Gathering of Wisdom Keepers

It’s been a week of busy-ness with snippets of self-care thrown in. I got my nails done Friday evening before the Brickton Art Opening and sitting still without anything to review, write, or create was a treat. It’s been hard to plan for a non-business getaway this year because of the many work and social […]

Exploring Volo Bog

Over the Holiday Weekend I felt the need to take a hike. I decided to revisit Volo Bog State Natural Area, where I had been a few times almost a decade ago. I was pleased to see the preserve was still as nice as I remembered, and that it was quiet in spite of the […]

Summer

Summer has begun and I wish I could go on vacation. Instead I am sneaking lake time away from the computer when I can. I uninstalled the DOT Show and am pleased my circles held up well. I even got to take home 2 of Carol Hamilton’s dots. Along the way I got to watch […]

Celebrating Life

Last week was quite celebratory with Pie Day kicking off the week, celebrating Irish lore on Thursday, and then opening my show on Friday. Monday started with Pie Day, and a CRAVE event offered perfect healthy pie by Pyrite Sun. We chatted about big dreams in growing our businesses at Creative Coworking and savored every […]

A Healthier Me

Earlier this month I started a 2-week cleanse inspired by MyHealthBeet. I had done a 4-day cleanse with her program before that didn’t impact me too much results-wise. I quickly went back to my old food routine. This time, I needed a re-set from stress-related habits that crept in, such as snacking a lot (and […]

Winterscape

It got frosty again last weekend. In spite of the freeze, the skies are gorgeous. Old snow got shoveled and turned into its own sculpture. Hibernating included having lovely icescapes on the windows. It’s neat to see what the combination of heaters and ice create. My original angel perused the winter wonderland. Another load of […]

Refreshing

The more I get to know authentic people, the more “anti-resolutions” the input becomes around new years. I agree with not setting unrealistic goals for yourself, especially those driven by ridiculous image standards, but I also like the concept of using the new year as a re-set. Halfway through reading Essentialism my life became quite […]

Frosty beginnings

The new year is off to a frosty start with the ice queen paying a visit again. Her crown is a bit different this year, but still gorgeous. I watched Frozen for the first time over Christmas, and then read the orginal Snow Queen fairy tale. In the real world we are facing crunchy ice-capades […]

A Merry Year-end

It’s been fun to create new goodies for my friends this season. Their inspiration has sparked my creativity, and I have more spin-offs in my head from the pendants and ornaments ordered for their loved ones or themselves. My chunky beaded bangle got a few admirers, and fortunately Dakota Beads had two more strands for […]
