I used to think I had talent. Used to draw and think I was pretty darn good. Lately I’m breaking away from my views of myself and I find it harder and harder to do these things. And I’m okay with it. Suddenly, my husband is showing that he is more artistic than I ever was. HE is the one who designed the koi pond, shadowbox fenced in the yard, built the yurt and two sheds; including a trapping shed for me. Now he has expressed a desire to learn music. Bought an electric piano and is practicing AND advancing!
I can play by ear, but trying to read music baffles me.
Suddenly I am the one who has the less glamorous skills!
And it is actually really cool! Watching how we evolve as people and do what makes us happy and build upon our skills!!
All I can say is; I can’t wait to skin something!!!

Can you cook better than your husband?


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

A person can waste a lot of time doing what’s expected of them rather than what’s really important to themselves.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

Oh For sure in so many aspects of life!!! I feel so free just distancing myself from what my mother expects me to be….especially regarding religion

It's easier if your an introvert. I keep my circle very small.

My circle gets smaller every few months. I am not a people pleaser. Don’t think I ever was one but you have this stupid standard you think you have to live up to. Once that goes away, the freedom is unimaginable

a searching, honest and fearless moral inventory is a good thing to do on a regular basis
