Exploring Life One Pixel At A Time
The last few weeks have been a whirlwind and a lot of fun. I took a short vacation from my blog to finish out the Relay For Life season and concentrate on my team. Because I did this, my team raised so much money for cancer research, patients, and caregivers. It amazes me that we…
Everyone seems so touchy lately, and a little bit mean at times. It used to be you can have an opposing opinion and not be labeled as horrible things. It used to be you could express your opinion without being attacked. It’s wearing me out. It feels like people are taking each other for granted…
I’ve had this post ready to publish for a few days now but I got absorbed with something this weekend that kind of took my whole attention away from my blog. I am learning how to work in blender. Nothing big, just fun stuff like statues, cups, etc. Not sure I’ll ever try to sell…
One of my favorite poets is Maya Angelou. Her voice for women has always been a song striking a cord in my heart. My favorite poem of Angelou’s is “Caged Bird” about racism and oppression. For me, the poem sings of my freedom from my past. From the person who spent so many years trying…
I had a long post ready to go but decided at the last minute to just delete it all and go with short and sweet today. Happy Mother’s Day to all the mom’s out there and the dad’s who fill in as mom’s. I hope you have a wonderful day and can celebrate with your…

“If we can’t speak highly of someone, then we shouldn’t say anything at all.” ~Dhar Mann Lately I’ve been listening to an inspirational speaker I happened to run across on my FB feed one day, Dhar Mann. He’s amazing. His videos all have a lesson to learn from them that starts with a story. Who…
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had great holiday season and got everything you wished for… I did. I’m not going to write a lot today because I wanted to participate in the 19 Questions Blogger Challenge while I listen to Charmed (the original version and some butterfly kisses :P). Well at least some of…
I’m a rebellious autumn fairy today. I don’t like it when people try to force me to put a nice little label on others or on myself. When I checked my RL Facebook this morning, there was a post in the NaNoWriMo group about “testing” your characters to make sure they fit specific labels to…
Let me tell you a story about living with anxiety. Everything can be fine. You could be having a great day, but out of the blue, there is an annoying voice going off, telling you that everything is wrong. This voice is so hard to ignore. Sometimes it will even cause physical effects like shaking…
