Who has time to write this down

 

I decided to make time.

I don't have time for much these days, I'll be honest. My sewing is sitting in a bag by my chair... I do pace myself with packing and take lots of breaks and just sit, well, and I read. I'm reading a blog.  

I discovered this awesome woman who actually inspired me to start this journal. Her name is Jude Hill and she has a blog called spirit cloth. I could write a lot about her and how she has impacted my way of thinking AND BEING, but maybe you should just go look for yourself. (besides, this break has to be short and is now over)

I'm finding all sorts of things I forgot I had, in particular, a box of my moms love letters from her youth. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~

And then the box with the tape recorder... I remember when I asked her to make me recordings of her voice. I knew back then, how much my heart would ache for her company when she was gone. 

She tells me stories and many words of wisdom. (would my kids like something like this from me?)

I stop, reminisce and listen to her voice for a little while. 

I wish I started this journal sooner.

Progress. My beautiful workbench IS coming with me.

BIG moment... dismantling the counter. HubbyBub made these from recycled flooring from the original part of the house. 

I did post a bunch of YouTube videos when we started this huge home remodel project on my personal channel. I'm really glad I documented that. 

In order to list the house, my art studio has to be turned into a Master Bedroom. 

More tomorrow. It's been a busy day with a lot getting done, time for rest.
