Safari tour…

Ever since grabbing this outfit from this month’s round of Collabor88 it’s been at the back of my mind to do some kind of safari scene.  There is something I love about doing pictures of nature with animals.  Perhaps its the wild calling me?

Safari 15

I think it would be absolutely cool to be so close up to the animals this way.   Actually the idea of being out in a vast open space with my camera and binoculars on hand to capture the animals in their natural habitat really does appeal to me.  The last time I was around animals of this type was on a trip to Disney’s Animal Kingdom about two years ago and I got some wonderful shots of lions, giraffes, gators and some other animals.  If only I could find them.

Well this is the end of our adventure until next time.

Lesson 40

On By AlexaIn Events, Home6 Comments

Snapshot_016

I used to love visiting small bookstores that were cozy, intimate and with an atmosphere of being somewhat quaint.  You could say it was something I indulged in frequently, because it was a place that I found tremendously relaxing and could spend hours just reading in a softly lit corner somewhere.  Unfortunately, it is hard to find any of these types of bookstores around anymore.  At least not where I live.   The only time I get to indulge in a setting like this is when I go visit  a friend of mine that lives in one of the Carolina states.   She has a small sun room that has bookshelves built in and large windows.  I just love sitting there with the sun streaming in and reading a book.

I think her sun room is calling my name.

Lesson 40: Indulge

What are some ways to really indulge? How about languishing extra long in bed on a rainy Sunday morning; skipping the nonfat, no-carb cookie and treating yourself to a hot fudge sundae; buying yourself flowers and sprinkling some of the petals on your bed and pillow; bringing your favorite novel and a cool drink with you into the bathtub so you can luxuriate in the soothing water; getting lost for hours window-shopping or browsing through a bookstore; and planning a day that’s all about you.

These are examples of healthy indulgence. Discipline and structure are essential components for creating the best year of your life, but they need to be balanced with moments of luxury. This is your week to indulge!

Your Self-Love Assignment

Imagine that your favorite person in the whole world is coming to visit you this week. This person has been working hard and is looking forward to some serious relaxation time. Imagine that the two of you have the same tastes, and it’s your job to plan at least three things you can do to ensure that your friend gets the most out of your time together. Write down three indulgent activities that you would like to share with your friend.

Now read over your list, because this is your self-love assignment for the week. Choose at least two of these activities and indulge yourself!

 Self-Love Points Earned

Give yourself 100 points for every healthy act of indulgence.

To help you prepare…

V1

Sometimes you make the perfect plans for something, and hope that everything goes well and then nothing goes the way you expect.  That’s been my afternoon and so what do you do?  Improvise.

This would be the equivalent of my date not showing up after I went to all the trouble of preparing a “heart”y meal of pizza and icing the beer for him and the double chocolate ones for me.  

Aphrodite Shops has been one of my favorite groups for a while now and I’m now honored to be blogging their items.   I’m not disappointed with these heart shape place mats that rezz a feast if you’re looking for something sweet and enjoyable to share with your loved one on Valentines Day.

V2

I could have gone for a much more fancier meal, which are included in the place mat.  Though you can’t go wrong with pizza and beer either.    I settled down to watch a movie all the while talking on the phone enjoying the red bouquet of roses with the delectable chocolates and cookies from this gift tray, other wonderful Valentine treats from Aphrodite. Watching this cutie pie in this movie more than made up for all the issues I had today.

May your Valentines be special.
