Reach ...then reach a little farther

Reach......then reach a little farther........
Happy Pink Saturday

When I first began to dream of being an artist it was only by accident. My other dreams were of creating a beautiful home, being creative, learning to cook and going to school to get my degree in Business and Art. Luckily for me all those dreams have come true. You know the feeling when everything is coming together and it's all good stuff. When  you don't want to move or talk because you don't want to screw it up?  Well, that is what has happened. Just Friday I found out, by accident that I was nominated as Artist of Elko Readers's Choice. Wow!!!!! How sad for me that because I don't get the newspaper I didn't even know. But, a friend on facebook mentioned she voted for me.
Just being nominated is a great honor. When I started painting the artwork was just for me to help me recover from a back injury. Little by little I must be reaching people and creating an audience.

So my message today is, take a risk, put your boots on, and start walking one step at a time to reach your goal. REACH A LITTLE FARTHER INSIDE YOURSELF EACH DAY.  If you can't reach that big goal, break it down to smaller goals. Everything you think about can be done, might have already been done. I read a lot of biographies of artists to see how they did it. Consider reaching out and asking for help.

Celebrate the small steps you have reached. When you have reached a goal set new ones. Be curious, active and grateful.

 I am always concerned when winter starts too early.
There are so many things I love about Fall that I don't want to miss out on any of them.
Like,

Carmel apples. I went to Park City and saw these there.
I also like the smell of wood burning in the crisp air.
Leaves falling to the ground and raking them all up.

Fresh Vegetable stews in the pot. \

Dressing up for Halloween

Playing family cards.
These are just some of the things I love about Fall
I would love to hear your favorite things.
Be Inspired,

 All the things I  Get To Do Now
Change is happening again....It is true life continues whether you want it to or not. When I think of my life just one year ago I am surprised by all the changes that have taken place. Some were with my design others were circumstantial. But all in all my new thoughts go to this.
I Get to go back to work and  be a substitute teacher.
I Get to paint and show my artwork.
I Get to travel around the world
I Get to have a computer to keep up with family and friends.
I Get live near my children and see them often.
I Get to cook healthy meals I choose to cook.

I could go on and on but I'm pretty sure you see where I headed with this. I get to be involved with my life and its not a chore. It Gets my through my physical therapy and healing activities. I Get To has simpling become a saying for me now in stead of I Have to do this or that . Just think what it would be like to not get to go shopping?
