Musings with artistic twist..............

Sometimes I just don't want to do a thing........

I know that I need to get something done.....and I have some good excuses racked up. I am eight months pregnant. It is very grey outside and sorta' warm in the house. Ooops, thought the word house--it needs some love right now. Mind numbing love, such as folding some laundry, making a bed or two and some dishes. Sometimes people don't understand how boring it is to clean (or maybe they do and procrastinate on it:). So what is my plan of attack for mind numbing love of the house and to break out of my funk????
MY TIMER!!!! Oh yeah, the world can be conquered in 15 minute increments! I am not kidding--I set my timer and grumble (but I know that 15 minutes isn't too long) and drag a towel to the towel bar...and so on. At the end of 15 minutes I am laughing that my whole room is done and I am already in the kids room. Time for round two..........you get it, the timer is the master of breaking through that mental pattern!!! Hopefully this is a message of hope to someone out there!

Time....it goes so fast

I will just write this tomorrow....and then tomorrow turns into a week. Where is the direction that my soul is taking? Do I have the luxury of wastefulness? I guess I have already done that for a million lifetimes. Now I see the power of the present moment....what do I chose NOW. Not tomorrow, not in a week---do I want to love God? Do I want to Serve or be served?...................oh not that question, can I just answer that in another lifetime? hah.
In the end we must want Love more than anything and beg..........and beg, for some mercy from one who really has it! Be a master in hell or begin to serve in heaven.

Christmas Cookie Madness

Ok, these pics are from Christmas! But...... this is a celebration post---because I am finally able to load photos on my blog!!!! This will be the beginning of documenting the insane projects that my sister-in-law and I start after 10p.m. We finished baking an amazing array of at about 2 a.m........ now we did have some excellent excuses on why this happened, such as the birth of my nephew and work and blah, blah, blah....... or are we the domestic adrenaline junkies?! lol........

Paralyzed by perfection.....

I think that in thinking of the perfect blog post I become paralyzed and therefore cannot possibly put down put anything down!!! lol...... this seems to be a block that a lot of us share!! Progress not perfection is such a good affirmation for me!
