Do you ever notice how quickly time can speed by sometimes…. I can hardly believe that we’re better than halfway through January 2012!

 It seems like I haven’t gotten much done… kind of like I’m slipping backwards… yes there are promises to myself to get this job done or that one, but I don’t seem to get them to them… and forever the promise to do it tomorrow.

What has caused this scenario to occur… I haven’t the foggiest idea!

 I have some half finished projects and some things that have to be done so others can do their work… but I’m not sure why I’m stuck.

 I think that’s something I have to work on… I know what I should do is write it down and then I can keep track of everything… but sometimes I just can’t even bring myself to the part where I even want to write everything down….

I’m feeling kind of discombobulated… I like that word….

 I just want to do what I want to do with no explanations to anyone… no concerns about anything…. just do the whole thing my way…. and have the world revolve around what I decide to do always….

mmmm would be nice to just have things that way…. but I have responsibilities that have to be taken care of….

but I would certainly prefer being out somewhere without any deadlines….

 playing in the warm sunshine…. just having fun…

 exploring the world… looking for rocks on a beach…

seeing what treasures the world has seen fit to bring me from the deep….

not a cloud in the sky…

 the warm salty spray of the ocean lapping against the rocks….

 but since I’m not…

guess I’ll go and listen to a lecture about the Hamilton Escarpment and the last Ice Age in Ontario…

how fitting for a winter day in Ontario…. I promise next week…. I’ll organize my time better!!!!!

Have a great week… and yep I know sometimes we do have to take things easy…. there are reasons  why I’m at this stage right now….

 and so I won’t worry about it too much…

Happy New Year to One and All…. may your fondest dreams come true in such an auspicious year.

I had a couple of weeks of down time to celebrate the season with my family and to spend some time doing my own thing…. mostly relaxing from a very busy year. There were shows and adventures… making sure my children are following their hearts to their own dreams. It’s so cool to watch your children finally choose their way of life and how to find their own path. To see them invest in their futures on their terms is simply amazing. I can hardly believe how happy it makes me.

The new body of work is something I’ve just begun over the past few days… it’s my interpretation of what I feel are the vibrations of life. I’m quite excited about the outcome and I believe it will really free my artistic expression. I know any new method of painting I try only serves to enhance my landscapes. I just feel far more passionate about my career and the possibilities I can create with other people. The opportunities seem to open up more and more all the time. I venture out into larger shows and more fulfilling experiences whenever I allow my art to open up my heart and soul.

Life promises to be more amazing than ever and much more gratifying this year…. I am so excited with the direction my world is taking.

Hope everyone has an awesome week… keep your dreams alive and never stop believing in what you can make your world become, simply by being you and leading with your heart.
