I think I had gotten so used to feeling unsettled and expecting a crisis around every corner that it was nice to have a revelation that things were beginning to settle down and some peace was restored. I'm going to do what I can (definitely meditation) to keep that feeling going. And thank you for the good wishes for next week; I'm in the process of filling out ~75 pages of paperwork for my father's estate before I go to the bank next week, so I'll take the wind at my back for that meeting! Wishing you a wonderful weekend, Becky!Bonnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11608328439375705263noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-66165465677312986872018-03-16T12:59:49.615-04:002018-03-16T12:59:49.615-04:00oh those memories all there for you to enjoy.

I think my favorites are the owls. I have never seen all these stuffed Steiff animals before, only bears. Thanks for sharing. It's wonderful to have a collection that brings such positive emotions. As to your feelings of increasing calm and peace, I am so happy for you! Perhaps through meditation and reflection you can learn to make it a more common occurrence. You have had a huge amount of chaos in your life lately. Hopefully you are moving into a less frenetic phase. Happy Friday and may the wind be always at your back whatever happens this next week.becksterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02147945810663254093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-54919790625901013822018-03-16T10:14:33.707-04:002018-03-16T10:14:33.707-04:00Hearing that you have peace in your life is the be...Hearing that you have peace in your life is the best news in this post. I concur that I have seen a friends pet rabbit reclining, back legs back, quietly resting and at ease. Your collection is charming. I hope the feeling of calm and peace stays with you as you deserve some time to yourself after a long time of angst and worry. xomargenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00203284423648703855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5141954207305878743.post-91637353848119369252018-03-16T09:34:54.717-04:002018-03-16T09:34:54.717-04:00Oh, I'm so happy to hear that your "ducks...Oh, I'm so happy to hear that your "ducks" are lining up!!

When the kids were little, Heidi had a bunny and I have seen that bunny reclining like that more than once. I don't know if they do in the wild, but Heidi's bun reclined thus next to her often. Perhaps it is the pose of entire trust, Heidi and her bunny were the best of friends. The bunny would even be excited when she got home from school! <br /><br />I am also incredibly fascinated by your salt cellar collection and that gorgeous knife rest! Perhaps there will be an upcoming post on your collection!<br /><br />Here is to a weekend to enjoying the feeling of your ducks in a row and I hope that feeling continues and grows!

XO I love your Steiff animal collection -- and especially the little bears. (I've always had a thing for little bears.) I never had anything as precious as Steiff animals when I was a child, and, in fact, had never even heard of them -- until my mother-in-law showed me her own collection when Tom and I were first married. It's lovely that you have a co-mingled collection - yours and your mom's - which makes it all the more precious and special.

I have to say, thought, that my favorite part of this post is when you say that you feel like you have peace in your life - hooray for that feeling, I hope it's here to stay.Carolehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09438414339444169303noreply@blogger.com
