Life Lately…

September 6, 2018 By Elizabeth@ Pine Cones and Acorns 3 Comments

Good morning! I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend. I know I did because I spent it in one of my favorite places, Maine. I decided before I left that for a week of vacation that I would not take my computer and I was not going to post to any social media. It was heaven to escape life for a few days and just enjoy whatever came my way. We hiked and sat by the pool and listened to music and read and soaked up the sun. Then we walked into Bar Harbor and ate, lobsters for my husband and burgers for me,  drank and made new friends. After which we went to bed early, slept in if we wanted or got up with the sun to start the whole thing over again. No tv, no computer, no facebook, twitter or email,  it was heaven and a wonderful reminder that life is good and need not be all about social media. Now I am home and it is back to yoga, work, emails, decluttering and packing. 

What have you been up to? Whatever it is I hope you have been relaxing and enjoying life. 

Have a great day!

    Your top photo looks like a painting…maybe Monet?
    An Internet break is a good idea.

I fear that two of them are not going to make it because I do not see anything but one just popped above the ground! It is about 3/4" and I cannot wait to watch it grow over the next few years. #amaturegardner #quote #quoteoftheday #serinahernandez #gardeningquote
