Day 2

"I´m gonna make a change,
For once in my life
It´s gonna feel real good
Gonna make a difference
Gonna make it right
I'm starting with the man in the mirror"

Micheal Jackson

SAVOR -- that's my word for 2008. Life seems to be happening so quick -- an endless list of To Dos. It seems like only yesterday my sweetest was a newborn and the youngest only a twinkle in daddy's eye.....I want to slow down, breath in the fresh air and delight in my life -- from kisses on chubby cheeks, quiet time with Dad, to pride in my art. Life races by -- savor the moment.

OVERWHELMED -- that's my word for today. Not very positive, not very uplifting, but real. I have so much To Do -- finances to organize, unfinished projects to complete, a house that is still largely undecorated (after 5 years!), a craft room that is a disaster area, it goes on and on. It's a weight on my shoulders, on my soul. I do my best to declutter, to purge, to organize, to simplify, to beautify -- but it comes hard, just not a part of my nature. But I keep plugging on, making my lists, crossing off some items while ignoring others altogether. I remind myself: "After all ... tomorrow is another day." --Scarlett


Twitterings: I'm fairly pleased with the picture, although I wish it wasn't so blurry, but it's the best I could get being hand-held with no flash. I used to love to look at the long column of MEs in the bathroom mirror as kid -- who on earth knows why??
