Everyday Images ~ July 16, 2026

Hi!  Hope you are making it through the week okay. I am linking up today with Kym for Everyday Images.  Sharing away ....

 Layers

Lots of layers to share...First, I love layers of small bracelets.

Layers of my daughter's art work never ceases to impress me.

This finished piece was on display for a year at our airport.

Here she is teaching some women a painting class.

So many layers are in personalities and my goodness, there are so many layers in grief.

Layers of flowers/plants are so delicate and beautiful.

When it comes to packing in different climates, layers is key and I am implementing this! Even though in my day-to-day life I am hot quite a bit, I always have a sweater for layers if I need it. Oh, and a raincoat :).

Current season (quarterly)

The season of summer usually consists of once a week either being at my pool or my sister's pool.

Milestone

This months wraps up 5 years at my current job.  I am so thankful for a co-worker who keeps me young!

Getting ready

This is my spot for getting ready each day.  I have a great built in storage cabinet and it holds all my bathroom/getting ready essentials, including this amazing organizer container for my makeup!

Wings

Before I get to beloved butterflies, I also think of airplane wings because I have always loved flying. This is attributed to my love of travel, studying aviation in college and going into the field of travel as a profession. 

From the world wide web: "Butterflies universally symbolize profound transformation, hope, and the journey of the soul. Their remarkable life cycle—from crawling caterpillar to chrysalis, and finally to a winged creature—serves as a powerful metaphor for personal growth, rebirth, and emerging from life's challenges with newfound freedom and beauty."

From my most recent trip to Louisville:

Jenn gave me this cute bag!

My co-worker gave me this as a housewarming gift:

Entrance

This is a picture from the entrance to my back door where I enter 95% of the time.

Young

This is a picture taken of some of my greats a few weeks ago.  I love seeing their shadows here, but also love seeing smiles on their faces.  It just lights up my day!

And wrapping this post up with a young picture of yours truly :).  I was around 3 years old here I think.

Have a great day!
