August Break==Day 9 Pieces of Life

Ever feel like your life is in pieces?  Here a piece, there a piece, everywhere a piece!  And are there times when you wonder when all those pieces will fit together in one happy place?

 

It's like a patchwork quilt--all those tiny little fragments scattered around the room.  But, once sewn in a reasonable pattern, you create one marvelous creation!

And there are those days filled with chaos and hectic routines 

But, upon closer inspection, we can visualize how we break down each section--make it work--just bite off one section at a time. 

Oh My!  what problems surmount daily--how do we fit everything into one nice package?

It is the bigger picture of our life--all those little pieces make us what we are--it can overcome or we can conquer.   how will the pieces of your life fit together? 

August Break=Day 8 SELFIES!

Oh My! How we like that word!  Why?  Because it is Our person--ME, MYSELF and I!  Oh!  How we like ourselves so much that we'll use the camera to take our photo anywhere or any time. 

The word "SELFIE" is relatively new to the dictionary--SELFIE can be used in a game of Scrabble!  There is nothing formal about a SELFIE--It's just you and your hand held camera!  Let's get along with this and upload my SELFIE

 

 

How will you place yourself into a SELFIE today?

August Break=Day 7 TODAY!

TODAY is.........................................................................

a warm summer day

 in a peaceful setting

 with rushing thoughts

of color and wide open spaces!

Today is ..............................................................

August Break=Day 6 REFLECTION!

August Day 6 brings us to "REFLECTION"--When this word popped up for today's theme, my mind swirled with various thoughts and images. This word can be intangible.   

Can we not see 'reflections' in the water?  

 

 

Can we not see a 'reflection' of ourselves in nature? 

 

• Our eyes see different 'reflections' than our souls. 
• We can reflect on movement;
• we can reflect on past years;
• we can reflect or give consideration to a thought;
• we can reflect as we meditate;
• we can reflect on something said in anger.

 

How will you reflect today? 

 

 

 

 

August Break=Three

This is day five (5) of August Break.  Our theme for the day is THREE!  Now, what do you think when you hear THREE?

• First thought that comes into my head--"Baa Black Sheep, do you have any wool?  Yes sir,
• yes sir, THREE bags full!"  and as a fiber person, I certainly have more than three bags full! 
• Here are just three of my bags filled with knitting projects!   

ORANGE

August 4 brings us to ORANGE!  Orange is the color of saffron, pumpkins and apricots. It is between red and yellow on the spectrum of light, and in the traditional color wheel used by painters. Its name is derived from the Orange the fruit.  Orange is commonly associated with amusement, the unconventional, extroverts, fire, activity, danger, taste and aroma and Autumn season! 
Did you know that Orange is one word you can not rhyme with?

ORANGE YOU GLAD YOU STOPPED BY!

 
 

 
 

 

August Break--Window!

August 3==window!  What does your window look out on?  Is it an open window to the world?

This window looks out over the deck towards the mountains.  A school behind us will soon be in session and we not only see youngsters, we'll hear the squeals and laughter!  This window is always open.

This one of my favorite views from our visit to Greece.  But, this window is closed. 

Have you decided if your window to the world will be open or shuttered?
