I'm truly BLESSED!!



Happy Wednesday to you!
I have been out playing with the camera again.  I have to fill up my photo bank again because when
my computer crashed I lost everything.  Hopefully, I can get it back.
You know, even with all of that, God has been so good to me.  I am so lucky to live in a beautiful area.
I have a wonderful husband,. an awesome step son.  Even when bad things happen I have got to try to
see the good and know that God is in control of my life.  Not me!
I haven't shared this here yet but in April I lost my job.  I had been at this job for just under 10
years.  It was a very stressful job.  A soul crushing job that I honestly didn't want to do anymore.
What do you do in this economy?  I couldn't quit.  There is really nothing available where I live.
I honestly felt that I couldn't go on with out risk to my health.  I cried out to God.  Please get me
out of this job!  I can't do it anymore!  It was a totally heart felt prayer.  3 days later, I lost the job.
I don't know what's next in my adventure but, I know I am going to put my trust in God.
  If you are going through any kind of a struggle,  please know that God loves you and if you
put your faith in him he will see you through.  Just believe it!!!
Have a blessed day!

Flower garden pictures and a glimmer mist tutorial

Hello there everyone who visits my little blog.  I hope you all are doing well and staying cool.
It was 103 here today and will be hotter tomorrow.  Today I drove to Oakhurst to go grocery
shopping, "and stick my head in the freezer lol."  I Forgot My Wallet!!!!!  I got all the way through
the self checkout and did not have any way to pay.  I was so mad at myself.  Have you ever done
anything stupid like that?  Let me tell you it is not the first time I have done that.  LOL.
I have been playing with my camera again.   Here's some pictures for you.

The next picture if it loads correctly is my recyled can project.
I glued wooden beads under it . 

That adds a little something extra to it.  To make your own glimmer mist you
need to get one of those travel spray bottles.  I got mine at target.  Fill it with
about 1/2 and inch, less or more if you like, of the paint you like.  Then get
Windsor & Newton iridescent medium and pour about an inch, then add water.
These instructions are not set in stone.  Play with it.
It really is a pretty way to add some shimmer to
your projects.  I like to decorate the bottle with
old sheet music .

If you have stuck with me this long thank you.  You
are a trouper.  Have a great evening.
