Inspirations Saturday Revisit 1

Hello! I know it’s Sunday but this morning I wanted to post a couple of pics of what we made out of one of our Inspiration ideas. Last Month my blog post Christmas Cheer was about using holiday greetings to make Christmas signage for my house. Well, better late than never, here are a couple of…

Back on the Fitness

If you’re like me, and probably millions of other people, you’d like to be in great shape… Naturally. That’s right, just perfect without ever having to workout or move from your bed or couch. Wow, wouldn’t that be awesome. Well, it doesn’t work that way and it never will. “Sawwies!” Today Emma and I agreed…

New Year’s List

This morning is the first day of the new year for me because yesterday I enjoyed the holiday, and sat around and played W.o.W. I tried really hard to finish all my favorite foods that were calling to me, and I stayed up late. I know, I’m crazy sometimes. This morning is my fresh start.…

I’m Sorry

So, I was in the shower washing my hair, and I started to pray for a family I know who is really suffering right now because of the loss of a mother and now the father is sad and wasting away. I was praying for peace for them and then it came to me, that…

Post Christmas Blues

I Just read the title of our pastor’s new blog entry that said, “How to handle the post-Christmas blues.” Aw, really? People get sad AFTER Christmas? Why didn’t I know this? I guess I knew it when I was a dispatcher because of the increase of suicides and domestic problems this time of year, but…

In The Moment

Last night Emma and I were watching TV and I said to her, “It’s so weird that I haven’t posted on my blog. All this time is passing and I haven’t been posting a thing or writing on it, and I have no idea why.” She asked me if I didn’t like it, and I…

Inspiration Saturday 11/22/14

Ok, so! I’m going to show you what I’ve decided to do this weekend to jump start my creative brain. My husband came home from work yesterday after reading my blog, and said he was afraid of what he’d find. Apparently, he feared I would be re-building my car engine or putting up a house…

Hanging Around In-Between

Do you ever have days where no matter what you do you just can’t get out of that funk? I’m not talkin’ disco funk folks, I’m talkin’ rut funk. Not sad, not happy… Wow, that totally reminded me of a line from the movie The Beach. Leonardo DiCaprio’s character is referring to one of the paradise-beach residents…

Inspiration Saturday 11/15/14

Today I’m inspired by some of the photography I saw this week. I’ve been so busy with my family and house stuff I’ve really put my photography on the back burner. I received a call from one of Emma’s teachers, from when she was in school, about a photo shoot. I’m so excited to do…
