havin' fun

Bonnie wasn't sure what to make of the beep that went off when photo booth snapped a shot. That's my curious pup!

I am looking forward to putting together my new art desk that I got for my birfday. Let's get this studio started!!!

Stinkin' funny

A snippet...
Today, I held a door open for an old lady. She said, "Thank you." I was caught between "no problem" and "you're welcome." I chose "your problem." It was awkward. MLIA

Welcome to my world!

Awkward

Replace the beer with coffee and the cigarette with candy and you've got my childhood. Not quite as rebelious as this family, but just as funny. Thank you http://awkwardfamilyphotos.com for the Friday laughs.

My tree lovin' dad and me - circa 1986

Fresh

There is nothing better than a bowl of fresh fruit on a summer day. Of
course, there are a few things better than the stomach ache that comes
after eating a TON of fresh fruit at one time on a summer day. Like a
couple pounds of cherries in a matter of three days. By herself. What?
They were good. Really good. So were the mounds of strawberries and
blueberries I had this week. I'm a sucker for fresh fruit and veggies
even if the end result is a wicked tummy ache. I love summer and fresh
produce. I think I'll go slice some strawberries. I'll show my tummy
who's boss. Yeah right.

God is a creative Creator!

brain flash - When I am closer to God I am closer to art. I just realized that when I am intently focused on Jesus and His presence/will for every aspect of my life I feel more creative. I am drawn to art and things that make my soul sing. Of course, Jesus makes my soul sing. When I am concerned about my walk with Him I find beautiful things presenting themselves. A conversation with a friend, a focus on art, a desire to be creative. When I fall away from my Lord I feel lazy, unmotivated and lacking. Surprise surprise. However, I never connected being with Jesus and being artistic. Things keep coming up that are tying the two together.

More on this later. I must get back my paycheck duties.

Praise Jesus that He never leaves us and always roots for us!
