working in microsoft word in a vintage office seems weird at times
even to Beatrix Potter!
but that's okay

oh happy day!
It seems that I am starting out this fine day
with a clean desk.
oh course, by the time I get
the vintagewonderful treasure
surrounding me
...for inspiration...
not to worry, there is still
lots of room for creating
wonder what the space
will look like -
say, 6:00pm???
no telling - stay tune

My people who are call by My name
 humble themselves and pray,
and seek My face
 and turn from their wicked ways,
then I will hear from heaven,
will forgive their sin,
 and will heal their land.
2 Chronicles 7:14

***
may God Bless America
our families, our military
our leaders, our churches
and our friends
amen

everything is a mess in my creative space!!!

 projects everywhere!
 all different colors
 all in various stages of  magic
 in chairs, on tables, on boxes, on easels, on stools, hanging from hooks
 paint, glue, glitter, ink on me

 in stacks
waiting for attention

 tossed aside treasures
(although this vingette is pretty wonderful)
GOAL:
complete projects today

after summer fun & start of cooler weather?

with many vintage school supplies, books & reportcards
it's always fun to celebrate the magic of back to school

forty years ago
on labor day weekend
the beginning of a magical life together
Merlen & Boomboom before rehearsal dinner

a camelot wedding
teaching the torches to burn brightly
and now
what a blessed life
with the love of my life
oh, happy day!
love

a man who is his own man
is my love.
strong & proud & sure.
and now he's going to share
his life with me
forever
