Sometimes the only way to get someone to tell their story is to share yours first.
Under the witnessing of current events and behaviors of upside down worlds as well as legal counsel, I declare that the entire contents and attachments of any and all of my writings are for the purposes of personal entertainment, and that I do not vouch for the veracity of the content although the intention is believably my interpretation of discovered facts of reference. Furthermore, as a constantly evolving and growing individual seeking truth and knowledge avidly, I in no way waive any and all of my rights as a free citizen of the world to express such thoughts aloud. I look for information to change my mind, and in current state, I share my mind.
I share what I know and live.
Also, any individual, group, agency, government or any other entity, may not use any content or images posted by me for any other purpose than personal entertainment must not be granted. When I researched this, it was recommended you post it so that in the future, if someone takes what you posted and twists it or changes it but keeps pieces of it true, you could be incriminated falsely. Bums me out but because of this, I have to say it basically means there is no permission to use any of my images, blogs, profiles, or any of my stories in any form and if done so, it will be considered a violation of my privacy and would be subject to legal action. (That’s pretty cool). Any and all of the images, links and referenced sites I use in my stories are assumed to be in the public domain. My stories are of my own thoughts and ideas based on experiences, conversations and awareness which I express as a personal hobby writing enthusiast. Story sharing and truths are the path to self discovery and growing in grace. And I make Bath Bombs. Thank you!

Finding decorations that make perfect plant holders makes finding purpose with plants such as fun activity that I encourage others to try, or just buy 🙂
I want to prove you can have the same, actually - better - experience with a product and pay less for it while I create little joys. How did I get here? I've been like millions of others, diving into old school recipes to bypass the toxic grift and be healthier, wealthier and wiser. I keep making natural stuff I love or my children’s children love and make them so they aren’t harmful to you. Here’s what I’ve enjoyed about the process to confidently offer anyone and everyone who also like these experiences. I’m awake now and I realize it’s time to figure out how to have today’s pampering with yesterday’s ingredients. At first, I just wanted to see if…
Finding your things or letting things find you, the more open you are to realizing how all our stories intertwined through experience makes us all better in finding our purpose
If you enjoy country music like I do, you’re probably familiar with a song that just turned 20 years old by Sara Evans Called Suds in the Bucket. It went to #1 back then in top played song. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=06o-EYH9svs I heard it on the way to Costco this morning, after staying up last night with the hubs because we agreed neither of us remember seeing St. Elmo’s Fire as kids so let’s see what we recall and if it holds up. (Foreshadowing hint, it didn’t :/) The song and movie connect and add flavor to my week of positive reflection. I can sing along to Suds in a Bucket just like I can get me some Fancy and Walkaway Joe…
Sometimes the wish for a response can help you find create ways to reach out to those who are important to you
Ahhhhhhhh Happy Thanksgiving to every American in every way! I was thinking. I can't recall the last time I was at my home on Thanksgiving. This has to be the first time. Now, I know there's been years I woke up in my bed on Thanksgiving, put a dish or two together and headed out to another invited gathering of cool people I want to break bread with. I'm waiting for my kids to read this and remind me of that one time.... pretty sure not though. Yet this year, it's here. We aren't going anywhere and are making the core of the meal. The gathering will be six of us with four stopping in after on their dinner trek…
My take on college recruitment advertising patterns and which ones will work
The journey to spreading love and joy to others in artful repurposed ways continues for me. You're welcome. haha. All kidding aside, I reflect alot on what I'm drawn to and what I create to understand myself better. Similar to painting Sasquatch fun paintings and dissecting that, I truly enjoy making prayer candles out of thrifted shot glasses and making Jesus mirrors and wall out out of really cool frames and mirrors I find while on the shot glass hunt. It all came together for me! The Grace Collection. Over the years I've played with frames and mirrors for glass art, when it hit me that tying in the message of shot glasses could bring them to another level. Plus…
About ten years ago, with Christmas quickly ahead of us, my husband made the decision that Santa was not getting the credit for big ticket items any more. He simply decided he didn't care what other people think. We worked really hard to be able to afford that our two sons received their biggest wish of all - A Nintendo DS - and doggone it, they're going to be from us. He went on to explain that all the little stuff and stockings and what not can be from some guy named Santa but he wanted them to know we provided those Nintendo DS's. Yikes. I was nervous about his ask yet open to a further discussion. I agreed with…
Apparently most of the people in my life, that's who. Rough outline of the journey up Now. We get it. Pretty cool up north. You gotta see it yourself. Pictures don't explain that this is really what clear water can look like. I've seen similar in Cozumel but not that calm, and I wasn't dozens of feet above it in a boat still seeing the clear bottom. My goodness. The awakened me of course says, please dear God don't let us eff this one up with pollution too. If we haven't already. Please. What beauty. We heard and verified online that Lake Superior is so full of natural water for the globe, that if you spilled it out, it would…
I am not sure if I had any type of epiphany, but the thinking within myself propelled me to put down my paintbrush and start writing it down before it escapes my ever fleeting brain streaming. Had to hard save it I guess. I was thinking of activism and the cultural laws we follow as a society. Perhaps its at that core of the issue that we indeed find a way for majority care is some of the most disparate, horrific and tucked away behaviors that lead and have led to generations of inhumane torture of the mind, soul and body. Could this be it?! Let me roll. At first, I was going to dive in by showing pictures of…
About a year or more ago, I realized I wasn’t showing gratitude to God as well as I was for a while and that perhaps that was the reason I was so miserable at work and regressing back into stress health issues. It hit me square in the face like, duh! I bought a traditional prayer candle and kept it front and center in my kitchen, which is open to the living room and where I spend most of my home time. It reminded me every time I was home that I needed to light it and say something. Anything. It made a difference. It brought me back into a regular, casual relationship with God that I thought I already…
