My closet is magic because I go through it alot and discard items I no longer wear, (maybe my size changes🤪) and it never seems to empty!

I am starting to believe that there are little fairies in there making new clothing as I take them out! (Maybe just me bringing in more I purchased🤣)

The fun part is that I find pieces that I forgot I even had in my possession! Such as;

I’m glad that my closet is magic! I get to enjoy finding new and exciting pieces to dress myself into!! 🤣

Have fun in your closet! Dress each day to be who you are! Don’t be afraid to try a new or vintage style and make it your own!

Wear shoes that don’t maych your outfit, be silly, be expressive and slip into that flamboyant dress and dance through your days!

Carnival people, often called “carnies,” are the employees who work at carnivals and fairs. They are responsible for setting up, maintaining, and operating various aspects of the carnival, from rides and games to food stands and entertainment. Carnies are known for their hard work, versatility, and dedication to creating a festive and enjoyable experience for visitors. 

So go to a carnival and have an instance of merrymaking, feasting, or masquerading!

The man who designed and built The House on the Rock was Wisconsin-native Alex Jordan, Jr. (1914-1989). Around the year 1940, Jordan discovered a 60-foot chimney of rock in rural Spring Green and decided to build a weekend retreat, using his knowledge of construction that he attained by working for his father.

In 1960, Alex Jordan opened his dream house built atop a chimney of rock to the public. Over the years, Alex expanded his vision beyond the House and collected and built on a massive scale. What began as a lofty retreat with an awe-inspiring view has become a spectacular attraction known as The House on the Rock.

The 2017 film American Fable features parts of the house, including the carousel and Infinity Room, in a dream sequence. The 1997 10,000 Maniacs music video for “More Than This” was filmed at the House. The 2019 Raconteurs music video for “Somedays (I Don’t Feel Like Trying)” was also filmed there.

The House on the Rock in Wisconsin is valued at over $4.8 million. This includes the carousel, which is worth over $4.8 million itself. The complex houses thousands of artifacts, antiques, and custom artwork, contributing to its overall high value. The House on the Rock is a privately held, family-run business, according to their website.

I found this and I find it tells the truth for me…

“and the ocean taught her how to drown in all the things bigger than herself. The ocean loved her and knew everything that made her. And every time she’d walk to the shore. she’d smile at the ocean because the waves told her story.”
r.m. drake

I also believe in the ocean curing all bad moods. I believe in the waves wiping away worries. I believe in seashells bringing good luck. I believe in toes in the sand grounding my soul.

I wish that I lived nearby to the ocean but I don’t sadly. I have been there a few times and I treasure those memories of complete relaxation. The sound of the waves crashing onto the shore of the beach was so soothing and pushed all negative thoughts out of my mind.

Gazing out to the never ending ocean to see dolphins gliding in the blue green water was so inspiring and beautiful.

Feeling the water caress over my feet as I walked the edge of the beach helped me wash away my stress.

Watching the different colors of the sunset over the glistening ocean is like an artist’s palette.

The air surrounding me was crisp and salty but I love that scent and I miss all of it.

I was able to enjoy with my husband amd daughter which made it even more special.🩷
