Happy Halloween!

I was feeling festive & happy this morning. Everyone was dressed up, decorating and in a Halloween mood. I even got zombified.

Then the true horror of work started and I became an angry, grumpy and irritable person. Sad and blue was I, and still am.

We even tried to cheer up by going out after work. Eh.

Not sure why I get so blue. I guess I'm feeling overwhelmed with work & school. Blah.

More coffee tomorrow, closer deadlines and more messes to clean up after.

Debbie Downer.

Bring on the zombies.

Rainbows! :)

One of my favorite things about rain, rainbows! Double Rainbow! What does it all mean?

Rainy Days

I love rain. Today there was thunder and rain. I've had tons of sunny days and never enjoyed my office or window view as much as I've loved it today - a drenching rainy day. People even came in to see from my window how heavy it was raining. All day I've sort of zoned out and enjoyed the rain. I can watch the rain and not think about work or worry so much. There is something wonderful about this rainy day and I'm really loving and appreciating my office window view. First time I really appreciate this perspective.

Thanks God :)

Giving

Trying this out. Got some books on CD, and, how old school is this, got a CD player, and am going to do more walks with books rather than music.

This is the first one I'm trying. We'll see if it helps the life & stress management.

Quilts & Values

I went to a quilt show today. First time ever. It was suggested by an aunt-in-law. She is a quilter, I'm a total newbie but interested in it, so we went.

It was pretty awesome. It was so cool seeing local art and crafts-woman-ship. Apparently they're also hosted by guilds of women, a community. I also chatted with my coworker's wife, and had a really nice time hanging out with my aunt. She got me a quilting book and a sewing machine she had laying around.

Some photos. I'm super excited to learn something new. :) Go Art!
