#tsll2ndbook

I had to share this recently shared-with-me TSLL reader pic of #tsll2ndbook captured by @asimplecupoftea - Gigi, who shared: "Lessons learned from your second book - Treat yourself to a bouquet of lilacs just because." The lilacs are stunning and I can only imagine wonderfully fragrant. Thank you so very much for sharing Gigi. And wishing you many wonderful everydays. 😌💛 https://www.instagram.com/p/Cc3O6pIunpn/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Something quite special arrived today. The first proofs of #tsll3rdbook (hardback copies will also be available). This part of the publishing journey involves checking that the layout is correct, pages and text fall where it should and all looks as I imagined it in my mind for the past two years. More updated proofs will be ordered, but the first arrival is always a day to frame. As well, we check for the color/print to appear as @sarahloeckerart original artwork was designed for the cover and all of the interior illustrations (13 inside). And then, I just literally dance around the house holding this book in my hands as it is hard to fathom when you are neck-deep in the creation and editing mode that this moment will actually arrive. Phew and Wahoo!! Norman thinks I am more than too excited about something that is not food/treats, but I tried to explain - You're on the cover Norman! ☺️🙃❤️ 🐾 I have taken all of the lessons and requests from readers from the previous two books and done as much as I could to incorporate what you hoped this book would contain - indexes (with lists of the recommended MANY books and music shared), improved headers to indicate which chapter/month you are reading, bringing back the individual chapter illustrations - something that was a part of #tsll1stbook but not #tsll2ndbook, giving you a Petit Plaisir for each of the 366 daily entries and a few other details you'll have to wait and see when the book is released on March 22, 2022. Oh! And we have a date for the Virtual Book Signing and Author Chat scheduled with a local independent bookshop - @roundaboutbooks . Stay tuned for that date and how you can order signed copies from them. Now I must stop dancing and return to the office to start recording the audio version. ☺️🎙📖 Learn more about the book by clicking the link in my profile and then the picture of the book cover. https://www.instagram.com/thesimplyluxuriouslife/p/CZH-XlGvxIt/?utm_medium=tumblr

Mornings, especially summer mornings, ignite me to pop out of bed and begin the day. Certainly having pups to nudge you along helps, and although Norman would gladly sleep in, as soon as he hears the word walk, he bounds to the door ready to explore. The day begins in my household with the pups being fed first, then the tea kettle comes to a boil for hot water and lemon to sip and hot water to prepare my go-to morning steel-cut oats. Paired with either a two-egg French omelette and avocado-citrus toast or over-easy eggs and fresh orange juice, I play the daily mini crossword. And then the day of movement begins! Okay, first, some meditation and then the walk of which where we will go differs every day, all part of the fun of a brand new day. Each of us will design a morning that works with our responsibilities and household inhabitants, but whatever you include, making sure to enjoy what you do will elevate the entire day. Check out #tsll2ndbook for more ideas for daily, weekly and seasonal routines and rituals to make your everyday extraordinary. Bonne journée! #tsllmynorman (at Bend, Oregon) https://www.instagram.com/p/B0oC60NgRX2/?igshid=ghve8w5s8wf4
