Things I Savor in Life ~ Part 2
Whew… I have finished my first week as a paralegal supervisor and it was a busy week. I am enjoying it so far. I sure hope that this continues. In Wednesday’s post, I talked about how I was missing the arts. I talked about how I am missing the symphony during my lunch breaks, my piano lessons, and my daughter’s violin lessons. I also asked if any of you have any elegant activities which lead me to my 2016 post called “Things I Savor”.
It’s been four years since I wrote that post and some things have changed and some things have not. I wanted to update my list if you guys don’t mind…..

1) I still enjoy fresh flowers every day and all day. That has not changed and if I can help it never will!
2) Do I still enjoy a new bag…. oh yes! Right not I am still loving my Tory Burch tote with my beautiful blue floral Coach scarf! The combination together is lovely!
3) I am still loving my daughter’s giggle. Although, it is no longer a giggle but a large laugh. It has changed in the last few years.
4) Still loving my roasted chicken and red potatoes dish. But I am also loving my salmon with brown rice and sauteed spinach. That has become a new weekly favorite!
5) Oh yes, still enjoying the french bread but we are trying different variations of it. We recently found the Cheesecake Factory’s brown wheat bread at Kroger! Game changer!
6) Polished nails? Absolutely! I am still going to the nail salon. I actually started going back in February. I went a year without going. It was hard but worth it in the end.
7) Am I still wearing kitten heels? OMG! Yes! My Ann Taylor shoes are the perfect kitten heel. Women stop me everywhere about those shoes and they are now 50% off! I just got the second print for $44!

8) Well in my previous post, I was still taking piano lessons and I really miss that. My boutique has taken the place of those activities. I adore my boutique and I am so excited about some of the new dress arrivals coming soon!
9) Am I still wearing floral perfumes? Oh yes, my most recent love is the Philosophy jasmine scent. It is beautiful!
10) My husband’s haircut….. I still like it. But I am enjoying my new hairstyle! I feel like my appearance has more sophistication to it. I do love it!
11) It has changed from cooked salted broccoli to salted brussel sprouts. Yum!
12) I will always love Louis Vuitton but my heart has begun to venture to other designers and non-designers. I am learning to buy what I love.
13) In my previous post this was a silk scarf. I still love them of course but for this season I have been enjoying my plush pink cardigans.
14) 2 Chronicles 20:12
15) Pearl bracelets
16) Blue and white grandmillennial prints (toile)
17) Attending events or having dinner with friends
18) Beautiful bed linens
19) Psalm 37:1

21) Chris Botti’s “It never entered my mind”.
22) My morning bubble baths
23) The movie “Three Coins in a Fountain”. The scenery and wardrobe are a dream to me and I love the storyline.
Well, I think that is enough for now. This list could get really long. My last list had about 40 items. That was too many. I hope you all enjoyed this post and share below some of the things that you savor in life right now. I just realized that I am not reading anything (except for my Bible) right now. I need to find a good novel to read. Until then enjoy your Mother’s Day weekend and don’t forget today is the last day of the boutique’s sale. Use code MTDY25 to get 25% off of your purchase!

Amen and amen Mrs Shockley on 2 Chronicles 20:12 & Psalms 37:1??
I recently gave up my stilettos. I still like them but I’m shifting and changing and kitten heels are just too precious. They suit where I am on life right now. I’ll always love my wedges and espadrilles?
I haven’t seen 3 Coins in the Fountain in such a long time. I’ll have to revisit it now. Fresh flowers is a major yes. My landlord and his wife bought me a intresting boutique just a few days ago that contained roses, carnations, daisy and gerberas. It’s so pretty, very unexpected blend that I wouldn’t put together. Somehow it worked. It’s so cute. That crystal vase on your living room table was lovely. I might need something like that. Chris Botti…say no more? have a great weekend Mrs Shockley. I’ll be having a counseling session with the ministers tomorrow so I’m looking forward to that??
I am with you on the stilettos! I can’t do it anymore! They are too high and the heel is never thick enough. I need more support. That was so nice of your landlord to bring you a bouquet. I love pink carnations. They are so underrated!
That crystal vase I found at an antique store for under $20! I couldn’t believe it. And I love Chris Botti. I would love to see him at a live concert. I hope your session goes great and talk to you soon!
