I've spent most of my Sunday on the sofa trying to recover from a wretched cough/cold thing that's been hanging on for several days.
I don't know about you, but I always feel guilty when I'm not doing something. After all, there's so much to be done!
Even as I lay here feeling week and sick, I'm mentally beating myself up because the house is messy, or I didn't get to the grocery store, etc.
Why can't I ever give myself the peace of having permission to just...rest?
Maybe a holdover from being married to someone who always told me I wasn't doing or being "enough".... ever?
I don't know, but whatever the source, I truly need to work on this! Back me up friends-it really is okay to rest when you know you need to, right?
Thank you.
That said.....I've shared some of the beautiful images of Colorado Fall outdoors {and there's more to come} but today I'm going to share a few of the images I've snapped recently of some of my favorite indoor Autumn lovelies.

{A piece of my daughter's sweater from when she was a toddler (she's now 16), velvet and silk flowers and leaves, and vintage pearl beads have become a one-of-a-kind necklace for her. From mom, with love}
{Red pears-juicy, sweet and beautiful. A favorite Fall treat}
{An acorn-type seed, brought home from our trip to California. A tiny work of art}
{Another Fall treat-especially when you're not feeling well!}
{Currier & Ives Autumn tray}
{My dream house-smile}
{A favorite Fall plate-a gift from a friend}
This year, maybe more than other years, I feel compelled to capture and hold onto, the beauty of my favorite season before it is trampled by the world's stampede toward Christmas!
I am thankful for this season and this day (sick or not) and thankful for you being here, friends.
