I stopped at a thrift store yesterday and found this framed photo of someone's beloved cat. For a moment I wondered about the person who took the picture, the cat who was deeply loved, and the life they shared together. Time has a way of changing everything. Homes are emptied, people move, loved ones pass away, and the things that once meant the world to us quietly find their way onto thrift store shelves.

One day, every one of us will simply become a story someone else tells... or a photograph someone wonders about. That's not depressing to me. It reminds me to love harder, laugh louder, take more pictures, and fill this little chapter of my life with as much meaning as I can. Life lives. Seasons change. And every ending makes room for another beginning. Even my own life is not immune from this. ❤️🐈

This next chapter of my life is about discovering who I am without managing, fixing, hoping or enabling another grown adults life. The time has come to figure out who Sharon is. I'm simultaneously terrified and excited and also sad.

Woo Hoo!!! And just like that I got my Charlie gokey comment. I was wondering when I was going to get one. I feel like I made it. Have you got a Charlie gokey comment yet they're all the same. 😂

There is just something magical about the sound of a vintage CorningWare Blue Cornflower percolator bubbling away on the stove. ☕💙 Add a beautiful blue pedestal mug that matches, and coffee becomes a whole experience instead of just a drink. Sometimes the old ways really are the best ways. 💙✨

There comes a moment when you wake up, get out of bed, and quietly decide... this isn't the life I'm living anymore. And your whole life begins to change.

This barn wasn't cleaned in a morning, and it won't be transformed in a week. I'm now a one-woman band, so I'll tackle it one corner, one trash can, one donation pile, one recycling trip, and one organized space at a time. Every bucket of dirt swept up, every load hauled away, and every decision made is another step toward the life I'm creating.

I'm not rushing anymore. I'm rebuilding.

Sometimes a phoenix doesn't rise in a single dramatic moment. Sometimes it rises one ordinary day at a time, covered in dust, wearing work boots, and refusing to quit.

This is just the beginning. 🐘🔥💚

📦✨ $2 Mystery Boxes... Treasure or Total Junk?! 🤯📦✨

Disney Colorforms Edition! 🐭🦁
I think I've found my new favorite series... "What's in the Box?" 📦😂
At the thrift store, these Disney Colorforms boxes were taped shut, so there was no way to know if I was buying complete sets... or a box full of disappointment. 😅

My son loves fishing. Today is day two of trying to catch trout and he actually caught three or could have been four I can't remember. I've been sober since 2012 but my son is new to sobriety and fishing helps keep him grounded and centered.

Here's a picture of his rainbow trout that he fried up for lunch it was delicious trout tastes buttery and smooth and not fishy and reminds me more of potato in taste than fish it's kind of crazy never had it before.

🎥 🚂 Toy Story Monopoly Chaos! 🤠🎲 Will It Be Complete... or a Total Disaster? 👀

Today we're opening up a Toy Story Monopoly game, and let me tell you... it looks like a toy tornado hit this box! 😂🤯
To me, this is the fun part. Digging through the chaos, matching every piece, hunting for missing tokens, and finding out if it's complete is like solving a puzzle. 🧩✨
If this kind of sorting makes your heart happy, then you're definitely my kind of people. 😄 And if you think this box is crazy... just wait until I pan the camera and show you the shelves packed with Monopolies, Clues, and hundreds of other board games waiting for their turn!
Every box has a story... let's see what this one has to say. 🎲❤️

A week ago, I made a decision.

I decided to get out of bed and start acting like my life was going to turn out exactly the way it was supposed to.

Not because everything was fixed... But because I finally believed it would be.

Just look at these analytics. Last 28 days: 146,417 views. Last 7 days: 132,443 views.

That means in just one week of showing up with intention, I came within 13,974 views of my entire previous 28 days.

Sometimes the biggest shift isn't the algorithm.
It's your mindset.

When I stopped waiting for my life to begin and started living as if the future was already unfolding in my favor, everything changed. This is only the beginning.

Thank you to every single one of you who watches, comments, shares, and cheers me on. You have no idea how much it means. ❤️✌️

I have a big life announcement coming soon! Stay tuned.
