Follow Your Dreams
Do you ever read a post that just says it all? I was travelling through the blogosphere yesterday, and stumbled upon "The Bottom of the Ironing Basket". I was so moved by Simone's passion for "creating herself". We all have this fire inside of us, but rarely we ignite the fire.
Here are a couple of ideas that I practice myself, that might help you ignite your fire.
1. Keep a pad and pen by your bedside table. When the ideas start flowing in your head at night, write them down.
2. Make a daily list of things to do, and cross them off as you complete each one.
3. Make time for yourself. Who cares if the bed doesn't get made, or if you fall behind on the laundry.
Make time for what makes you "happy".
People always ask me,
"How do you do it? How do you ever have time to paint?
The answer is simple. I make time.
One of my dearest friends always says,
"This isn't a dress rehearsal, this is the real thing".
Make each day count to the fullest!

Top 5 List - Things I am Grateful For
I just read this "ever so happy" post over at my friend Nicole's blog, My Teacups in Peony. It inspired me to think about what I am grateful for. Also, my friend, Char over at Ramblins is doing a daily Gratitude post as well. It is important for me to constantly remind myself of the things I am grateful for. In this age we live in, it is too easy to get caught up in the whirlwind of "keeping up with the Joneses". If I concentrate on the "things I do have" rather than the "things I don't have", I am a much happier person. Here is my Top 5 List - Things I am Grateful For
1. My loving family... including our cute "Ellie"
2. Being able to do what I love - Paint!!
3. Our wonderful home
4. Silly I know, but drinking my coffee and blogging with you guys!
5. My awesome girlfriends!
What are you grateful for?
