Happy It's Friday!

 Still working late but trying to take

 peaceful moments to sit quietly

and even do a little bit of layered play in my journal.

I just love to do this...

And though I am putting in the long 

September teacher-hours, 

I am so much more at ease than last year.

And the sunrises lately! Wow!

Autumn is truly coming in with all it's glory.

Yesterday the blue sky had streaks of pale pink,

then was brushed with swishes of wispy white.

This morning, fog filtered and muted the yellow 

and grays of the early morning.

Happy Friday, friends!

Do something you love,

find beauty around you,

and smile.

with love,

Journaling

Catching a few moments every now and then 

to work toward completing a whole page.

Writing about filling up with gratitude

 and keeping the faith...

trusting...

as each layer in this collage 

just kept getting interrupted by .. life.

I thank you for visiting.

That Red Rose

I needed a simple collage

today

to even out the clutter in my brain.

It felt wonderful to touch beautiful papers

and smudge a giant glue stick. 

Then,

the task of writing focuses my brain,

clarifies my thoughts,

and brings me

centered into the moment.

aaah.

On Journal Writing

Maybe it's not just this day

it's every day

on a page
