There is nothing like a little sunshine to perk up the most down-trodden soul. It may be almost freezing but I bundle up and walk to the store and thank God for the most welcomed warmth on my face. Today I hopefully finish my poetry/prose book
Essentials which I was inspired to do after publishing my other book How I Survived the Sixties. Since I don't have wheels, I'm making the best of a very frustrating situation. Lots of lemonade. Writing and making jewelry. 5 years ago I had to look after my brother who is disabled and I had no car then also. I walked to Michael's bought a glue gun and created pins with Swarovski crystal bead elements. So I'm taking it up again and to another level. They are very blingy in the light but these pics don't do them justice. I've been selling some, giving some away. It's just so much better than sitting in front of a TV stuffing my face. So here are a few samples. I'd make other shapes if I could find something else that wasn't too big or too corny. I had made one with a camel shape(found it in LA) and that went really quickly. So today, I will surrender my situation, give it over as best I can to my Highest Power and continually ask for guidance so my life can improve. At least I have a very comfortable and warm apartment to live in. Finally! It took coming to NC to accomplish that. Oh yes, if you need a good film to see, Saving Mr. Banks has it all. Great film! Will win Emma Thompson an award I hope! I always root for her since we share the same b'day, April 15th. Happy trails and God bless!!
