We’re deep into moving boxes this week, which is why I have been quiet on here and on my Social Media. In spite of the crazy week we’re having, I didn’t want to miss sharing 5 things that are bringing me joy this week because I truly am feeling joyous! So here they are:

a beautiful weekend spent outside. The weather these last few days has been just… perfect. We explored a few new parks and visited some of our favorites in the Tampa Bay area. Being in nature brought me so much joy — it really is my happy place (along with the beach)! Really looking forward to doing this more and as often as possible as we’re getting away from the sweltering heat.
taking inventory and decluttering. Usually, this is something that we do at the beginning of the year, but for those of us moving, well, it occurs more often. It’s amazing how many things we hold on to with the thought of “I might need this”, only to have it forgotten in some corner for eternity (or until we have to move). Reevaluating our possessions is a good feeling, and decluttering sure brings joy!
moving on. From toxic people, toxic places, and situations. We all know the feeling, this is not just joy — it’s bliss!
cooler nights! It’s no secret that I don’t like the cold (nor the sweltering heat for that matter), but the slight chill in the air in the evening and at night sure brings joy!
