Friday's Grace Notes

Friday's Grace Notes
The Village Idiot
No wait!  Don't change the channel!
Have you ever paused to think about the hows and whys you became the person that you've become?  Well I do and there is always someone to blame.  Yup.  That's when we begin w/ our parents and it usually is not on a high note.  That's the trend, right?  I could play along but no I would be throwing more of Gods Blessings back in His face.
So play along, please. Yes. Pun intended.
I was born premature.  The Dr gave my mother this way too small baby and says "be careful.  She can't have much stress... good grief.  I really liked that different drummer. (http://asbellarts.blogspot.com/2012/02/moses-had-aaron-i-had-michele.html
I was geeky and very talented.  Sometimes poor as church mice my Mom made sure that we always had the finest art supplies, piano lessons, two pianos so we wouldn't fight over who's turn it was to get to play, Michele and I sang and harmonized ALL THE TIME! She made sure that I had voice lessons, two of the best guitars money could buy, encouraged us to be in every play, no matter how stupid our costumes looked and cried every time that she heard me sing lyric soprano as I majored in voice with scholorships..
No Don't let me confuse you.  It's not Mothers day, but she is 86 years old and I have a life threatening disease. Why wait.  Life is WAY too important.
Celebrate the day
I love you Mommy.

Monday's Grace Notes

Monday's Grace Notes
Unclenching my hands and letting go,  an emptier full life,  the color green, the color blue, the color yellos....  Kaliediscopes!,,God doesn't speak to me in the thunder but in the whisper of the wind... I'm listening,  soup cans with pop off openers, piping hot fresh corn on the cobb with garlic and finely shredded parmesian cheese,  and my new Florida Horizon work in progress.
Celebrate the day!

Friday's Grace Notes
My dog giving me snuggelie buggelies at 4:00 AM, going back to sleep at 5:00 AM, then  getting up at 7:00 AM for my morning commute to my home studio,  fixing myself a hot breakfast,  the movies "Noel" and "A Home For Christmas",  Emmanuel... God is with us,  pretzel M & M's,  being able to lift my legs today,  and friends that love and trust me enough to share their sorrows with me as well as their joys.

Tuesday's Grace Notes
People who love me and take the time to show it, falling forward, having what I need to be who I am, a closet with clothes, dental floss, plain popcorn dusted with pumpkin pie spice and raw sugar, God giving me a voice to sing, blue and white china, a cleaned up art studio waiting to paint in, and remembering living in Bamburg Germany at Christmas time... Wow!
Celebrate the day!

What a super day... it feels like Sunday!, choosing not to turn on the morning news and turning on music instead,  choosing to skip make up for the day, reaching out to friends, always tweaking my home decor, and being inspired by other artists.

Going through flames and succumbing to "a peace that passeth all understanding, the simple joy of a favorite chair, miniature Kindergarten piano students, reading in the front courtyard this morning with Panda, meeting my new adult art student. They most often become good friends!
