Un sejour…

We are off on a little adventure for two.

Yay !

It will involve some nature loving,

connecting with some peeps we like a lot along the way,

and time to just be him and me…

Feeling  very blessed.

See you in June, Beautiful Ones !

Big love to you !

Haiku My Heart–Going Tiny…

Look into tiny

In the midst of overwhelm

You can find Heaven.

 

***************************

I had already taken some “tiny” photos this morning when my Magic Maker/Artist friend, Elizabeth, posted this link on on Facebook, about “tiny studies” in your creativity.

In a week that has felt overwhelmingly grey and rather heavy,

the notion of going tiny,

looking at a pebble,

making a stitch,

taking one bite,

going in for a macro shot

feels comforting and manageable,

and just whelming enough.

I am going tiny and accepting the grey, in its many, many shade, today.

May your day be just whelming enough too, Beautiful Ones!

Happy Friday !

Semi-Wordless Wednesday–That kind of day ?

Ever have days when you want to

pull the covers over your head

and hide out ?

It would seem that silly black cats do as well.

Happy Wednesday from Boo and me, Beautiful Ones!

Shine on…

Counting my many, many blessings…

Sending prayers and love to people in Oklahoma,

and to all of those in need of them…

Holding my little light in the dark…

When it joins with yours, it shines even brighter…

Shine on, Beautiful Ones.

Haiku My Heart–Marks on the Map

Document your path.

Hills, valleys, monsters, angels.

Marks on your Heart’s map.

Tea stains, doodling and a little watercolor

have been brings more maps into my art work.

Makes a lot of sense as I try and find firmer footing on my path again.

Along with the comfort, clarity and freedom I get from creative time,

I am also so grateful for the good loving of dear peeps in my world.

They are what makes the path worth every bump.

 

Today, I am wearing purple in support of my friend, Melissa who is coping with one heck of an obstacle in her path. Melissa has lupus and bravely faces the physical, emotional and financial challenges of this horrible disease every day.

Today is Put on Purple for Lupus Awareness Day. To show your support, put on some purple and visit Lupus.org.

Share the Joy–Little things…

No matter how grumpy or blah I get,

there is always joy to be found.

Joy in the little things,

small graces,

in fact,

is

one of

my ways up and out.

This week’s joy list are all present moment beauties.

Things that made my heart feel glad, joyful just by stopping

and looking at them with my full attention.

Look around.

What’s bringing you joy right in this very moment…?

two sides of an egg shaped Rock Being…

my wares displayed on my altar…

spent bits from dyeing…

my daily sprig of lilac and its heavenly scent…

kitty cat stalking squirrel…

taking time to stop, breathe and see…

all joys to me…

Semi- Wordless Wednesday–Inside and Out

The warmer spring weather is returning today after a few days of real chill.

That makes the girl a lot less grumpy.

Been working through a week where things felt choppy and lacking flow.

But as I look at what was created in the midst of that,

I’m seeing juiciness inside and out…

It’s all good, as they say.

Happy Wednesday, Beautiful Ones !

I hope your day is a juicy one.

Haiku My Heart–This One Sweet Day

 

Take this one sweet day

See, taste, smell, hear, feel, love it.

Your one precious life.

Big Love !

Share the Joy Thursday–Intoxicating Spring

From today’s Joy List :

Having this day to stop and smell the tulips, as it were…

All that is on the agenda is some laundry and a whole lot of time in the studio,

cleaning up and reconnecting with my art stuff.

The weather on this fine Thursday is playing along perfectly.

Spring time grey with gentle moistening rain…

The kind that makes the earth and all its inhabitants sigh with delight…

The scents wafting on the air are intoxicatingly sweet.

All is poised for a very fine day for this joyful Artist Girl.

Happy Thursday, Beautiful Ones !

May your joy be abundant today !
