new friends

everyone please welcome allie to our iDIG group. i am so excited to have her join our wonderful practice. i met allie through lea's playgroup as well as through an amazing yoga/art workshop she held on mother's day. allie will no doubt be a huge inspiration to us all.

the only (very flexible) guidelines to our practice are to write 5 things everyday that you are grateful for. it could be anything from breathing to fingertips. anything. many of us skip days for various reasons. many of us write nuggets of wisdom as well.welcome.

and can i say how inspiring you all continue to be. these past few weeks have been harder than usual for me, and to see that i'm not alone makes all the difference in the world. you guys rock....so much.
  1. not painting yet this week but getting a wonderful insight from kristen that it's OK and maybe a good idea for me to take a break after such a prolific time last week.
  2. a few good books and wonderful conversations to help screw on my head again after a few weeks of feeling like it was chopped off and sitting in a clothes hamper somewhere
  3. all the amazing women that i am blessed to know and have so much support from
  4. looking through boxes today and finding a box filled with a huge collection of love letters, cards, photos, and daily love notes between my hobby and i. amazing timing. what a wonderful reminder of the importance of actively loving, and seeing proof of how we used to do that.
  5. seeing lea so happy today hanging out with her pals at music class and playgroup today.
  6. seeing an old friend yesterday and feeling so good about our grounded conversations. i hadn't seen her since i was 6 mo pregnant.
nugget: "love is not a feeling, it's an ability" from the movie dan in real life
