Anticipation

Tonight, so many things and thoughts racing through my mind.

Anticipation

Gratitude

This blog community offers so much love from so many stranger friends.

Like Jules from Whimsical Notions.

My swap partner for Home for the Holidays II.

Generosity

With an accent from down under. ;)

Makes me feel so continental...

the tears in my soul
reincarnated as tears
cleanse my worried heart

Written so clearly, so perfectly by my new mid-west friend of

"Creative Cottage Dreamer."

This sharing that we fall into arms wide open with open arms waiting.

Kindness

Love

Which makes me think of Terri of "Blooming Ideas."

Terri who had reached out to me after reading my disappointment of missing a tag swap. Terri who offered to do a one on one swap with me and sent me the beautiful white queen.

Sharing

Heart

Which lead to the Mad Tea Party Mail Art Group.

And My Altered Tea Cup Swap.

And obsession with all things "Wonderland."

Phases

Distraction

Isn't it interesting how our hearts know what we need if we listen?

Disappointment

Maybe my recent plunge into swaps is to distract from my disappointment of not being able to creatively plunge into a day I've dreamt of for twenty years.

Dreams

Twenty

Maybe it's a healing from a year of struggle.

Challenge

Strength

I found a new site, "LunarraStar", you can find the link under "Cool Resources" in my side bar.
So many lovely "Wonderland" pieces.

Creativity

Past

Present

Soft

Comfort

Yesterday

Nourishment

I've started a new grouping in my side bar for all things "Foodie."

Satisfying

Life

I've been meaning to share with you my new favorite breakfast.

Maybe because I love the name "Kashi"

Maybe because it's called "Honey Sunshine"

Maybe because it's flavors are a combination of memory of childhood cereals.

Maybe

Possibility

Hope

Good Night... and as baby girl would say..."Sleep Sweet."
