Pattie Speaks: tempting thursday

Extraordinary people survive under the most terrible circumstances and they become more extraordinary because of it.

~ Robertson Davies

I will get back to ‘I love today’ soon … lately, I am so in love with everything … the list would be LONG … xo

Tid bits from the homefront:

Taylor and Caleb depart Saturday on their cross-country trip to Alaska. The past six months have flown by … I know they will have a great adventure. I’m going to miss them, for sure, though I am so excited for them.

Yikes … moving stuff … I think I keep hoping the fairies will come in the night and move all my stuff and set it up just how I have it in my mind. No, I’m not nuts – I know this isn’t going to happen. Just wishing.

I FINISHED … yeah … Lights in the Distance is ready to be sent off to the Art House Project. I am very happy with it …

Now on to the moving. The past few months have been filled with 20 hour work days … crazy … good crazy. Now I am ready to get moved in, and relax a bit … working in my garden, hanging with my friends, walking with my puppy … reading reading reading. Oh … and I also must find myself a job …

Life is good. Grateful grateful …

And … let’s remember … Give-a-Way Wednesday:

PatriciaA Wearable Art for your puppy … a leash made with love and positive, happy energy. Please leave me a comment below with the perfect word that describes your dog or cat or iguana or … your pet … drawing next Tuesday, May 17^th at noon.

If life does truly begin on the other side of despair … I think I made it … it is quite lovely on this side. It has been an interesting road … soon I will share more.

Problems are not stop signs, they are guidelines.
