Chasing Domestic Bliss: a few of his favorite things

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2015/03/a-few-of-his-favorite-things.html

You can find me:. Wednesday, March 18, 2015. A few of his favorite things. On Monday the youngest member of our family turned 4. When one is the youngest I think it is often the case that you do lots of things for others. Waiting around for others, parties for others, activities based on the interests of others. so over the weekend we tried to do things that were just for the birthday boy. And here are a few of Elliott's favorite things:. Lego Anakin Skywalker birthday cake. July 17, 2015 at 4:37 AM.

Chasing Domestic Bliss: May 2015

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html

You can find me:. Saturday, May 30, 2015. The mystery of May is which word best describes the breakneck pace with which it advanced. Mayhem, madness and masochistic would suit I think. Phew. I'll take a breath now that it's almost over. Much of the month was fun and celebration, and of course as life tends to present itself there was (and continues to be) much sadness and stress. With each little baby I hold I see how un-little. Am I recording the sweetness of now? Links to this post. Also named The Prin...

Chasing Domestic Bliss: April 2014

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html

You can find me:. Sunday, April 27, 2014. Commitment (a multipart series). Commitment and self-discipline. April presented two opportunities to practice my commitment to the earth. On April 12 our family attended the B.R.O.K.E. On Earth Day I visited Kyan's classroom and read "Earth Mother". By Ellen Jackson. It is a wonderful story of the gentleness, power and wisdom of nature's cycles. The kids were very engaged by it and we followed up with learning the first verse of The Earth is our Mother. Daughter...

Chasing Domestic Bliss: June 2014

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2014_06_01_archive.html

You can find me:. Thursday, June 19, 2014. It is quite a miraculous thing that we humans change. That just as we think it's all figured out everything breaks into a million pieces. And we stand somewhat stunned and left to contemplate whether our ideas were illusions or simply a part of becoming more ourselves. I think I could approach this hesitation in a myriad of ways: take classes, read more books, spend more time in community for in the flesh experiences. I could seek outside myself and I do. Actual...

Chasing Domestic Bliss: May 2014

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html

You can find me:. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. At the start (commitment 2). Lessons unfold like flowers for us to find in life. Often I'm sure we miss them, crumpling them beneath our feet, looking the other way instead, interpreting the message incorrectly or just denying it completely. As this year began unfolding a lesson I had only touched the surface of. I began to confront myself with the excuses I've made and probably still make to keep me from achieving important goals.

Chasing Domestic Bliss: WIP Wednesday

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2015/03/wip-wednesday.html

You can find me:. Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Truth be told I have so many works in progress. Right now that my head is spinning around and I'm hoping that nothing important gets dropped when I inevitably drop a future ball. But rather than focusing on those feelings I am going to share two pieces that are in different states today. The technique I use for these pieces is just layers upon layers. So they take a while to build and the colours change as the surface evolves. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

Chasing Domestic Bliss: London Calling

http://chasingdomesticbliss.blogspot.com/2015/05/london-calling.html

You can find me:. Wednesday, May 6, 2015. This is an interesting read so far, debunking the myths surrounding the ravens living at the Tower of London. I happened upon it while looking for books on ravens for a future art project. Edward Rutherford has written many novels specific to cities. I have read Dublin: Foundation. Also named The Princes of Ireland) and really enjoyed it. Historical fiction helps me to grasp a place much better than too much non-fiction. Much less dry. July 20, 2015 at 2:58 AM.
