Around

Images from my summer

It has been so long since I blogged. I was feeling the Jewish guilt about it as I started this post. But I have decided that guilt is an unnecessary emotion in my life, and is taking up emotional space that could be better devoted to other emotions. I will spare you a list ;)

I realized that one of the reasons for the gaps is because I get so sidetracked by the MORE that I want to be involved in. Someone gave me that word one time...about the MORE that was in me. In my mind, that means neatly separated into boxes with labels, to be taken out and enjoyed one at a time.  Art, cooking, music, creativity. 

BUT I have realized that it is really supposed to be drippy and running together like the painting at the end of A Thomas Crown Affair. Smeared and messy and deliciously mixed up and dripping all over my life. Do you know the clip I refer to?

For your viewing pleasure:
The best 6:39 of movie viewing ever.

 

Anyway...here is to the exploration of that realization....

Happy Thursday.

Awesome

The LORD is good to everyone. 

He showers compassion on all His creation. 

Psalm 145:9

Casual Sketching

One of my favorite blogs is Liz Steel's which you can see here.

She is about to go on a trip for a few weeks and is planning to take 8 sketchbooks. EIGHT! I am pretty sure my whole life I am barely over the eight sketchbook mark. Unbelievable.

Less internet surfing...more sketching. That's what I say.
