Ahhhh I am feeling good right now. I have been sooo down in the dumps for the past few weeks. I am struggling to pull myself out.
Today when I came home from work I found a clean house, lawn mowed, and supper in the oven. My summer babysitter Abby rocks. Totally bummed she is moving. : (
She helped Hailey and Liz (Liz is Abby’s sister who happens to be one of Hailey’s best friends) have a lemonade stand today. The girls made about $25 bucks!!

After dinner (which Hailey and I actually sat at the kitchen table to eat instead of the TV which unfortunately has been the norm the past few weeks) I whipped up a batch of these awesome muffins. They have become a staple in our house. I follow this recipe but use muffin tins and also add chocolate chips! They are healthy, so filling, Hailey LOVES them, and they freeze really well.

Then I went outside and checked on my plants, flowers, and garden. Thankfully they were all looking pretty good considering I have been neglecting them lately.

tomatoes!
garden – please excuse my weeds!
I took a few pictures and now am snuggling on the couch with Hailey while typing this up.
I am hoping this happier feeling continues tomorrow. I am going to go into tomorrow with the attitude of happiess and try not to focus on how awful the last few weeks have been. No sense dwelling in what was – focus on moving forward!
