pages. I just redid my living room & kitchen. We had a doorway between the kitchen & living room taken out to make it more open. Put in new flooring. Painted all the walls & ceiling & put in new trim. We did this all between Thanksgiving & Christmas. Any way, I just wanted to say that I looked to you for ideas about paint color & curtains. You are so very talented. Thank you for your blog. Stay safe & healthy!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kimberly for introducing yourself and letting me know about your re doing of your own home. That is a wonderful compliment to me that you love some of my decor that could inspire you to do things in your own home. I love this land called blogging where we can connect and find inspiration and others that like the same type of decor. You are the sweetest. Hope you are staying safe and well.
DeleteHugs,
Kris
Oh, what a beautiful bouquet from your friend! How sweet! Is there anything that lifts up our spirits more than fresh flowers, especially when they are a gift? Your cottage is just so charming, Kris. I love all the spring touches. Right now I'd love to curl up on that sofa and have a girl talk with you! Consider yourself virtually hugged, my friend. Nancy
ReplyDelete;Ove, Love all your Spring touches to the décor. Just what we all need now, is a bit of pretties and the "hope" that spring brings.
ReplyDeleteMuch rain here the last few days, but we never begrudge it.
Be safe & continued blessings wished for you
I hope you had a good weekend, Kris and that you guys made good progress on the shed. Brian and I got a ton of work done in the yard this weekend, and got the patio furniture out and set up, too. How sweet that a friend left you lovely flowers!
