“Reflect upon your present blessings — of which every man has many — not on your past misfortunes, of which all men have some.”
~ Charles Dickens
1.New Journal Challenge!
It’s been a while since I ran a journal and oracle card challenge, so I’ve decided to cook another one up for you. It’s fabulous, it’s free, and there will be more details here on the blog on Friday so stay tuned!
2. New Swimmers!

I needed new swimwear for my upcoming trip. Usually this is not the kind of shopping I look forward to. But… The very first place I went into, the very first swimmers I tried on – perfect fit! Don’t you love it when that happens? 🙂
3. Money In My Pocket!

When I was looking for a bag to keep all my journals and crystals in when I go travelling I came upon a pencil-case I though I’d lost years ago. When I opened it up there was $350 cash. Bonus! Now I have extra spending money.
4. Our House Sitter Brought His Dog to Stay!

I was worried about leaving Harry Dog on his own for the first time without Bert to keep him company. But our wonderful house sitter has brought his gorgeous Black Labrador with him and she is the sweetest girl, so now Harry has a friend and he won’t be lonely. Such a win!
5. Holidays!

Holidays? Yep. They start today. Hooray!!! By the time you read this I’ll be on my way to the airport! Two weeks in Vietnam and then two weeks in the Philippines.So excited!!! I’ll keep you posted on all the fun and goodness. 🙂
Biggest hugs and love to you, Nicole <3 xx

Reflecting on our blessings helps in so many ways to keep a positive mindset which can make all the difference in a day.
Wow this does sound like a great week! I hope you have a great time on your holiday!!! 🙂
Bon voyage !
Gratitude is everything. What a nice post! I loved the pictures, too, especially the “blessings” stone at the top.
Love when you find money you didn’t know you had! Enjoyed this post😊❤️️
Always good to recount the good things! Your journal is so bright and lovely, mine is so messy and I always scrawl in a black pen. I am going to try to use different colours now, inspired by your pretty pink! Also, swimwear that fits is a major confidence boost 🙂 I wish you a great week. I really enjoyed this post, it was like a little bit of sunshine in the bloggosphere.
It’s always good finding money in the best of times too lol. Have a great time! Take lots of pics to share 🙂
Have a fantastic time
Looking forward to enjoying a virtual holiday has I read of all your adventures and experiences XX
I hope you have a wonderful trip! It’s so great when you find money that you didn’t know you had. It’s like free money, it’s a present 🙂
Have a lovely holiday Nicole 💜
