Let’s Talk more about Cocktail HOurs: A brief HIstory

While we are speaking of cocktail hours on the blog, I never knew where they originated from and I was always curious.

Cocktail Hours: The New Happy Time

Cocktail Hours: The New Happy Time

I was once told a motivating story about a man who I was once told a motivating story about a man who showed up for his first marathon practice. all the other people in the class had the latest running shoes, the fanciest GPS watches, + the most expensive hydration backpacks. he came with his tattered college shirt, old tennis shoes, + zero equipment. at the end of the first mile, he was outpacing them by an embarrassing amount. and the woman with the watch + brand new shoes was in dead last. all the lady had focused on was the cool gadgets, not the hard work a marathon would take.

also, it was me. that lady was me. #deadlast #wannaberunner

ps. thanks to @rach_runs_rva for the advice on the new watch. 🤣 and @lren55 for the new shoes.

it took a full weekend on the couch, but my first it took a full weekend on the couch, but my first fall knitting project is complete; winter dream tea lattes; five more days to break; connections only God could have orchestrated; seeking joy in spite of circumstances; november babies #hscsmallmagic2020
this is the monday-est wednesday ever, but I’m t this is the monday-est wednesday ever, but I’m trying to find the ✨small magic✨ in everything around me: flowy dresses, red cups this morning, headbands on dirty hair days, cold hands warmed by fleece, + the perfect jam coming on the radio as you’re headed home.

please share your #hscsmallmagic2020 moments with me today! I couldn’t always use more!
no matter if you are feeling joy or uncertainty to no matter if you are feeling joy or uncertainty today, just do the next right thing. do it with love + mercy, extending grace, for we do not know what someone has walked through in their life. today, I’m leaving social media + doing the next right thing for my family- laundry, sweeping the kitchen floor, vacuuming Mabel’s dust bunnies from the corner. I’m resting, planning for sunday, + placing my trust in the God numbered the stars and knows them by name.

go hug your family, plan your meals for next week, pull out the thanksgiving recipes from last year, + remember how important the work is that you do within the four walls of your home.

Jesus, we trust in You.

these last couple weeks of october were rough. as these last couple weeks of october were rough. as I sought joy in my life, the enemy was quick to pounce, reminding me of all the things that ailed me- illness, political upheaval, friends I can’t see, gossip, tension, anxieties at work. and for those few days I was caught up in it, ever forgetful of what He was yearning to tell me. joy is not found in my circumstances, but in Him.

I’m going into the new month with gratitude + expectancy. I love this month + the coziness it affords us. and I’m so grateful I still have my eye on the prize. He is working in me. I don’t know what that means for me or this little piece of the internet that I inhabit. but I do know change is brewing slowly. happy all saints day to you all. 💛
