chicken tractors.....
Chickens...Chickens...Chickens...
I'm forever trying to find a reliable source of fresh...organic eggs.
So...I've finally decided to just get my own chickens.
I have plenty of room for chickens to run free range
but with all the coyotes and fox I don't feel they will
be very safe. I've got a friend building me a Chicken
Tractor so they can safely be free range. I printed these
pictures from an ebay seller so he could get an idea
of what I want. Sooooo looking forward to homegrown
vegetable quiche!

a song in my heart
I had an unusual visitor this afternoon at my bird feeder.
I haven't seen this little creature around here before
but enjoyed watching it share the bounty with my
regulars.....
"a bird does not sing because it has an answer...
it sings because it has a song"
~chinese proverb
watching these little ones makes my heart sing......

play.....
"nearly always there came a time
when each child felt the burden of
their uniqueness. at this point they
would reach inside looking for their
gift and they would place it into the
waiting hands of those that loved
them. in exchange they received a
smaller....
colder....
harder....
gift..
the gift of uniformity."
~manda clements
what a sorrowful thing... having to give up our gift
in order to "fit in" with the world...
wishing you a day of playing with your inner child...
she still holds the gift of wonder...delight...
playfulness...and creativity without judgement.

Welcome Lila.....
I welcomed my granddaughter Lila into this world today.
All 6 lbs 1 oz of her.....18 3/4 inches long.
I'm thankful she and her mother are both doing well!
Look how tiny her feet are...

Big Brother.....
How many of you take vitamins?
How many of you take herbal supplements?
Did you know that as soon as current supplies are deleted
you will no longer have the option to purchase what you've been using?
My friend is closing her Herb store next week because suppliers can't
get any more vitamins and herbs. She placed a WHOLESALE order for
$2400.00 worth of supplies for her family and only received $1200.00 worth.
I know Snopes says this isn't true but you need to do a little research on Snopes.
Oh....and by the way.....this includes heirloom seeds.
So if you plant heirloom seeds I would suggest you purchase what you
need before they run out and begin saving your own seeds.
I find this VERY scary!

dancing the wheel........
"the Medicine Wheel suggests we are all one...
all the circle...
all the time.
to live in balance and harmony
we recognize and integrate these aspects of our selves daily...
to live humbly...
simply...
and a life of higher awareness."

one tin soldier......
this song has been much on my mind today....
not for any particular reason.
not for any particular reason.
it's from the movie "the legend of billy jack"
probably my all time favorite movie...
sometimes the injustices in this world
become so incredibly overwhelming....
so much hate....and jealousy.
kindness...and love
really are
all
that
matter...

faith is knowing........
"when you come to the edge of all the light you have known...
and are about to step out into darkness...
faith is knowing one of two things will happen:
there will be something to stand on...
or you will be taught to fly.

a little crow love......
every since i downloaded the crow freebie from Land of Nod Studios my creative juices have been off the chart! i've always considered all birds to be my muse but most especially the crow.
Ted Andrews book Animal Speak tells us: "wherever crows are...there is magic. they are symbols of creation and spiritual strength. they remind us to look for opportunities to create and manifest the magic of life. they are messengers calling to us about the creation and magic that is alive within our world everyday and available to us."
magic.....there's that word again!

ediths house
how did you celebrate the new year? i had a 'couple' of glasses of wine and worked in my studio until around 10:30 or so. there's an old beat up recliner that lives in that room...up against the window....beneath some oak leaf shaped tea lights. after i finished puttering around i turned out all the lights...laid back in that ol' chair and listened to the moonlight tap on my window. there was a bazillion stars out last night....and as i sat taking in all that beauty i hoped that i'd see a shooting star......at 11:25....yep.......A SHOOTING STAR! .....and i made a wish.....and welcomed the new year in from one of my favorite places. shortly after twelve i went outside and stood beside my studio window.....soaking up the moon glow and the stars glitter...and thanked the universe for another year..........
i started off this new year with paint on my hands.....spent the morning on this piece.....ediths house.
