Bits and Pieces

 
 

I can - and often do - wander happily through blogland for hours. Bloggers are an incrediably generous group, sharing ideas and inspiration. This journal page combines sparks generated by two talented women, E.B. and Hanna.

E.B. sparked the idea of transformation. Life changes each second and you never quite know what's coming at you next. (Thank God!) So along with the obvious change of going back to work, other "stuff" made their presences known. For awhile, it pretty much knocked the oomph out of me, but life marches on, so I had better as well! I can truthfully say that I'm in a better spot than when I cerated this page. So, transfomation...making changes, adapting, and moving on. I think I'm nearly ready now to let go of summer and move into fall. This page underwent numerous transformations as I worked through "stuff." It ended up far better than it started, as did I. The changes all resulted in something beautiful, don't you think?

Hanna sparked the blue .  As with E.B., I so look forward to Hanna's posts and am quite disappoined when there's a bit of a lull. I understand the why's 'cause heaven knows I've had quite a few blog lulls lately, but....well, I just keep checking back until a new post is up. Hanna loves to play with color, and she always inspires.

We had a great day today - the farmers' market, Anthropologie and the Paper Source, Barnes & Noble, lunch in a little cafe, and a trip to the stamp store. Then came the great chase. Our Aussie, WhoDey, managed to escape the back yard fence. After 15 or so heart stopping moments, we located him. WhoDey, however, had tasted freedom, and quite enjoyed a game of "chase me if you want me." All's well that ends well, and the gate has been tightened and equipped with one heck of a lock.

Heading to PA tomorrow to see my dad, and then, work officially begins on Monday.

Love the blue you've got going on this page, and the layers you see through. Yum! I'm sorry for being in a lull, hehe, but you was too! :-P Let's get into it now that summer is over, shall we? Take care!
