Life at a "Swell's" pace

Hello.

Here are five things this week.

1. These Flowers.

Been trying to keep more fresh flowers inside our house. I also have been pressing the flowers once their time is spent. I would like to do something with them eventually, but for right now having fresh flowers and pressed flowers are definitely a plus.

2. This Souvenir.

We have a Geocache in front of our house and with that we are pretty active Geocachers. Recently we won a giveaway for a trackable with Jack Links. We are super excited to activate it and add it to our own Geocache.

3. This Box.

Always excited to receive my monthly beauty box from Kinder Beauty. Absolutely loving everything in July's box. You can get on the list for August here.

4. This Dinner.

Another experiment via Fire to Fork.

5. This Cutie.

Quappy duck is getting bigger and more curious. Love how she looks up at us when she's spending time in front of her mirror. She's been a cool, little ducky to watch grow. We also retired her little transport box this week, too. She's a big girl now with her own space and room to run around and she seems to like it.

Great updates on her can be seen on my Instagram page.

Positive affirmations this week:

Don't ever let other people take away your worth. Allow yourself to feel like you deserve just as good of treatment as anyone else. You are enough, no matter what others try to convince you of. You can do this!

Have a nice weekend.

Hello.

Here are five things this week.

1. This Art.

Street art in and around Corvallis, Oregon, really makes some of the city streets pop with color and this one is no exception.

2. This Kitty.

Always in the sun and near me.

3. This Ducky.

Sweet, little Quappy duck. She's growing and very curious.

4. This View.

These were the first images of the James Webb Space Telescope this week. No matter how many times I feel I can not be impressed by space images, I continue to be impressed. This image is of emerging stellar nurseries and individual stars in the Carina Nebula that were previously obscured. You can see more images like this, and read about the James Webb Telescope here.
