I won! Nothin’ kicks a writing slump to the curb, like getting a custom sign in the mail! Whoot!

When Emily, from Chocolate Blue, asked what initial and kid’s name I wanted for my wall sign…I blushed.

I was kinda-sorta thinking about getting a sign with my blog name. How ’bout putting on a big J. Cause my first initial is J and so is Just a Blink’s.

I stammered on about how I had 4 kids so it would be hard to choose which one to get done. But, really I fooled no one about just plain wanting something for myself!

I knew seeing this handmade, Just a Blink sign would inspire me, every time I looked in its direction. My new wall sign makes me think about all the reasons I blog.

I love to:

• write
• be in this little slice of blogdom I call home
• forgive myself for misplacing commas half of the time, at best
• record and remember the moments that blink by
• dream of my future just for the sake of dreaming
• think beyond myself
• hear from my readers

Plus, Chocolate Blue threw in two super cute handmade notecards. Cupcakes!

Sweet!

You’ll be hearing from me tomorrow,

Shamrock ribbon in a jar

Sideboard cleaned up for March

During my last thrifting trip I picked up a framed shadow box with a silver clip inside. I think it was for a wedding photo or something. I added in a shamrock ceramic ornament.

I propped a vintage St. Pats postcard up on a black scalloped pedestal candle holder.

May joy and peace surround you

Contentment latch your doors

And happiness be with you now

And bless you evermore

Love,

Jess
