Thanks to One and All
After 1,050 posts, 8493 views, 2 followers, and 84 comments, I have decided to put Ink on the Page to rest. I want to thank you for joining me on my three year journey. This blog has held a special place in my heart and at times, held me together. It has allowed me to share my crazy thoughts, my jumbled feelings, my wacky sense of humor, my wonderful family, my precious puppies, and my various upsets with all of you. I love the written word and have truly enjoyed the road we've traveled together. Part of me will miss the daily adventure while the other part is ready to travel a different road and create new adventures.
Here are a few things I hope that you have taken with you from reading this blog:
1. The past cannot be changed.
2. Opinions don't define your reality.
3. Everyone's journey is different.
4. Things always get better with time.
5. Judgments are confessions of character.
6. Overthinking will lead to sadness.
7. Happiness is found within.
8. Positive thoughts create positive things.
9. Smiles are contagious.
10. Kindness is free.
11. You only fail if you quit.
12. What goes around, comes around.
Again, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for being part of this journey with me. That I touched even one life from my silly ramblings, I am both honored and humbled. I leave you with my heart on the table and wishes for the best life possible. Make every day count and take care of yourself.

The Moon and Star
I love this necklace by Origami Owl. It's absolutely beautiful and makes me believe that dreams really can come true. If you like it as well, go to their website. It's only available until the end of September. Dream away!

No Matter What
You may be going through a rough time but I can assure you that there are people out there whose lives are so much worse. I grow frustrated at times because this didn't happen or that isn't improving quickly enough or that my life did not turn out the way I pictured it but I have to tell you that I hear the stories of other's lives or listen to the news or read my Facebook feed and realize that I have a lot more than a lot of folks do. It's at the moment that I am reminded how truly blessed my life is and I become humbled and grateful for every breath I am given. When you look up, you have no other choice but to be thankful and hopeful. May today bring you peace in your struggles.

Aggravation!
Does this ever happen to you?
It has to be telemarketers.
My friends and family would never do this!
Correction.
Most of them wouldn't!
Happy Wednesday.

Mispronounciations
I mispronounce words all the time. In fact, I'm reading The Prince of Tides right now and there are many challenging words in it, some I've needed a dictionary to figure out. Never feel badly that you can pronounce something. Challenge yourself to keep reading and in turn, learning. I promise that you won't regret it.

A Serious Fam
Unbelievable!
This is such a wild and crazy and wonderful thing for someone to do.
What a fan that J.K. Rowling has!

Queen of Sass
"Oh wait, it's Saturday," she says with a palm thump to her head.
"I have 48 hours to figure that out!"
Have a great weekend!
