My favorite woman from our Merge art box.

She looks so calm and gentle.

Like you could sit across the weathered
round table from her

in a green kitchen on her farm.

Homemade coffee cake and coffee

and tell her about it.

She would listen and

you would know it's all going to be ok.

44 souls plus 1.

The horse to carry away

the heaviness.

 Over my lunch adventure.  Our lunch.  Our adventure rather.

Angel Of Gentle Spirit Companion For Your Uphill Climb

This is just a little part of the piece.  But it's the best part.

Now I know someone will say "you should not have glued

the doodads on there.  You should have just left it be."

But that, my Friends, is the beauty of making your own art.  HA!!!

Plodding along on a mossy dappled sun feather path.

A good gig when you think about it.

These will be cards eventually too.  

So you could send someone a rest card.

Among the wild roses.

This is about peace as you go on your way.

On alfalfa.

One of my favorite things.

Hide and seek with our German Shepherd Snoopy.

Secret place in the hay loft in the barn with that

Native American looking patterned old wallpaper.

New kittens.

The scent of fresh cut hay.

It is the smell of summer and nothing wrong.

Like that.

Angel that guards against static.

No static at all.

A long week.  You know?  I know you know.

Anyway this is a lean on me photo op for sure.

Jenny gave me that little man.  He came to her

on the beach.  A fine companion indeed.

So cheery all the time.  That's all.

Bring a few flowers in before they go and the next arrive.

I thought a lot about perspective this week.

What a difference a day can make.

How my story is not the same as yours but we 

knew that in the beginning I suppose.

Do you ever think about how you would LIVE your life

if you were in the home stretch?  I mean if you were

close to heaven what you would do?  Peace to make.

Loving to do.  Kindness to spread.  Forgive yourself.  I'm walking

the Avon 39 in June.  One of the best things I will ever do.

One of the best ways to be a walking prayer.

One of the best ways to LIVE.
