A Week of Exploring ...


This week has been a true week of exploring ~ As you can see from the photo I chose today, I have been dabbling in Photoshop and Paintshop ~ Some people watch TV and really enjoy just that ~ I find myself "exploring" my way through editing programs WHILE watching TV ~ It turns into a game of "What will I create tonight?" ... What do you do while watching TV? Knit? Sew? Sketch?

  1. I like it like it like it! You are teasing me again! There are so many of your photos that I would like to use as an inspiration for my weaving! That's not fair, I only have two hands and one loom! :)
    I don't have a TV in my studio, but when I watch TV in my living room, I usually crochet.

  2. I agree, I feel as if I'm wasting time if I'm not fadiddling(my own word, lol) with something while watching TV. I like hand sewing or even paging through a magazine while watching. I don't watch much television, except for Thursday nights when Project Runway is on. I do love that. Sometimes, I'll even bring a book over on the sofa and if I lose interest in the show I can always pick up a book.
    I'll be back to visit you...I'm going to subscribe so I know when you update.

    Good 'seeing' you!

  3. Nice to hear from you, Emily ~ I like your word, Fadidling - Great word, Actually ~ Yes, Watching TV is also catching up on magazine time for me, as well ~ I need to sit with my Mom and take a Sewing 101 class, I think I would like to know how to do simple stitches, well at least as a start. Yes, I also have a book on the coffee table to read during commercials. I would love to have you back for a visit ... Great catching up with you!

  6. Hi Kristine! Saw your post @ the Wild.Precious Coffee House and decided to stop by. I've really enjoyed reading some of your blog posts!

    I don't watch TV but will sit in the livingroom with family, reading or writing, while they watch TV. TV is just not a habit that I ever developed, lol - although I will watch a movie on DVD once in a while.

Love Story in Burlington, VT ...

It started the morning I decided to visit Muddy Waters (Coffee House) in Burlington, Vermont. I was told by the locals that if I was looking for a quiet place to write and enjoy a good cup of java, this was the place. I entered into a few different level rooms containing booths, cozy benches and chairs. After ordering an Iced Machiatto, I settled into a nice corner bench adjacent to a bookshelf. It was quiet, the perfect seat to get some reading done. My reason for spending a quiet morning here was to work through a few more chapters in The Artist's Way. (Julia Cameron's ~ Guide to Inspire Artists). Upon looking around, I noticed that there was a small, rolled up piece of paper tucked away in the brick wall behind me. At first, I was not sure whether to take it out and read it, or not. Perhaps I have seen too many "Candid - Punked" like shows, and someone was watching my every move. Pushing these paranoid thoughts aside, I reached over, read it and I was elated...

All about Hope ...

I thought this image was appropriate for how I am feeling today. I seemed to have gotten a second wind with being creative this year. I am excited to tell you about my new treasure in writing. It is a newfound website (that I found in a column in Oprah's Nov 2011 magazine) called 750Words.com. This site follows the steps of Julia Cameron's The Artists Way. It helps you work towards a better writing style. It encourages you to write 750 words a day. This is approximately 3 typewritten pages of words. I am finding it easier to pick a theme (from Patti Digh's LIFE IS A VERB book - Thanks, Patti!) to help create daily themes. Please cheer me on to continue this daily ritual.  Have you started a new routine that you would like to share?
