Thursday Stop By

Wanted to share my Note from the Universe this morning...... just because:


"There is perhaps no more empowering belief, Marlynn, than understanding you're always in control of how you feel. 

Similarly, understanding that just because you're not always skipping through tulips with joy doesn't mean that something's wrong with you. 

You rock,
    The Universe


PS: Because, Marlynn, nothing has ever, ever, ever been wrong with you. Lots of grown-ups still like animal crackers."
 
Yup, that is my Universe! WhooHooo.  

Getting ready to go and play tennis tonight but wanted to show you one of my "Ah Ha" moments while cleaning off my coffee table.  Found a strip of music from the music book I am using for my ATC card exchange and I happened to lay it on the Lost Chord (yes, I named it) book,


Not sure where we are headed with it but I'm loving it. 



 Also got a new iPhone cover......


Loved the Great Gatsby and it is one of those stories from my younger days that all I can do is "giggle" remembering a Great Gatsby Party I went to once upon a time....nuh said...Enjoy your  Friday tomorrow! Hugs to all and to all a good evening doing whatever you are doing.

Puttering Around


Good Afternoon on this Super Bowl Sunday.  Wanted to stop by and say hello my honeysuckle peeps. I have been busy and having a lot great days.  Loving my boxing cardio exercise on Tuesday evenings,


my tennis on Thursday evenings, and my two workouts with my trainer the other days.  Today has been a lazy Sunday.

Was able to finish a cover for my upcoming "next" creation first mentioned to you on the December 30 post. The interesting "mention" here is I did create the cover FIRST.


I love listening to and reading Wayne Dyer and he will always tell you he creates the cover of his new book before he begins to write it. When showing the images to you on December 30 was not sure that I would create the cover at that time.


But as the weeks have flown by and it has set upstairs and had many applications of gesso and paint and regesso I finally said, enough is enough!  LOL And finished it today.


Also working on the next ATC for February titled "Joyful Noise" - thinking it will work. The word for February is "Joy."


Also been playing with my iphone camera and some apps for editing photos. I am really enjoying this creative outlet. This is how I played with the little girl cover:

Love the "light" elements and if I let myself I could certainly use this way too much. LOL. On another app (PerfectPhoto) I can posterize my iPhone photos:







Not even me is safe from my posterizing...... not much more one can say, huh?


And so my little honeysuckle breezers - I will let us all go get ready for the Super Bowl --- commercials for me! Not sure who I am rooting for - geeze the New England Patriots are usually my team to "hate" since that scandal years ago with videoing practices.... Giants are cool. Hmmmm, I am sticking with the commercials.


 See you soon,
