41/45-The Power of 5

I am a firm believer in signs and numerology, I also believe those things are divinely put in my path to help guide me. Sometimes I miss the message, or think it may not be for me at that time, but when it hits me of the significance, I reflect back and think about how long the sign has been waiting for me to…

39/45-Phoenix, Ashes, Dust. RISE!

How many times in your lifetime do you suppose you will rise up from the ashes, once the dust has settled? Are we counting the little things, because I don’t think we are, Phoenixes only rise from the most absolute fires, returning to life stronger, more wisened each time. What a come back, rising from the ashes of the fire that meant to destroy…

38/45-So much to say/Bracket talk

I wrote a doozy of a blog post last night, and as I suspected, I chickened out of posting it today. What is too much honesty? What is too much said. I had Bill read it, and he said to post it because it is honest. I said I couldn’t post it because it is too much. He said post it because it is…

37/45-Where did the day go?

You know how you start your day with a plan, with steps of succession? Yes, well my day started off that way and then kinda went off the rails. You never know what kinds of wrenches may be thrown your way, but you have to roll with it nonetheless. Here is my finished paint job in my space, now I need to rearrange things,…

36/45-Wet Paint

I started my day around 9:30, washing down walls, then I taped off woodwork, and proceeded to paint two coats of Sherwin Williams Extra White on the walls. I just pulled the tape off and washed my paint tools for the next time. Life is so much better when you clean up right away, and after the job is done! I am beat to…

35/45-St.Patrick’s Day Randomness

This was the perfect day to have windows open, to reflect on what I have gotten done so far this week and to look things that I need to wrap up this week and/or add to next week! AND, today I looked out in my front yard, my maple tree is leafing!!! Yeehaw!! I love when all the flora and fauna start coming back…

34/45-The Necessary Discomfort-Self Portrait

I am going to level with you, I never want my picture taken, so I never get my picture taken. A couple years ago I joined a photography group that does challenges, and one of the challenges was self portraiture. I put that challenge off, and in the end, I did not do it. I think it took me 3 rounds of said challenge…

33/45-L-I-V-I-N

Did you know that when Wooderson said that, it was based on Matthew McConaughey’s father’s saying of it? I love that. And here I am, just L-I-V-I-N! Today: more laundry, more cleaning, some photo education, cooking dinner, balance checkbook, purchase paint, contemplate the things we buy in to with our time, attention and energy… Just livin life! How about you, what mundane tasks are…

32/45-A Pup Appreciation Post

Some days, you just need to sit with your dog, let him find solace in you. In turn, he will return that feeling to you. By petting him, he feels your care and kindness. He appreciates the love you bestow upon him, how you soothe his tired bones. The gift appears one sided, but even if he is tired, he still army crawled his…
