You Did It Right!

I have, over two years time doing Bikram yoga 3-4 times a week, become very comfortable with camel pose. Today was no exception. I went into the pose, without fear, because I have come to trust my teachers to not leave me there for more than 20 seconds. I came out of the pose and . . . → Read More: You Did It Right!

Root Notes

Today I found my inbox just TOO full.  Sound familiar? So I went on a little hunt down into what I call the "bowels" of the box.  This is the place that I "save" important stuff for future use, but it seems like "future" comes and goes and these "important" words take up residence . . . → Read More: Root Notes

No Limits!

This morning before I left for Bikram yoga I got an email from Koko Fit Club informing me that I was now moving to the next level and was eligible for an orange lanyard. You get points for every workout and for every 50,000 points you earn a new color lanyard for your flash drive. . . . → Read More: No Limits!

Oh My!

Do you even know how amazing this blog challenge is? First, I get all caught up in learning digital art. Then I meet the fabulous Diana Lesire Brandmeyer here in the challenge.

Holy Holy Holy….

…Lord God almighty….. How many of you Catholics out there remember that little song from mass on Sundays? It still rings in my head after all these years. While still feeling allegiance to the catholic faith, I have bounced from holy building to holy building trying to find a peaceful home now for many years. . . . → Read More: Holy Holy Holy….

Be Yourself…and..

This blog challenge is just the thing for January, which is usually a long, cold, uneventful month. I've met so many wonderful, creative souls who have gone out of their way to encourage me. I sit at night until the wee hours of the morning reading all the wonderful blogs on the Ultimate Challenge Facebook . . . → Read More: Be Yourself…and..

The Eyes Have It

Seeing is believing….at least that's how I felt today after another painting lesson on YouTube. Yesterday on the Facebook Ultimate Blog Challenge page I read a blog that had beautiful pictures of colorful eyes. (I think by now I have established that as an artist bright colors ignite me.) The first thing I thought of . . . → Read More: The Eyes Have It

Hallowed

Happy New Year to all my readers. In these first minutes of 2013, let us contemplate peace, love, and joy. Where is that better to be found than in your God? I have a friend I met in yoga class that is the vocalist for the Christian band Skywatch – a wonderful local band here . . . → Read More: Hallowed

Clean Jammies

Yesterday a friend of mine posted on Facebook “today was one of those days when you take a shower just to put your pajamas back on…” I loved that post. There’s nothing better on a holiday or Sunday to take a shower and put on clean jammies and snuggle in for the day.
