sleepless in

piglet bedtime Thursday 22 I want to cheerfully say…

Good Morning everyone… however, having been awoken to activity, and then have 2 full-grown whippets try to snuggle down with me.. ((((who let me add, wanted their breakfast)))) shall we just say, “happy Saturday” and get up to meet the day.

I know you have met little Piglet, but I have been working on texture, I think that you are able to glimpse it. What you can’t see is Piglet’s nose is shiny, with a wet look. I’d love to know what is at the bottom of the cup, she seems so pleased with herself. From the smudges on her face, ?? anyway, she seems happy. That is all we can ask for isn’t it. A happy Piglet.

In life there are circumstances we can control, and other’s we can’t. A wise person once said, “know when to pick your battles”

Today’s PL Calendar page reads, “Listen” and “See” With Careful Attention and Accept Each Other.

“Focus your “eyes” and “ears” towards the expression of others without any preconceived notions. Then you will be able to see their true intentions.”

card 1.1.18

I like this card, I no longer have it, but still have this picture .. Makes me smile, YOU make me smile, Let us all have a day where we share our happiness with others.

crossing the road

Africa - Leopard tortoise

leopard tortoise meandering along on his/her way, likely oblivious to the spectators following his journey. It’s intent is to get to where it is going.

In the pouring rain today, sirens could be heard coming from different directions as I made my way across the city. It was a constant downpour, so I wasn’t hurrying. I simply pointed myself in the direction I was headed, and followed the traffic in front of me, mindful of the speed limits and the traffic lights.

From the news this evening, I learned that in the early part of the day, there had been a lot of accidents with cars, trucks school buses going off the road and highways due to the slippery conditions. The usual pictures of vehicles in the ditch and the complaining that the darn weather was the cause of everything that happened.

I, like the tortoise accept that we live on this beautiful multi-facetted planet.. .. we are responsible for our actions. When one foot goes in front of the other, or a direction is taken, we are moving, it is me, myself and I making the choices that move me through the day.

It is not the weather that had me leave the house without an umbrella, it was a choice I made to leave without one. If I am walking along the road and it is so wet that the puddles are like small lakes, I have to know that a car could go by and I will be drenched. It is not the car’s fault if I do get splashed. That’s life.

Does that sound callous, I don’t mean to, it is just that life is what it is, and wet weather is part of living on this earth. Winter in some countries means, snow, cooler weather, and slippery roads. It is life. If you know you have to deal with such things, why is it a surprise when winter weather does what it does. If you have lived here for a lifetime, then, it happens every year. It is not something new.

Happiness is a state of mind we choose to live in. If you decide that negativity is all you see around you, then perhaps you need to re-evaluate what you do with the positives that come your way. Because positives are out there.

When we are able to have a thankful attitude, when we appreciate what we have and not dwell on what we don’t have, our perspective on life will change. We will grow as individuals. Our lives will move in a positive direction.

The 21st of each month, is Thanksgiving in PL (Perfect Liberty) – Let us be thankful for all the blessings we have received this past month. Giving thanks, and showing appreciation, we move forward into tomorrow. Hearts open to unconditional love.

oh no!

Barbies 2.11.18 Always in for a challenge. I picked up two Barbies today, one had articulating arms the other articulating legs. I wanted the one doll to have the articulating limbs.

Barbies c 2.11.18 Did I know what I was doing? The simple answer is ..No..

Hmmm. thought to find something on YouTube. It could be there but so far, I have not found what I am looking for. Meanwhile, I now have two dismembered dolls. I did enjoy the exercise. However, I will have to put the parts away now till I find out what I need to do, from what I have seen so far, the gals who show restoration of Barbie type dolls, simply switch heads..

But then, they still have a doll that doesn’t articulate the way I want.. you get either the arms or the legs. Either or. I’ll just have to do some more research. Anyone out there, rebuilt a Barbie type doll?

I think that I am left with pieces that may not be re-useable. tsk tsk tsk.

If you never try something, you will never learn. Life is about learning, I will keep you posted. Tomorrow will be a brand new day. Here is wishing you all a smashing invigorating start to a new week. Keep it all together. =^_^= “rock on”

Rust on Canvas

rust on canvas 2.5.18

rust on canvas

1930’s

mixed media

abstract, acrylic, paste, recycled canvas, mega art stones, paint roller, textured Catalyst brushes by Princeton, layering, natural dry,

rust products by Art extra vagance, (Finnabair) made in Hungary

mega art stones -Finnabairn (art ingredients)

In the past I have used sludge from DeSerres (Tri Art) I spilled my last jar and have yet to replace it, so the above was done using alternate products found in my inventory.

rust supplies

To achieve a result, often requires more than one product, and when one ingredient is not available, if we are determined to get the result we are hoping for, we explore what is available, or easy access, and we experiment. It doesn’t matter if we succeed exactly as we had wanted what matters is that we do our best .. and try.

*** and *** that you are happy and cheerful while you are creating. Happiness is a state of mind. It is the journey that counts. When we are not open to every possibility around us at any given time, it could be a missed opportunity.

Seize the day, make it yours. Have a great start to a brand new week. Each day is a new canvas…Play, Explore, Live, take the initiative, be the first to smile and say hello.

Anticipation, taste sensations, nurturing of the body, Food, what is it with food, we can spend so much time deciding on what to eat, how to cook it, what will go with it, enhance it, and then for some of us, how much to eat of it.

Yet, when it comes to the health of our “mind/spirit” our day-to-day emotions, we allow others to influence and affect the “inner balance” of our personal “self”

PL calendar 3 . Use the power of your smile

A smile has the power to help people feel at ease, cheer them up, and at times, give them courage. Smile and spread your warm-hearted energy to the people around you.

Thursday doors 2.1.18

When you see a building off in the distance, you know you are going to get closer. No matter the weather or the road conditions on that day,

A simple structure, not sure what it is for, I wondered if it is decoration or for children to play in while the parents enjoy a coffee break.

When I found the door I was excited. Wow… it is all in the details.. rustic, charming, certainly a cheerful moment in an otherwise ho hum day .. (weather wise) My husband and I enjoy this park, in the summer, it is not over crowded, and the breeze from the water is always refreshing.

We didn’t get there last fall, due to circumstances beyond our control, so this was a very pleasant surprise. Put a door on something and all of a sudden, it becomes a much more interesting place.

PL calendar 1 – It is important to live in harmony with our surroundings.

This little house and door, fit into the landscape just beautifully. =^_^=

Maintain harmony in your lives, daily, harmony is the basis of a peaceful society.

Happy Monday

west end Munster 4

I confess to being a back road junky. I will take wrong turns or continue along a road, just because. I love to see the different landscapes, colours, building and whatever else cannot be seen while we are driving on a main road. Admittedly, I sometimes find myself on a country road that I had no intention of being on.. Usually that is when I find something that cries out to me.. Stop… come back, and I do. I pull over, there is little to no traffic, put on my emergency lights and get out.

west end Munster 1 In the summer or in other seasons where foliage and filled in landscapes, catch the eye, the buildings can go unnoticed. Not the other day, I stood on the empty road, and just took in the quiet, the different shades of blue/gray in the skies, and the personality of the building that once was.

west end Munster 6

west end Munster 5

Somehow the snow and the wisps of dried vegetation that poked out here and there, gave the building a charm, I don’t know would be there when the trees were in full bloom. Maybe in the fall with the autumn colours. Come September/October, if I remember, and IF I can find it again. I should check it out.

west end Munster 3

Time to find a main road, so that I can get back on track, do what needs doing and head home …

Today is a hospital day. Please keep us in your prayers, send positive, healing energy, we will hear today, what the doctors have put together for us.

Know that we appreciate all the kinds words, your thoughtful caring “presence” in our lives is truly a blessing.

Blessings be….

Friday greetings..

Miss Piggy tea pot VV

Miss Piggy waves hello.. a cheerful pot of tea, she is dropping in to wish you well, We have a bright sunny day here, milder temperatures too. I think I heard thunder rolling across the winter night sky in the early morning hours. Warmer air, passing over and pushing down on the colder air below.

Works for me. What ever you are doing, where ever you are going.. May the rays of positive energy bless your day today !!

Oyashikiri

You are loved, today and everyday!

and no, Miss Piggy did not follow me home.
