sketches of my day May 2008 - Nov 2010

July 27, 2008

If you are like me, you don't like to have your picture taken. It seems my Ezine site requires a photo, so because I value my presence there, I have submitted one. It is a picture my daughter took of my twins and I this past May while in Disneyworld. I cropped it to the smallest possible size! I decided to put it on my Sketches of My Day Home page also. The web browsing experience is always enhanced for me when I can see a picture of the person writing the articles. Anyway, I am being a good sport and submitting my fifty four year old picture.

While I am “here”, I would like to post a little quote that I found while cleaning out a desk drawer. I love the message and hope you will too. I do not have the author, so I apologize to whoever it may be; it was written in a hasty script by me a long time ago.

“In bringing up children, spend on them half as much money and twice as much time.”

Till next time,
p.s.

p.s. I don't follow my horoscope or believe in the predictions made, but today I read mine, Cancer, in our daily newspaper and I love the message. I would like to post it before the day is over (it is 11:45). Perhaps it is something you will need to read tomorrow morning. It feels a bit empowering.

" No matter what's going on beyond your front door; you have the ability to close it out and forget about it as you busy yourself with the creation of a cozy, happy, calming world of your own."

This is why I post:

Seeing (5/4/08 - 2/18/12) There they were, as I walked along the sidewalk that time and drought had lifted and cracked, the first fireflies of summer. They were scattered throughout the dark woods and at the very moment I saw their iridescent magic. I watched as they blinked and I forgot, for a moment, all that might have been wrong and remembered, instead, all that was right.There should be a place somewhere in our lives that encourages us to reflect and to appreciate the extraordinary gifts of nature, along with the ordinary things that make up our lives. The more time passes, the more I understand how important it is to take notice of all the simple things that are woven into my day. I hope to continue to discover and, with this blog, share those things that are close to the Earth and there for us always, while we are busy looking somewhere else.

Saying (2/19/12 - ongoing)

I think today is the day things will change here on "sketches of my day". I started this blog to showcase positives in my day, a place that combatted the negativities we are constantly bombarded with and instead became a place where the sun shines all the time. Well, I am changing a bit, I want to just write with complete honesty instead –" sketches of my day " will be just that, snapshots from the day, real ones, – I don’t do this to be egotistical; I do it to be helpful. I know that it is always a good thing to read about others and identify with their situations and then take what you need for your own life – that’s networking and sharing. I suppose it may seem a bit narcissistic but it isn’t – I just like to write and I feel that if I didn’t write or paint I’d go crazy – I must and this blog is such a great place for me because I can just throw it out there and someone may or may not read it and if they do they may be inspired by it – it’s a winning deal. So, with all of that proclaimed, I will begin again with this collection of thoughts, consequent words and a scattering of paintings to share the sketches of my day… pam shensky
