Today is a beautiful day to stop by the farm.
Michael and I started the morning with coffee around a bonfire. One thing we’ve made a priority this year is doing something enjoyable every single day. At 43, we’re realizing more and more what a gift each day really is.
We aren’t rich enough to travel whenever we want or live in a big fancy house, but what we do have is this farm, and it feels like a gift every day.
What many people don’t know is that we moved into our farm store out of necessity and made the choice to embrace a smaller, simpler life. It has been a much bigger adjustment than we ever imagined, but also a lot easier in many ways than we expected. Living with less has taught us to appreciate more.
One of my favorite mindset shifts has been pretending I’m camping every day. It’sso much fun! Instead of focusing on what I don’t have, I’ve been focusing on the things that bring me joy. I’ve been intentionally bringing more whimsy, wonder, and gratitude back into my life because I’ve decided that my happiness isn’t going to depend on my circumstances.
Right now, I’m building a whimsical walking trail on the back acre of the farm, a place to wander, think, dream, and enjoy the beauty around us. I imagine wildflowers, little surprises along the path, and plenty of reasons to slow down and notice the world.
Would anyone be interested in joining me for a walk sometime? I’d love the company.
In the meantime, if you’re looking for a peaceful place to spend part of your day, come see us at the farm. The flowers are blooming, the vegetables are growing, and there’s always a little bit of magic waiting here under the Oklahoma sky. 🌻✨ When you arrive at Ruzycki Farms, 10200 N. Choctaw Rd. Jones, OK 73049, give us a call at 405-802-4401. Chances are we’re out in the gardens, fields, flower patches, or somewhere around the farm, and we’ll be happy to come greet you. 🌻💚
