Love Letters from the Good Life

Inspiration / August 29, 2020

Back on the Horse

Greetings my sweet readers, and if you’re still there, tuned in, thank you. It’s no secret that this summer has been ridiculously difficult on us all. Between the fright and worry surrounding Covid, the intensity of race relations in the light of recent events, and a general feeling that we are all trapped indoors, it’s been more than difficult to feel inspired and to therefore inspire you in any way. I’m fortunate that this uneventful summer has turned more than a little eventful for me, so I’m going to try and catch you up on a few things before hopping back in the saddle for our usual twice-weekly posts. Ready?

Work

Oh, man…  this one is big.  In April, I was approached by our CEO to move to one of my real estate Brokerage’s sister companies.  I’m fortunate that this is a small, luxury-style firm here in Louisville, a bit closer to my house than Semonin’s office was.  Rather than keeping my title of Sales Manager, I was promoted to General Manager of the Brokerage, and have a team of 37 involved and talented agents.  With a bigger than average price point, and a chic branding, I settled in at Wakefield Reutlinger on June 1st.

Home

After our master bath renovation went as smoothly with Miracle Method as it did, we decided to tackle the guest bath as well.  As I sit here, the toilet is removed, as is the vanity top and hardware, and the floors and shower have been refinished in a bright white.  Painting of the walls and vanity should happen this week, allowing me to get the vanity top, lighting, and accessories in there the week after we return from…

The Honeymoon

The Honeymoon.  Travel is scary right about now, but Bryan and I have been planning our annual jaunt to Palm Springs on our usual date, leaving the Saturday morning of Labor Day weekend.  Sure, this is the same trip we’ve been taking the last few years, but this year, we decided to bump our tickets to First Class and call it a Honeymoon.  We’ve decided, too, that as much as we lovvvvve staying at the Parker, to try out the calm and vintage Ingleside Inn.  I’ve been watching the restaurants out there stay open and offer patio seating, and we figured that if we can still sit down with some of the local business owners for a meal and spend our days lounging by the pool with a book or hiking Taquitz Canyon, it’s worth wearing a mask on an airplane.

Upcoming Plans

While I don’t want to divulge too much just yet, there are some big things in the works for the man and I.  I’m hoping to have some fun things ready to announce when we get back from California.

Upcoming Listings

I have an Italian beauty that should be on the market by the end of September, a dramatic townhome, and possibly a tree-house like condo, perched above one of the original St. Matthews farm houses.  Stay tuned!

Thank you, again, for allowing me the grace that you have in taking a three month hiatus. I’m so glad to be back.

Maybe it’s due to an overactive mind, a desire to feel like I’m influencing someone, or perhaps, it’s simply that I need to talk.

Wrapped up the first week of the new year by worki Wrapped up the first week of the new year by working from home, setting intention for 2021, and planning client parties, holiday gatherings. Hoping your new year is off to the best start. Cheers, y’all.
Wishing you the most beautiful Christmas. This yea Wishing you the most beautiful Christmas. This year hasn’t been the easiest on anyone, and the holidays may be difficult. I hope you find the light this season, and that even if Christmas Day is spent alone, I hope that the quiet and the snow, the light of the tree and the music on the radio provide a heart full of love.
While the man and I aren’t really doing a beauti While the man and I aren’t really doing a beautiful table setting this year (we have paper plates and a folding table), or roasting a huge bird and hosting 20 people for board games and bourbon (it’ll be turkey meatballs for two, because... Covid), I still wanted to throw some inspiration out there. This is my favorite Thanksgiving tablescape from 2017. This table is on the blog now! Cheers, y’all.
Coming soon: a century-old beauty that you just ha Coming soon: a century-old beauty that you just have to see. Keep your eyes peeled, y’all, for an Old Louisville mansion hitting the market next week.
So hard to believe our gorgeous home is on the mar So hard to believe our gorgeous home is on the market... so many years here, and so many changes in our lives. This house has seen the loss of both our dogs, both my parents. We celebrated our engagement here, came home happy and silly after a Christmas elopement. Thanksgiving here has been full of Bourbon and friends and Trivial Pursuit.  This has been my happy place for the better part of a decade. 

Going to sleep tonight in hopes of the right buyer who will love these walls as much as we have 💕
Happy Friday from the best place on earth! Happy Friday from the best place on earth!
