Enjoy your night Maria!! 😊
No gym for me this week but that hasn’t stopped me from continuing to get a work out. While checking out the treestands to see if any needed to be fixed up for this season, my dad and I came to a stop finding this big beech tree across the trail. There’s no shortage of work to be done. The best exercises are done outside! 🙌🏻
I can imagine it from your great description! The jams I make are sugar free although sometimes I sweeten them with a monk fruit sweetener.
These will be enjoyed as a fresh treat. Usually I like to make jam in attempt to enjoy the berries over a longer period of time but nothing quite tastes like fresh especially wild!
Wow! Elderberries while on a hike! That sounds nice. How do they taste? I have yet to try them but I’d really like to get some elderberries to make an all natural syrup to boost immunity.

While on the hunt to find mushrooms, I was pleasantly surprised to spot these beautiful blackberries!! I picked all the ripe ones I could see and will surely be going back in a few days in anticipation that the others will be ready. Then going down the trail I seen a hawk with its magnificent wings fanned out after taking off from a tree.
When you take the time to fully embrace your surroundings and not be in a rush, it’s amazing the beauty you will notice.
I am going become a Dad! What an incredible feeling 💜
We only had one test remaining. She said she was experiencing period pain and that it would likely yield another negative result. So, I already fell asleep when she woke me up to ask if I could help her read the test. I wasn't fully awake yet so my mind wasn't processing much. I got out of bed to look at the test results, seeing two lines with one being very faint. That still counts as positive result. Not wanting to get my hopes too high, we drove to Walgreens at 2am and purchased more tests. Did we take enough tests? 😂 All of them came back positive. Tears of joy. I'm going to become a Dad! What an incredible feeling it is.
I listened to this podcast recently. Fiat foods really are killing us. Woman with irregular periods this is worth a listen.

Bringing in the reinforcements to prepare for hunting season!! Also harvested some mullein to make all the things! 😎
Oh I remember those back to school jitters! Great message. I hope they do this and others follow spreading kindness as well. I hope your kids are adjusting well. 😊
Awe!! I used to watch Wheel of Fortune with my grandma too. Treasure these sweet moments while you still have her! ❤️
Scored some pigs ears while foraging today!! I once used to buy pigs ears as a treat for my dog and now here I am finding pigs ears for humans lol 🤣
I managed to get a nice little haul of chanterelles this afternoon mushroom foraging. Some were in last years spots but the majority in new places I discovered!! 🍄🟫 #foraging
The sweetest answer ever!
Speaking from experience, if you can manage to get through the pain after surgery without taking pain killers, you will be much further ahead. I know it absolutely sucks and the pain is on a totally different level but if you can keep your mindset stronger than your pain, you will heal so much faster. Do the daily exercises even through the agonizing pain. You’ve got this! 💪😊
GA ☀️
I attended a wonderful church service this morning. It’s a small little country church with a big welcome.
Today’s message pertained to whether you are a disciple or a fan. Are you being a disciple sharing God’s word and lending a hand or ear and playing a key role? Or instead do you lean more towards being a fan and watching from a distance?
The pastor made it relatable to baseball; the players vs the fans. He even got into character playing a baseball cap and jersey on himself throughout the service. He’s a Detroit Tigers fan. He made a comment that he will even wear the jersey to a Toronto Bluejays game and some people will hate upon him. He said it’s sometimes like that when sharing your faith.
A few hymns we sung together touched on how God will make a way even when you feel like it’s impossible no matter what you’re facing. I had tears in my eyes at times.
I always leave church feeling uplifted and renewed. This coming week maybe we could all be a little kinder and be a key player spreading the word of God and being the light for some whether they are familiar faces or strangers. 💕
I love back up cameras!!
Trading the city life for the country life for a relaxing vacay!!
I’d trade the city life to live this way in a heartbeat!
A different summer.
A different way.
But where there is a will, there’s a way!!
I managed to make a small batch of sugar free blueberry jam to mainly gift to ones dear to my heart!
