So Far Behind & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #265
I am so far behind that I can’t seem to catch up on things. I have lots of photos and other things that I want to share here including details of my road trip to North Carolina. And I will get around to it soon, I swear! But for now I wanted to make sure you had a link party to join. So for today, this is all I’ve got…another woman’s behind clad in a thong (that was just to get your attention) and a link party! Enjoy and have a fabulous day!

Reminder: The Good Buy/Good-Bye Book-Periwinkle and Purple & Link Up On the Edge #285
The Pantone color of the year for 2022 is Very Peri…a shade of purple “whose courageous presence encourages personal inventiveness and creativity.” The color encompasses the qualities of blues while also possessing a violet-red undertone that displays “a spritely joyous attitude and dynamic presence.” Very Peri is a gorgeous color to transition from the cold winter months into the warmer spring days that lie ahead making it the perfect theme for March’s Good Buy/Good-Bye Book. But we don’t want to limit you to just one specific shade of purple, so any purple will do! We invite you to share your favorite Periwinkle and Purple pieces. What is The Good Buy/Good-Bye…

Songful Style | “Leather and Lace” by Stevie Nicks and Don Henley & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #264
I must apologize for not getting this post live yesterday as I said I would. I began my 900 mile drive back home from North Carolina before 6:00 a.m. on Monday and arrived home just before noon on Tuesday. I thought I would sit down and write it then, but after unpacking all of my things and getting back into the parenting routine at home I was just too darn tired. I will share more about my trip next week once I get myself a bit more organized. For now, let me share more inspiration for March’s Songful Style prompt.

I Made It to Tuckasegee & Link Up On the Edge #284
I completed my 900 mile drive to Becca’s house in Tuckasegee, North Carolina, where I will be spending the next few days. She recently purchased a homestead in the Bear Lake Reserve area of this tiny little Cherokee town, which she has craftily named The Bearfoot Hill Homestead. It’s basically a hippie haven situated off of a winding mountain road that would bring peace and serenity to any troubled soul. The photo above was taken in Becca’s back yard. Behind me in all directions is about 3,600 acres of woodland with only one neighbor in eyesight. What a wonderfully rejuvenating retreat this will be. I am so grateful for all…

Outfit Remix for Road Tripping & #SpreadTheKindness Link Up #263
Two weeks ago, I shared this cheerful pink sweater in my road tripping post…the road trip which I embark on today! By the time you are reading this, I will likely already be on the road en route from northern New York to the mountains of western North Carolina. A round trip of over 1,800 miles that I will traverse today and tomorrow, arriving at my destination in Tuckasegee, North Carolina, some time tomorrow evening. In that previous post, I had mentioned that this cozy turtleneck sweater would be making the trip with me. In fact, I am wearing the same road trip outfit that I said I would except…
