Starting a new week
It's been such a nice Easter, I actually had some time to do a little art on eggs. I do not get much time to just do art for art's sake these days. It's a very peaceful, mindful practice. I hope you had a lovely holiday.
One thing I am going…
Like the Ceiling Can’t Hold Us
I need a little pick up today...and this song came on Pandora.

This Moment – It’s all we have now

Somebody’s got a Case of the Mondays
How was your Monday?

Change your mind
When I was in my early twenties a friend started a spark in my brain that changed my perspective on what was possible. At the time I was married to the wrong person, had two small children and we weren't even really making ends meet. I had…
Space to be
It's a busy life, but I try to carve out a little time each week for just me and a little open space. Whether its a park or a nature preserve I need a little time to myself. This is so essential to me. When I don't get it I start to wind…
Good Friends
We had a wonderful last minute dinner tonight with good friends. Amongst margaritas & yummy food we caught up on the last few months.
These are the type of friends that you may be 'too busy' to catch up with for a few months, but that…
