Animal Wednesday (My Boys)

It is hard to do a post about my boys and not include my Mr.B, but we have to start sometime.

It has been a month and a half since he passed, but we still miss him very much. The first photo is one of Spike and Max, being lovely, the bottom photo is my dog, Zeus trying to eat dinner and my cat max stealing food from him. This happens everyday! Zeus is such a sweet old dog, he lets him get away with it! Happy Wednesday everyone! XOXO

Animal Love

I thought it was time to share some photos of my beautiful animal boys. First up are

Spike and Max, sleeping so sweetly together, the next two are Mr.B and Spike involved in synchronized sleeping :-). Last, but never least is my wonderful dog Zeus after a short run.

I promise a real post soon! Happy Monday. XOXO

Life

This is a photo of 3 of my boys on their couch. Me, I am

well trained and never go near the couch :-). A lot has

happened for me this week. Many trials and things I would

rather not have occurred, but they did and now that I am on

the other side, I see that just as I suspect, things happen for

a reason. I respect that many of you do not believe that, but

in my life, for me, it is a powerful truth. Through events of

the week I now have a huge fire burning under me to make

my dream of doing art and writing full time a reality. I can't

go into the details because some of the people involved read

my blog, but I will say it was a hurtful thing. The good part is

that I am on the up side of things and I feel better than ever.

I have a question to ask all of you. I have a bunch of older

paintings, in a style I no longer do, that I would love to sell,

for much cheaper than my new work. Would any of you be

interested in seeing this work? If so let me know in comments

and I will post one from time to time. Have a wonderful Tuesday.

Moments in time.

I captured this rare photo of all four of my boys at once!

This never happens :-).

I wanted to share with all of you something I read in "The

New Earth" by Eckhart Tolle, just in case you are not

reading it (isn't everyone reading it? :-). He talks about

how to know what your purpose in life is and he says that

your purpose is whatever you happen to be doing in this

moment. So if you are reading a book, that is your purpose.

If you are driving your car, that is your purpose. This little

bit of information has helped me so much in living in the now.

I remember to ask myself what my purpose is and it pulls

me right into this moment. It is a great tool. There is more

to it of course, but this little bit has proved very helpful to

me and I thought you might find it useful too. Have a

magical Monday :-).
