    T Tuesday: photo op edition

    October 16, 2017 - By 

    The weeks are flying by…sort of…they are long in the fact that I’m not getting my creative time in anymore. But also short…as in I haven’t gotten everything marked off my to-do list…not even once.

    I am having fun with the photo challenge I picked though.

    Here are my photos from the first 9 days….

    Since #8 also is my usual beverage it’s counting as my obligatory photo for T stands for Tuesday as well.

    This past weekend was homecoming at school. Mini-me was in the parade then went to the football game on Friday. The dance was Saturday. A group a 7 girls went and had a blast.

    Sunday had us doing yard work and helping J apply for college. Wow…can hardly believe it!

    Monday night was the Fall choir concert and this time we saw both of our kids performing. What a treat.

    Thanks for sticking with me through my meager and sporadic posting.

    T Tuesday: photo challenge edition

    October 2, 2017 - By 

    Aside from the daily Instagram posts I plan to do a recap of the photos periodically here as well.Welcome to T stands for Tuesday! Won’t you join me for a cuppa and a brief chat…

    Since time is still fleeting for me I’m going to try something new this month. A daily photo challenge. I know at this point I’m already behind but that’s ok…I’ll catch up. I figure I should have time to snap a quick photo with my phone and upload it to my Instagram.

    Now to decide which one I want to play along with….  I’ve narrowed it down to 3 choices, sticking with current challenges.

    Regardless of which challenge I chose, I plan to do a recap of the photos periodically here as well as the daily Instagram posts. It should be a fun challenge keeping up with things and thinking outside the box at times especially with limited time.

    Believe in yourself

    September 24, 2017 - By 

    That is a message that I feel gets lost to many folk. Not naming any names but…. em-hem …you know who you are!believe in yourself art journal page

    I don’t think this is an entirely Midwestern thing but we are definitely the champions of down playing ourselves…to the point of forgetting to believe in our own capabilities. I know I spiraled down this rabbit hole myself a time or two but it drives me absolutely up the wall when I see other folk…perfectly capable folk…downplay themselves so much.

    Ok, off the soap box…. but seriously…just do it…. BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!!!!
