I think I just flipped the switch - must mean change...

It has been almost a year since my last post (January 2011), and about a year in a half since the beginning of my 1st post (July 2010). I like so many others found the up keep of a blog hard and sometimes over whelming. Trying to Bloom where you are Planted can cause lost moments where time doesn't come back around. Yet I'm still standing and I am still here. I think I want to do this, open up and share my thoughts, some wisdom, some goals, some crafts and some life. My husband shared this video recently and I found myself re-looking and re-thinking how I really see myself and how I really need to want to remove my OWN imposed limitations.


Please enjoy and keep Blooming Soulfully...

SURRENDER - AND DO THE THANG

Welcome to the next step in the Journey aka 2011. Thankful for so much...my health, my family's health, a roof over my head, food to eat, a car that bearly drive but does, people who love me, activities I love, company I love, a church family I love, prayers that I send up, hands that I hold, cheeks I kiss, hugs that I can give, tea and coffee I can make, people I can call just to say hello, people who help me make things happen, my sunday school class, ability to put away holiday decorations, staying dry during the rain, learning my lessons during my journey, finding knew things to do and grow from, putting one foot in front of the other, past, present and hope for the future. I SEE YOU LIFE, LETS DO THE THANG.

Reclaiming Christmas, Life, Joy and ATTITUDE

Having a wonderful conversation with a dear dear friend of mine...we discovered we had a bad attitude about the holidays, we were not cherishing the memories, sad to be low on funds, sick people in the house and a whole bunch of stuff in between. So I came home, took out my Christmas decorations, rethought what I can offer as gifts, keeping my father in prayer as he prepares of a surgery on 12/21 and making the right CHOICE about my attitude. To confirm this direction, I discovered a statement that was given out at my cousin funeral, that states the one choice we have is what attitude we choose to take and I would add - who we choose to follow...as for me and my house...

No Dinner Yet!!!

It's 9:45pm and I have just taken dinner out of the oven and my babies are just now eating. DH, couldn't wait...he went to sleep. Another busy night in my household so we are all on the late train...yikes!!! Still looking for a job and I have an assignment to complete to send to my career counselor before morning. What, I like best...well for starters, I love the grey fingless gloves I made for my DD this weekend. They were a design from my dear friend Jan Larson in Cali, and then I love my "Yuletide" Kool Aid dyed fiber with food coloring (red on green and green on red) take a wild guess and lastly I love my "Leaving Autumn" Kool Aid dyed fiber. If only I could make a living on this amazing stuff. Just showing off and having fun in the valley of life.

So join me in losing no less than 10 pounds by Christmas which is on a Saturday this year gotta do it!!

25 Days Until Christmas
