  • Still Behind / James’ Food

    Well, I’ve been back for a month and the promises I made here have not come to fruition. I thought I’d catch up quickly on my return and that just hasn’t happened.

  • Book Review: Collage Lab

    I enjoy the topic of collage, and check out every book I can on it. Having read so many of these, I’m in a good position to point out a good one. And I give this new volume five stars.

  • New Poem by Me: Thanksgiving 2009

    Thanksgiving 2009 I’m thankful for God, infinite, ever-present, all-powerful good who wanted me, made me and actually loves me. I’m thankful for my husband and children, my family and friends and that we are safe, and happy and healthy. I’m thankful for eyes to see with, ears to hear with, fingers to touch with a mouth to talk with, and […]
  • Discouraged About Not Getting Enough Creative Time?

    I have a homeschooling friend that is frustrated.  She said recently , “I don’t have enough creative time for me.”  She is overwhelmed with responsibility, obligation, and admirable personal goals, but meanwhile, she’s running dry.  This is not an unusual thing from what I hear over my spiritual healing practice line.  The “shoulds” take over and where is the delight […]
