Disco Monday aka Wednesday
arriving for some disco
the clan start to gather
the fun began
at Pacifique (SL) the music, the atmosphere, the friends,
a musical interlude, a nice way to end the day.
Ok that was how I ended my day, but the start was just as great. We drove out to visit with our new whippet, here she is spending some time with her soon to be brother. Who is being as aloof and distant as he can be. Real party poop.
Meet Keeper, she is 5 years old.
OK she saying, I’ve done my few minutes with big brother, now let’s do something else. She is a sweetheart, can’t wait for her to be home with us full-time.
There is room in a day to do a lot of things, attend to what needs doing, resting, and having some “chill” time.

wandering
sometimes,
we wander to the right
but get tempted to venture
to the left
sometimes
we wander right into the fire
where there is nothing to do
but close our eyes
nice and tight
till our thoughts
wander back into the light
only we ourselves can define our reality
PL Precept #11 Always be with God
wherever you wander,
you are NEVER alone

Travel safe my friend – goodbye
Lizzie was an artist with a thirst to create, not just anything, everything she did was alive and vivid, just like her. Her creativity knew no bounds. When she first was told she had cancer, she said, OK, let’s deal with this.. and did what she needed to do, she beat the odds. Once, twice, the little vixen fought her way to live another day.
This last fight, she grew weary. She laid down her brush, with the quiet dignity of the true diva she was, she spread her wings and took flight beyond the heavens into the “night”..
We will miss you Liz, your energy and spirit, a diva warrior like no other, will forever glow in our hearts. Rest in peace.

late night visitors
Good morning…. Bom dia, Obviously the playground I posted pictures of the other day, stayed with me.
Remember this… There is something playful about the design, I’m not usually drawn to bugs and the like. Yet last night I found myself playing with the liquid acrylics and delighting in watching the shapes take shape.
If asked to do something whimsical, I would be hard pressed to come up with something, I consider myself to be more abstract.
Oh dear am I in a philosophical mood today, let me see.. today is the 14th. hmmm Hearts and Flowers day. I can show you my totally not dry yet heart, cuz I’m trying a new medium that takes forever to dry, like 72 hours or more before it is totally dry and finished reacting with itself. Oh dear I can smell it, but don’t see it, where did I put it..
Sorry I didn’t crop the picture, just snapped it with the handy iPhone. That black stuff is something I got yesterday, now I know why the gal suggested I might prefer clear or a white. It supposedly contains the liquid medium. They tell us not to marry up with your first impression of what you do cuz as it reacts with itself, what you see will change.
There is a mixture that is very liquid, called Vitrail (pebeo) one that is ceramic, one called Fantasy Moon, and one other in the Fantasy line called Prismo. When mixed together they all have their own way of interacting with the other.. In theory if you know what you are doing, you can create wonderful fantasy pieces.
I am very new to this product, days if that.. AND no one I know uses it.. so it is a trial and error process. That black I got yesterday and is called relief outliner. All this to say, Good Morning, how are you.. I’m doing fine.
Today’s PL calendar (if you need one, contact me) says… Work Happily with Good Rhythm can you hear me humming =^_^=
Here we go, romantic picture, dancing in the Universe, carefree and happy. I wish each and every one of you, a day filled with love and appreciation.
Never give up on your dreams, always remember that each moment is a lifetime, live NOW
PL Precept #1 Life is Art
We really are so blessed that we have the creative ability in each and every one of us to be ONE with the Universe…. always & forever…

to not only ring in the new
but to be with family and friends
who like me,
value and love you.
PL Precept # 1 Life is ART

snow- start to the week
Getting around wasn’t easy for some today, the snow started last night, and kept falling well into the day. City crews did their best to ensure that the main highways were cleared, but it was made clear, side streets would not be cleared till after the afternoon drive home rush hours.
On the six o’clock news they showed one enterprising young man, Xross-country skiing into work. I recall one year when I snow- shoed in =^_^= I didn’t have to go out today, but I wanted to take advantage of the weather and attend a sale, that is usually impossible to get close to, especially if you want to park your vehicle, in my case, a big truck.
I was right, traffic was light, it was mid morning, and I had plenty of room to park. My day went very well, I found some great “deals” and enjoyed being out in the brisk snow filled air. Sure one had to drive slowly and with care, but we should be doing that at all time anyway. I was able to get some shopping in without a lot of fuss, and get home at a decent hour.
The PL philosophy is that if you start your day with a positive attitude, and a sincere appreciation for the weather and the world around you, your chances of having a full and productive day are very good.
PL Precept #15 all is a mirror
PL Principle # 2 I will not have complaints about others, matters, nor the weather. Rather I will always be creative and will for shortcomings in my own thinking and actions.
PL Principle # 3 I will live with a mind of appreciation towards others and things.
oh no!
Oh NO! the snowman exclaimed
I’ve lost my head again
As onlookers turned away
and shoppers kept rushing by
All he could do was gasp and horror
as he saw his nose fall to the ground
all around as the day wore on
people came and went on their way
not once did anyone notice
that the little snowman
was having a difficult day
the fresh snow on the ground
made the parks so merry and gay
there was a shop down the lane
that if only someone would stop
he could tell them the way to find his friends
he knew his friends would come
help him put his head on again 
with a sigh of relief,
he saw his friends coming his way
oh joy, oh happy day!
you’ve come just in time
somehow my head fell off
and I’ve been at a total loss
I closed my eyes, and wished and prayed
and now….!!!! joy oh joy…!!!
I can stand tall and proud again
his nose and smile back in place
he was ready to smile out at the world again.
Life can get very busy, especially at this time of year. We rush from one chore to another, our mind always on the task at hand. While this is good, being efficient is always a positive, however, take time this year, to make time for your inner self, and for the friends around you who may not have the same holiday cheer you are enjoying.
Often someone really very close by or near to you can be having a difficult time. We fail to hear the silent plea not because we don’t care, but because in our “busy” mode, we don’t hear the world around us, we are running on remote control.
PL Precept #7 Everything exists in Relativity
PL Principle # 4 I will live with the spirit of Misasage (Devotion) working for the happiness of others.
PL Precept # 11 Always be with God
you are invited to join me
I am having a special party, and YOU are invited..I will be off on my broom
on the actual day of the new moon
I’ve been planning the menu for weeks
ohhhh it will be a special feast
long forgotten friends have been sought out
so you will not need to fret
help will be on hand
to welcome you in
walk up to the front door
don’t be shy, come right on in
I did do my best to get to all the rooms
but, perhaps, you shouldn’t wander too far
from the main rooms
yes on second thought
youy may want to refrain from opening closed doors
feel free to use the spa
should you need a quick fix
dinner will be served around six
I’ll do my best to sit with you
although it could get complex
I might need some time to dress
ignore the baby should he scream
after all, this is only a dream
see you on my return…. have fun, enjoy everyday!

It is the start of a new month. A new beginning. In PL (Perfect LIberty) on the 1st of each month we have a ceremony, we pray for World Peace and rededicate ourselves to live as peaceful human beings in our own worlds. That means anywhere we are “present”
PL Principle #21 I will live with the spirit of “Misasage” (devotion) working for the happiness of others.
PL precept #10 Love yourself and Others
When I feel one thing, and do another, then I am not being true to myself or to the person or situation I am interacting with. It is not always easy to think before we speak, and, unfortunately, once the words leave our mouths, they can’t easily be taken back.
Let us begin this month, with a prayer in our hearts that extends out to all whose lives we touch. Let us work towards acceptance and understanding when we are faced with something that is unfamiliar to us, or not in our comfort zone. In the end, we may decide that we simply will have to agree to disagree, but at least, we listened to the option. BEFORE making our decision, (choices)
PL Precept #20 Live maintaining equilibrium between mind and matter
at the end of the day,
we have to make peace
with ourSelves
Peace
begins
within
