Today started like any other day, the alarm clock went off, I got out of bed, grabbed a cup of coffee and headed to the office to get some work done. Life has been so chaotic with the purchase of our first house, working two jobs, putting the house together, and now the transition of leaving DermStore and solely working from home.There isn't a day where I do not feel blessed to live the life that I do. I have an amazing husband, beautiful family and friends who love me, a baby niece or nephew on the way, an astonishing house that I truly only dreamed about living in, a job that pays wells and allows me the flexibility to be do things that a normal 9-5 job wouldn't. You could say, life couldn't get better.
Today Josh had the day off for Presidents Day. Although I still had to work (Bummer!), I broke away from the computer and pulled Josh with me for a walk. I was wanting to get a breath of fresh air and walk around the plain block that I drive all the time. I just wanted to get the blood flowing and burn a few calories in the process. Since we have moved in, we haven't been able to really explore the neighborhood or our surroundings. Little did I know that our walk today was going to open that opportunity for us.
We stumbled upon what could be the perfect little bike ride, beautiful views, and the strong Sacramento River. We are literally 1 street over from the river. Our neighborhood is full of beautiful cherry blossom trees, and the sound of nothing but the birds chirping and the leaves whistling as the breeze gently blows through them.
All of these incredible things just make me feel more blessed, and thankful that on days like these, I can take off on foot and enjoy nature as God intended. How can I not smile after this?
