I received in the mail a beautiful crewel embroidered stone from Pat, and it occurred to me that I have amassed quite a wonderful collection of stones. The green ones I got a while back from Small Stump. The grey ones were made from old recycled sweaters by Melinda. I got the crocheted rock from Molly [...]

sacred things

I can’t say for certain how or when my life view changed. Maybe it happened as I started journaling life via the blog, or looking through the lens of my camera. Maybe it even started many years ago as I rocked a sleepy child to bed, or took note of the nurturing beauty in a home [...]

At least from my personal point of view. I could make this post all polite and say that these are some of my favorite things at the moment. But I’ve pledged to be authentic, and these are things I WANT!! I’m making out MY Christmas list, throwing all caution and crappy economy to the wind. You know you want to do [...]

Came across this today and not for the first time in my life I wanted to be a man. Don’t be alarmed, I love being a woman. I also know that women have the superpowers of bearing children, producing milk, being smarter, talking a lot, picking out a bargain from across a crowded store, asking [...]

I have featured Elin Thomas here before. Today I’m devoting an entire post to this gal’s brilliance. She is an artist and jewelry maker from the UK. I’m head over heels in love with her work. More than likely because she utilizes my most favorite materials and processes and colors. What she does with those things leave [...]
I'm a human being, sometimes fumbling through life, but more often amazed by the great glorious adventure that it is. If you want labels - I'm a stay at home mom, a tree hugger, a tightwad, a wife, a nerd, a jogger, a bookworm, a creative soul, a pretty good cook, a beloved child of God, an avid hobby photographer, a person who likes to dip her toes into all that life has to offer. In fact you might find that we have a lot in common, and that labels don't really explain the complexity of human beings.
Thanks for visiting me, I always love to hear from you! You can also email me at b(dot)jackie79(at)yahoo(dot)com
