It may be Monday but I still have the Sunday-morning-coffee-by-the-campfire-on-the-river state of mind.
My mom gifted me this Swig mug and I love how it kept the temp hot until the last, well, swig. 😆
The company, founded by Tracee Mathes (@mzswig on Instagram) in 2017, offers premium drinkware with women in mind. It’s a Swig Life™ for me.
Happy Mugshot Monday from Jim Hobbs at the Sloane Square Gallery.
If you haven’t visited yet, head to the West 14th Street Antiques District in Huntington, WV for an amazing experience.
Jim is the decorator and designer while his partner, Jamie Sloane, is the artist. The gallery is a representation of the best of both their talents.
Jim and Jamie want everyone to come into the gallery and feel welcome and comfortable. They want to encourage people to be creative.
Cheers!
When the day ahead holds challenges, a cup of courage provides a little fortitude.
Happy Mugshot Monday and write on, Diane.
Cheers!

It’s Monday and what I consider the first day of the week. So what better way to start it? With first lines of literature.
A thank you to my daughter for this thoughtful gift from Philosopher’s Guild.
Answers to these and some of the other first lines are below.

Good Monday morning!
My dear neighbor and friend gave me this beautiful mug and when I drink from it, I think of her kindness.
May you be blessed with a cup full of love today.
