Eat, Drink, and.....Paint Pottery
Once a month on a Thursday, I look forward to getting together with the ladies. We talk, share mommy and wife stories, laugh, drink wine, eat each others food, and did I say laugh? Oh yeah, we paint pottery too!
The painting of the pottery (at least by me)..... atrocious! The company of friends....amazing!
There is something oddly relaxing about painting awful pottery. Knowing I'm bad takes the pressure off, and I have such a wonderful time eating, laughing, and sharing stories!
(Oh yeah, did I mention we paint pottery too?)
I love this place, check it out for yourself!

Swirling Ideas
Shuffling through vintage postcards, reading inspiring blogs, and sorting through weird stuff at a local antique store this past weekend, started a swirly of ideas. The lack of all resources and second thoughts about mentioning to my husband that I would be changing decor in the living room for the 11th time this year, persuaded me to let the ideas land on a list instead.
It seems that when I have the time and money, the ideas are sparse and even a "to do" list won't inspire motivation. Of course, when the ideas seem to gather and swirl like a tornado, the resources are lacking. Anyone else experience this phenomenon?
And then there are those moments....when the ideas, money, free time, and motivation all collide. Ahhhh, I live for those moments!
