So I have been making so how to videos that im gonna be puttin' up as a class type thang , I thought since I have been working on stuff for myself I would spread a little of my ideas to some people . I have been inspired by alot of the people i have met in this cyber world , and I thought , I have much to give to the world too. I am a talented being tryin' to participate in this movement yet scared to do it. I realized that your never gonna know unless you try and Im not gettin' any younger only older and that is time being wasted . Hell with that! I must say. I am a go getter and all I need is the umph to do it . I think Im ready to go down a new path and direction without fear! So heres a video that I did about clutter clearing for the artist , just the beginning of a bunch of how to videos , enjoy!

I haven't been on this blog in so long , really sorry about that , the last couple of months I have just been tryin' to find myself and it was difficult but Im healing so its all good . Since the last time I was on here I was tryin' to find my therapy and I have found it in various websites and blogs that I would like to share with you . down below is a site I found that is a great place for artists or people who want to be artist but are to afraid for one reason or another this site is for you .Its a artist  named Jaime Ridler and she has great projects that have to do with dreamin' and believin' so check out her site down below , its awesome , now I am on my way to go do the weekly wednesday wishcasting how do I wish to STRETCH?

I cant believe that my day was so yucky , I must say I am sooo glad I got through it. My car broke down and it was so hot ,and some guy on the road was roadraggin' me , but ,again, I got through it . Today has been a great day , Im tryin' to get into two design teams for scrapbook sites so Im kinda excited because if I get the part I can really go off and start maybe even teach some classes out here in Hollywood , no one really scraps out here Im really shocked about that part , so someone needs to get them started, maybe it can be me. : P
My kitchen is coming together quite well , its a long , slow process but I have had summers in Europe and in northern cali but stayin' home all summer for remodeling my house , Im sure is a summer Im gonna remember. This summer , like I have mentioned before, is a revelation of sorts ,Im healing from our family issues , but I live far enough from all of them to do my healing , so the pain is slowly goin' away. The holidays are probably gonna be different. I don't think that we're gonna celebrated it anywhere but up here at our desert house. Family is just not the answere for the holidays for Dave and I . I think we're gonna be like the movie Chocolat , where Pinoche , the main actress , is the bad seed of the town , and she just invites all the, " not people", well thats probably what we're gonna do. I know alot of lonely people who are really nice and deserve to come over and celebrate my new house with dave and I,not to mention a great dinner made in my beautiful kitchen. : P

So on that note I will end this blog with a layout that means so much to me because its the beginning of many days and years with my soulmate that I love very much. This is a layout I did for a challenge at a scrapbook site , they asked to do it with newspaper and use the word , " Journey " enjoy! and may it inspire your creative side to break out!

So I have been feeling supremely good these days, it's taken a whole lot of therapy with scrapbooking , taking pictures, focusing on my remodeling of my house , and spending quality time with my hubby/soulmate Dave . We have learned that , if one of us starts to feel funky , that the one who isn't be gutzy enough to bring them out . Its been working . We talk alot , we get stuff off our chest and we go and rehearse in the studio and play some music . The end of the day we just have dinner and a nice glass of wine and watch the sunset . If anything , Im learning to love life to the fullest ,after all Dave and I have been through the one thing we are understanding is let yourself heal , let go of all regret ,and move forward . We know that all this takes time , but we are learning everyday to get there to that place of serenity .

I am off to do some scrapbookin I have some layouts I haven't exactly finished and I think were gonna go to the beach today. Thanks for listening and know that your not alone in this life , we all have are obstacles we just have to know that its not always dark and that we can find the path that is beautiful. : )
