workshops here I come

I am registered for an amazing workshop event entitled ARTFUL GATHERING.
I feel so blessed to be taking 2 workshops.. Mix it up - fabric hanging by the one and only JoAnna Pierotti, and Faux Encaustic by Judi Ohl. July 16 can't get here quick enough...I am so excited and have been rummaging through my stash putting together my supply lists... I'm going to try to find the badge from the workshop and post it here on my blog.

I am being a very Brave Girl

I am in the 4th week of this wonderful workshop called "Soul Restoration" from the Brave Girls Club. I must admit in week 2 I almost gave up. Some deeply embedded negative memories came up and my emotions were all over the place. I was angry, cranky, and basically being not-so-nice to those around me. The lesson was to create a time line of your life starting from when you were one year old, and marking the years that were significant,good or bad. Did not expect to have such a strong reaction but I have made it through to the sunnier side and now the lessons are very empowering to me. I am truly grateful that this came into my life at this time. I want to be a happier person, not so uptight all the time. Letting too many of the little things get to me. Ya know what I mean? We only get one life and it is oh so precious! Why waste it getting our selves upset over nonsense. You know, when someone cuts you off, or goes ahead of you on the check out line, etc. I keep praying that I will feel God's love in my heart again, the way I used to. That peace that surrounds you even when you have many things going on that are challenging or difficult, you know you have His Grace and His Love and He has your best interests at heart! xoxo

NEVER FORGET

I AM HERE, REALLY I AM...

I know I have not been blogging much at all, but it is certainly not from lack of desire... I have been feeling like my world is turning upside down lately.. I am lost, on the edge, and things are spinning out of control. I have been fortunate enough to find out about a very special place recently that has literally "saved" me in more ways than I can say... the Brave Girls Club.. There is so much love and inspiration and hope there.. I know that passing it along will touch the lives of those who come across it. http://www.bravegirlsclub.com/ I will post more soon... Much love.. in art.. and soul... Denise
