It's time for bed

I am so sleepy it isn't even funny. I want so much to make progress on all my sites, but I just can't do it! I need to get to bed, the baby is still awake!?!? What now? Okay, that's it, definitely time for sleep. Hope everyone is having a wonderful night and gets some good sleep!

Take care all, and sweet dreams!

Searching for Inspiration

In a place where there is primarily stress and frustration, it is hard to visualize yourself anywhere but being smothered by your circumstance. I am taking baby steps to attempt to break out of the nastiness that is my mood. Look out magazines, I am armed with my scissors and I'm not afraid to use them. Be it a recipe, photograph, great article, silly drawing, I'm clippin' it, and it is getting filed for later use.

Moving along

Took some time today to get more of my recipe/cooking blog underway. Finally feel like that has taken an upward turn since it's creation. Cooked a little today trying to get back some of the creative culinary mojo back. Griped about how MESSED UP people can be, and how they can be so blatantly blind to it. I am saddened that these are my people! And as much as I can, and have tried, to remedy what little of the situation I possibly can, ultimately it is not up to me to fix the problems of these poor people. I have no idea where the "give up" line is or should be drawn. But I remain, even if only for support after all, it's what we do. My hope is that someone comes to their senses before it is too late.

Wishing everyone peace and serenity!

When now is just not fast enough..

Sometimes, for just a little peace, some serenity, some calm.. even to get it right this very moment, seems an eternity to have to wait. It can come exactly when you ask for it.. but it some how feels you've been waiting forever and even when it does become available, for some reason I find I am so wound up in whatever the stress and tension is, that I can't even enjoy it until the moment is almost gone! I wish there was a wand to just *POOF* whatever the problem is away. Not necessarily forever, just so I can gather myself for those precious few mirco-moments to FEEL BETTER! To be better equipped to handle whatever the current situation. I guess, for some people, they call those BLACKOUT moments, where do I sign up for this? Because if I have a blackout moment, it's one of anger, rage, and out right fury. I don't need this. I want micro-euphoria moments.

Someone help me make it happen!

A Little Rain Must Fall..

As true with anything, a little rain must fall. I slept well last night once the rain started. It was so nice, the sound of rain is peaceful and soothing. A sound we don't get much of here in sunny southern California. Walking out to the car while the clouds were sprinkling droplets over everything was a pleasant change of pace. The lake building on the road right in front of our home is slightly disturbing. But hopefully, this will be a good opportunity to paint my "newly" makeshift computer/creative niche. About to begin painting, as a break to the desperately needed cleaning and redecorating that's been taking place.

More updates soon..

Little Things..

Sometimes life is just overwhelming! Too many things to do, too little time. I completely missed the end of last year and have been completely unaware of this new year that is already going on month 2! It seems to me that it is time for a change. More bubble baths, painted my nails AND toenails.. imagine that?! Thanks to kindness of our friends our home has been given a little bit of a new look and feel. Slowly, with some of these little changes, things are starting to feel a little more OURS. Off to a very rocky start this year, let us hope it moves up from here!

Regards!
