RESTING UP FOR THE BIG TURKEY FEAST

NATURE'S CHRISTMAS ORNAMENTS

LUCKY IN LOVE

I gather from many of the women that I work with on a daily basis, that I have been blessed to have found a kind and considerate man to share my life with. My Mom loves, loves, loves him so what does that say?  Anyway getting to the point of this post...... I came home on Thursday night from work to this amazing dinner.  This is not an unusual event, it is actually the norm. He chooses to do this and I practice gratitude for his thoughtfulness. What we have, is something I wish I were better at making women understand.  We have kindness and consideration for each other.  We do not worry or question each other about anything.  EVER!  If I need time to myself, I take it, I go away for an hour, a day, a week, whatever I need.  He does likewise.  I totally believe that is the secret to true love.  You do not "own" anyone, as no one "owns" you.  Practice daily kindness and consideration for each other.  What could be more important than that? 

P.S.  Maybe one of these days I will put up a few pics of my handsome fella!!!!


KINDNESS ON A PLATE.  LOVE IN A GLASS.



OMG'dess

I am so joyful and thankful to Spiritdog Studios for nominating me for the Versatile Blogger Award!  Chrislyn is an inspiring and beautiful person and I thank her. Please go visit her site and your day will be much better for it! See the nomination here.

In accepting this award you are asked to:

1. Thank the person who nominated you publicly on your blog.

2. Post a picture of the award in the blog post and in your sidebar.

3. List 7 things about yourself that may not be common knowledge.

4. Pass it on to 7 other Bloggers.

5. Make sure to inform the nominees that they have been awarded the Versatile Blogger Award.

7 things......REALLY!  OK here goes:

1. I never thought of myself as the "Romantic" type, however when I saw my Husband the first time, it was absolutely, unequivocally LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT!  (kinda korny i know)

2. My brain is one of those that is not more left or more right, it is equally 50-50.  I am an accountant, good with the numbers and business, and I am a creative artistic soul as well.

3.  I am an empath, mostly with animals, but also with people. I rarely share that information.

4. I am somehow, a very healthy person.  I do not get sick. I do not have issues.

5. I do not sleep well, partly because of being an empath and mostly because I can't stop my brain from wanting to create ideas. And all these wonderful Blogs out here are not helping.

6. I always knew I was a witch, forever.

7. I am addicted to cheese, in any form.  Mac-n-cheese, grilled cheese, wine and cheese, blue cheese.  Cheeeeeeese already!!!!

Now, here are my nominees for the Versatile Blogger Award, and let me say that their wild creativity makes this world a more beautiful place, and your life will be more joyful with them in it!

2.Bird Gardener's Place of Earthy Spirituality

Please spend some time visiting these magickal sites. Your time invested will be paid back tenfold. (uh-oh i think that may be the 50% accountant coming out) Bright Blessings to you all.  And many, many thanks again to Chrislyn of Spiritdog Studios for my nomination!

Blogging is hard work

I thought I would give my human the day off and do a blog post. 

I am a star already....'nuff said!

OK, where do all these creative bloggers get their ideas from???       

GET OUT! Can't you see how hard I am working?

BLOG-BLOG-BLOG.......I'm exhausted

MY DREAM DAY

"My idea of a perfect Autumn day well spent"



Morning Coffee with the "Hubby", picnic style.

GATHERING ENERGY FROM THE SUN!

Snow Fawn in Black & White

My mind sees a million things when I start walking and snapping photos.
 I see so many details with an artists eye that most people pass by.
Open your senses to all that is there, and one day you will wonder how you missed it all for so long.
Practice the art of observation, and soon, you too will see purple fawns and so much more.

Sunshine after the storm

When the sun is high, the Willows will stop weeping

Blue skies are back

PICTURES DON'T LIE, (or do they?)

Proof positive that I really do live in an "enchanted forest".  An early snow storm and some photo editing fun make for some Magick.  If anyone would care to use these photos for crafty projects, please feel free and enjoy.  I am thinking the obvious, Christmas cards.

A TABLE MADE PRETTY FOR MY MOM


Be Blessed and Be Well
Happy Halloween

Charming Charms

I like to create charms, as they are quicker to assemble than full pieces of jewelry, they do not have to match everything you wear, and the recipient does not have to feel obligated to wear them!  I made this one for a friend who is going thru a difficult time right now. It will be a reminder to him that "this too shall pass"  I call it "Make Peace with Your Demons"

Feline Night Visions

I captured this pic of my kitten and her night vision.  This mystical animal was given to me by my dear friend, Sue.  What a GIFT!!

Sharing Inspiration

I love doing collage work and using my own pics to make altered art.  The artwork that inspired this blog, please enjoy!

Boil and Bubble, Toil and Trouble

My dear "Hubby" and I are addicted junk collectors, with a keen eye for the strangest and the rustiest.  We picked up this cool "cauldron" for a great yard decoration.
