Woozles under my bed
8" x 8" Original acrylic painting on stretched canvas |
He sniffs, crouches and peaks ever so carefully. He steps forward
with brave intentions and then jumps back suddenly
as if he's seen a ghost. He's convinced me that Woozles exist.
They aren't imaginary creatures,
but real ones that go bump in the night.
Sometimes I can hear them too... They sound kind of cute...
The little cooing noise they make sounds like
a combination of a playful toddler and a pigeon?
They have magic powers and can make themselves invisible.
I've discovered if I close my eyes I can communicate with them
telepathically. Woozles aren't afraid of you if you if you aren't
scared of them. When we share happy thoughts together they
appear in my minds eye and I can see every little detail,
including their feathers.
So next time you hear a tap or bump under your bed at night,
don't fear them....
They just want to play hide-and-seek.

Silence...........

restlessness. God is the friend of silence. See how nature.... trees,
flowers, and grass grows in silence; see the stars, the moon
and the sun, how they move in silence....
We need silence to be able to touch souls."

Finding Zen
"Zen" Original mixed combing acrylic paint and paper on a canvas panel Click Here To Purchase |
healing aching memories. I'm learning to live more in the
present and less in the past. After a fifteen month sabbatical
from painting I'm forcing myself to pick up a paint brush again. Honestly,
I made a failed attempt at painting four pieces for an art challenge
last year. I will call them "the ugly teacup series"..... Hiccup
I believe people have the power to manifest there own reality....., and so
as I am learning the ability within my mind to do this I have come to
understand that an alchemist cannot achieve much by being idle.
This particular painting was done about three years ago. I wasn't
secure with it at the time, but looking at it now with a new
perspective. I see it, and I hear it.... It's time to move on.......

Love Mom
Your blog is so you. From the time you were a child I let you choose your own clothes and colors. I enjoyed watching your choices. Sometimes a little surprising, but I would get a good laugh. The bright colors, the checkered shirts with the striped skirts, it was always you. I wanted you to get your own imagination and your own self awareness. Shopping was always so fun for us. We shopped until we dropped. Not buying much, but looking and finding the best buys in town. Your 5 1/2 size shoe and my size 9. You always won out with a new pair because the small sizes were always left. How I always wanted to be a size 5 1/2! Only you and your great grandma Laura had that size. I wish I had kept her shoes for you... I will always regret you not knowing her. I cry as I write this as I wish she were here now, holding my hand and rubbing it in her own special way. I also have great memories of watching you play under the shade tree in Pendleton, with all your friends and all your dolls. Movies have always been a part of the lives of you and Mark. Dad is the beginner of all that, I have a hard time sitting still that long. I would rather be in the garden. Love Mom

My Father Loved A Thistle
Die when I may, I want it said by those who knew me best that I always plucked a thistle and planted a flower where I thought a flower would grow.
Abraham Lincoln
American, President Quotes
My father Mark's wisdom is tested, and true. He is the most noble, honest, loyal, loving and virtuous man I know. I am so proud to call him dad. There was a time in my life I was menacing thistle, but dad had faith in me and what I could become....... And so he plucked that troublesome thorn, then prayed over it. He planted it with a Father's faith, and protected it with all of his love. His prayers brought forth a flower.

LESSONS OF LOVE
That's the kind of mother I have. She's a sweet soul! Because of her I learned to search a man's heart before you judge him. She had the ability to see through a child's eyes, and read life with a child's heart. Thanks Mom for the many virtues you instilled within me. I Love You.

I'M JUST BEING A BOOB
Now that I'm OLD I understand those blues. Menopause sucks! I've been warned about it's coming since way back. Heard my Aunt's go on-and-on about the miseries of it, and it seems my mother still suffers in her 60's. Will it ever end? The tears just seem to come out of no where. Dames, that's the thing about us. We can cry a bucket, and an hour later you'd never know what just happened.

PETE'S POND
Rodney has a mischievous sense of humor. The kind that is passed on by a serious crooked grin , broken by a boyish laugh. "Which one's Pete?" I asked seriously. "They all are." My father answered sheepishly.
