Mystical Creativity - May 2007

My most creative self!!!

May 24th 2007 20:44
country charm

This is the room we spend most of our time in. It's where i'm my most creative self. it's the whole reason i fell in love with this home. tall wood covered ceiling with twelve windows. sooo much light,looking out onto our hill which is where we put horses. grass cascading to tree lined woods.
country charm
many fire lit nights spent here. game night, smores made, late nights watching DVD's, snow falls watched,crosses made, ideas brought to life,puppies grow up and meet new moms and dads, dreams talked about, insence lit. romantic dinners for two, sunday dinners spent at the table with moose and bear plates. i've decorated it with a country flare, but cabiny charm. still need more of that cabiny charm, but we're getting there.

i LOVE being here. i feel alive here! i dream, dance and kiss here. maybe we wont be here forever <shrugs>. who knows, but for this time in my life, this is where i'm suppose to be.

Spring clean!!

May 24th 2007 09:10
Took down the 10 sets of curtains in the great room/porch and threw them in on gentle cycle, emptied drawers in the kitchen and vaced them out, then wiped them clean. i still have cabinets and drawers to go. moved the great room back around like it was before i let my daughtrs boyfriend move it. i thought it was soo nice of him to do so. i heated it and almsot cried when i walked in, but i try hard to not hurt people. i've raised my children that way too and i think it's a good qaulity. someone does something nice for you, you should be kind. it's notlying i don't think. it's being polite and just not hurting others. you just don't ask them to do it again. i think the reason i hated the room, is sooo many things where off centered. i'm kind of a neat freak and like everything pretty much straight. maybe an occasional corner chair. worse, he put my china cabinet "Blocking" a window. i LOVE light and although there are 11 other windows in thatt room, i still missed that one window.

it's all back to normal though and taht felt nice to walk into. i can't wiat to do more spring cleaning tomarow. but for now, i'm off to bed.

The Banana wrinkle fighter is what Kaitlyn and i did first. It was stinky i thought. Banana smelling ofcourse, BUT smashed bananas are kind of gross. we smashed and smashed but there where still chunks here and there, so putting it on was kind of gross. once we got it on and had a great laugh at each other.it wasn't horribly bad. it did start to burn some, so you could tell it was working almsot like an exfliater. jsut a little burn, but then again, i do have very sensative skin. by the ten to fifteen minutes, the stuff did get hard. when it came time to rinse it off, it wouldn't rinse super easy, so we used a rag. when we where done rinsing with warm water, we follwed with cold to close our pores. dried our faces and then used face moisturizers. now as soon as thsi was all done, we noticed a huge difference especialy on my face. my face looks brighter and feels extremly soft. i've been using wrinkle stuff for a long time and they havent changed the small wrinkle under my eyes, but i swear by one Banana treatment i could see a tiny difference. i'll be doing this Banana treatment until our bushel is gone. now Kaity is turning 18, so she realy didn't need this treatment. i didn't tell her what it was for and that she didn't need it until we where done. <huge smile> she said "What!!" now she wouldn't have said that if it wasn't a little gross. lol she did like it in the end. her face was fresher.
1.i figured it would be a great thing to teach her for further down the road. 2. i figured at any age, stuff like this can't hurt 3. i'm sure there are other benafits to doing it.
next we did the 2eggs and 4tbsp olive oil hair treatment. mix the whole eggs, with the oil, rub in hair and massage in well, then wrap with seran wrap. This wasn't smelly or anything. i mean, it smelled like olive oil mostly. ilike the smell of that so it was fine. leave on ten minutes, then rinse well. it rinsed out pretty easily. nothing gross. then i washed my hair twice with shampoo to get out the oil. i use to live by hot oil treatments and i have sooo many expensive "Hair repair stuff by ST.Ives, Garnier, Revlon and the likes. This works just as good, and maybe even a little better then some of those. "Yes!!!" saving money for other things. i like that!!

Gardening

"I could just scream, i'm sooo excited!!" <soft smile> we have sooo many flowers already started and ready to go in. i'll put a Faerie circle in the middle. havent decided exactly how or what i'm doing with that. i'll figure that out as i go. i have some faerie statues, mushrooms and such to go in. dads heading to gte the tiller now and till it up for us. we have fencing to go around it already. it's a 40ftX40ft area for this garden. i'll take pics as we go. hopefully my flowers survive!! i have about twenty-forty sunflowers to flantalong one fence side. i may just put a sunflower in each corner, and then some against the house, some against our horses lean too,ect.
dads also picking up HUGE poster boards for me and Kaitlyn. we're going to draw out and mark some of the places where people where taken, shot, ect on the posters. i think by doing so it will make it more "Real" for Kaitlyn. i cried at sooo many spots last night, just showing her and reading it out loude. especialy the spots they took them to be shot, with the hose guy standing there to spray their blood down the drain. what goes through ones mind, knowing their about to be shot

Banana Wrinkle Fighter

May 20th 2007 20:34
Banana is a wonderful anti wrinkle treatment. Mash 1/4 Banana until very creamy. Spread all over face & leave on for 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with warm water. follow with a cold water rinse to close pours. Then pat dry.

Homade silver jewlery cleaner

May 20th 2007 14:50
just drop your silver jewlery into Ketchup over night. rinse with warm water in the morning and it will be sparkling again.
To clean diomond rings, just brush with white paste toothpaste. it'll be shiny and new looking!!
now, i've done the toothpaste, but not tried the ketchup with silver. The toothpaste works wonderfully. just remimber to use hubbies toothbrush instead of your own. <huge laugh> just joking. i keep old toothbrushes for cleaning just this such, grout and small spaces. <soft smile>

Faerie Tree Art and daydreams

May 20th 2007 05:58
Studio

went down and wondered around in my studio a bit daydreaming. i havent been down there since before winter. we live on 11 acres, all feilds and woods. so mice tend to wonder or atleast i'm afraid they wonder, down there. it was nice looking through my craft containers. i plan on working on Fairy tree art again soon. i'm using the faerie names and descriptions for me and the kids, and making us each one.
Feary art
"This one still needs it's Faerie, but it's the first i ever made."

worked a few hours on Non-Profit

May 19th 2007 06:15
Roadside Crosses
Buckle Up & Save a Life!"
i spent a few hours tonight on my non-profit. i soooo missed doing that and had wished while i was away, i would have brung stuff with me. <soft smile>
i wrote Rachael Ray an Email. i know it's a long shot, but thought it's worth a shot and i adore her. my friend was just on her show, so maybe it's not that HUGE of a long shot. i have her actual adress and will send her my newsletter and such. i'm going to cut out a strip of our crosses to put on the envalope. maybe that will catch some attention. i have Montels addy too. i can't find oprahs. just her E-mail. i wrote hervia that but it's a HUGE long shot. i'd rather have her addy. i've been getting newspaper addys from all over, and news station addy's. i'll start sending newsletters and such soon. just trying to find some way of getting our name out there and find victims family membors for donating our crosses. i'd like to, not exactly replace, but put out my crosses as an addition. when you see our crosses, you'll know what these people lost their lives for. i know everyone may not wonder why these people died, but i know i do. if you see sooo many "Buckle up & save a life", and know taht many people died from no seat belt, some people may decide to buckle up. i know i would and if just one life, or a few lives can be saved, it's all worth it. i have a "Think Before you cross" Railroad crossing cross,and i personally know about four or five people i grew up with that lost their lives crossing railroad crossing, not wanting to wait. just a town away a couple weeks ago, a family went fishing. dad and son went across, little hirl on her 8th or 9th birthday ran after them across the track and was hit and killed. mom was hit too and in intensive care, trying to save her

"Kaitlyns Photography!!"

May 18th 2007 18:06
Kaitlyn is sooo getting into photography. so much so that she's thinking about taking Photography as a major, and art as a minor for college. i have been HUGE in photography for years, just self teaching, although i did take a class. just an away class, but dropped due to business in art and so switching to art was better for me at the time. when i finish art i may go back and take photography again. i'm not sure. there are soo many classes i want to take. my daughter Kaitlyn is interested in just about all the same clases as i am. she would actualy go to colege though instead of an away. she'd love to do photography, fashion design, architec, massage thearapy.... it's time to be narrowing things down. i have half of myphotography course. so i told her she should start taking it, see if she likes it.maybe i can tie it into homeschool next year. i also have my artist class stuff. she could take that.
i just wanted to share some of her recent pics.
