Happy and Blessed Sunday to you!
"If you live long enough, you'll make mistakes. But if you learn from them, you'll be a better person. It's how you handle adversity, not how it affects you that matters. The main thing is never quit, never quit, never quit."
I guess we had a unique Independence Day celebration yesterday due to t…
I have been neglecting sharing the insights that I received from a friend...so...
Here are a few new ones!
"A real decision is measured by the fact that you've taken a new action. If there's no action, you haven't truly decided."
"The best efforts from others does not come from lighting a fire beneath them, but by building a fire within."
"One's destination is never a pl…
Is there light at the end of the tunnel?
"Since changes are going on anyway, the great thing is to learn enough about them so that we will be able to lay hold of them and turn them in the direction of our desires. Conditions and events are neither to be fled from nor passively acquiesced in; they are to be utilized and directed."
STILL STAYING HOME...STAYING SAFE!
"It is wisest and best to fix our attention on the beautiful and the good, and dwell as little as possible on the evil and the false."

GOOD THURSDAY MESSAGE!
"Confidence... thrives on honesty, on honor, on the sacredness of obligations, on faithful protection and on unselfish performance. Without them it cannot live."

FRIDAY'S WORDS
"We are never without the solutions to our problems. Its just that sometimes we have to remain peaceful and patient while we are waiting for the solution to become clear."
PUBLISHING IS LABOR INTENSIVE HARD WORK!
Okay! My Alphabet Garden Tour is published and available as a Kindle e-book!
I have spent the last few days working on the soft-cover edition of this. Wow...not an easy task. Amazon does provide resources to make this easier...but EVEN with that help, I've had to edit my set up and copy at le…
DID YOU MISS ME?
I've been a bit under the weather with some kind of virus (now healing). My studio is turned topsy-turvey while a new tile floor is being installed, so I have been kind of out of commission.
But, I'm back! Today, my kids book, My alphabet garden tour, is now live and available for purchase on…
THURSDAY!
"All of us are born for a reason, but all of us don't discover why. Success in life has nothing to do with what you gain in life or accomplish for yourself. It's what you do for others."
Are you ready for the weekend yet?
We sure are...weather will not be too fine tonight and early tomorrow mo…
IT'S SATURDAY! HOPE YOU HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND!
So today we've got two quotes. Thank you to Vickie Benjaminson for sharing these with us every day.
"When we live as our authentic selves, decisions become easier because we aren't concerned with what others think of us--rather, we're concerned that we're doing right or wrong, and we …
NOT SO MANIC MONDAY!
"Your present circumstances don't determine where you can go; they merely determine where you start."
Yes! And don't you forget it! Starting today, let it go and let it flow...every day can be a brand new chapter of a better life!
FRIDAY!
"If you have the chance to make people happy, just do it. Sometimes people are struggling silently. Maybe, your act of kindness can make their day."
Hoping you have a great day and spectacular weekend!
WEDNESDAY!
"The mindless junk of your past crowds out opportunities and sets pointless limitations. Move out the junk, and you create room for the rest of your life. Ultimately, it's not just a question of tidying your house; it's a question of liberating your heart."
My Alphabet Garden Tour is now availabl…
AMAZON
I now have a presence on Amazon! My Alphabet Garden Tour is not published up there yet...but soon, I hope. Meantime some of my art is available and I will be adding some other products!
MORE WISE WORDS TO START YOUR MONDAY!
"Ordinary people believe only in the possible. Extraordinary people visualize not what is possible or probable, but rather what is impossible. And by visualizing the impossible, they begin to see it as possible."
That fits every artist, no matter what medium or tools they use!
Have a splendid …
HOW FAST TIME FLIES!
New year, new work! I've been so very busy reworking my kids alphabet book. My publisher just disappeared and left all their authors in the lurch!!
