Frustrated.

Frustrated. That is how I would describe me right at this moment. Not quite discouraged, just frustrated.



frus·trat·edAdjective/ˈfrəsˌtrātid/


1. Feeling or expressing distress and annoyance, esp. because of inability to change or achieve something.


Yup, that pretty much describes it.


Frustrated.
But not defeated.
I cannot change the outcome, but I can change how I go about things.


Rather than be too transparent and bring you down...I'll share some photos from last week and the weekend...the cell phone edition!


sting rays at the zoo

cotton candy - my personal favorite!

Sunday bike ride 

flowers from my man
And one new token to celebrate one of my favorite children's books "Guess How Much I Love You?" It was a standard read in this house for a very long time. I think this token would make a great back to school gift for a child off to a new school, school for the first time, or maybe even starting college!


What do you think?

    I'm frustrated and thiiiiiis close to defeat. Today has smooshed me. (Is smooshed a word? Because I certainly feel smooshy.)

    But the photos are lovely. :-)

    I am down but I am not out is a saying that comes to mind and one that certainly resonates with me. Having made some very BIG life changes in the past few years, frustration has been evident and real...even today as I type this comment. Still, though down for the moment, I too look at the beauty around me and find within it al the strength to rally on to victory!!

    So I just subscribed to your blog... and the word that I needed to type to verify I wanted to subscribe was pained... lol - I just found that to be very humorous... not frustrated.. just pained :D

    Hope your day gets much better and you are able to see the beauty that God has brought into your life and translate that into the Jewelry that is in your soul. And guess what you get to pound stuff.... if I get frustrated... I don't get to pound things... if I did my computer would be toast :D That would be a sight to see <3
