one has turmoil and we hope and pray that no one comes to harm as a result.
What Do You Say to the husbands who are dealing with this?

What Do You Say?
I have 2 friends who are suffering and ask myself,
What Do You Say?
One has a very predictable journey with and end in plain sight,
one has turmoil and we hope and pray that no one comes to harm as a result.
What Do You Say to the husbands who are dealing with this?

Beautiful B&W
The class was asked to make a Black & White picture.
I do not think in black and white and found this rather difficult.
Using the layers helped tremendously as I was able to keep going back and upping the contrast which my photo seemed to be lacking once the colour was removed and it converted to black & white.
However, I am so pleased with the result.
You would not know it was a pale pink tulip before the process but the result is wonderful (I think so anyway).
Another 'Thank You' to Kim.

Thoughts on Fear
The fear of what might happen next and the possibility that things might be in some way able to get even worse are close to paralyzing.
You hear about people who go through something and you wonder how they do it
then
it happens to you!
You realise that the passing of time happens in what appear to be two separate realms,
some things whizz past so quickly and others take on a slow motion persona of their own.
The saying 'One Day At A Time' becomes your mantra and at times one agonising minute is followed by the next minute seemingly stalking up behind the last in slow motion.
You know it will end,
but
will it end the way you yearn for?

Kim asked us to write 10 truths about ourselves, mine seemed rather small and I knew that it would be good to put a photo in with the post, so........
I put my 10 truths on the petals of a white camellia flower I recently took a photo of.
The outcome is not as brilliant as I would have liked but it gives you the idea.

What light from Yonder window.....
Am getting further and further behind in my assignments for Kim's Beyond Layers Class.
One, that I have yet to get done was to find a space and make it into a mini light studio.
You need a table and a backboard or two and your camera. Plus the light you have taken days to find.
I have found the best light in the house, it is in the bathroom, and it really can be quite perfect with the light diffused through the bathroom glass.
Here is the tricky (impossible) bit.
I worked out where I could sit on the edge of the bath to get the correct light, good thus far.
However, next comes the table to place our items to be photographed on, do you think I can get even a mini table in the bath and sit near it to take a photo? Not likely.
Add to this the 3rd item which is back boards in white or cream to bounce the light off, ( I hope you are getting a mental picture of all this).
Juggling boards, table camera and item,
No, it just will not work.
"What light from yonder window falls?"

I am in the middle of my list of things that make me happy.
Then I decided to write a note to Kim who is running this course which I am way behind on but oh well.
I would just like you to know that although I am WAY behind in the projects that you have given us,
somewhere you mentioned...
HAVE FUN with this
and I am.
I refuse to beat myself up about being behind with the lessons,
I am still learning lots
and
chances are you will run this again and I can sign up again,
(even if I was up to date it is doubtful that I would remember everything anyway).
Maybe you could give us work on the word 'freedom' I am so enjoying the freedom that I have granted myself NOT to get upset about being behind, it is quite divine.
Back to my list
Happiness is life
and living it the way I choose.
(Just so that I do not sound too awful, I am kind to others, do drive more or less at the speed limit and pay taxes.)
