My mother-in-law saved her hankies and when she died, I was the blessed recipient of these lovely little pieces of cloth. Because I have a bad case of the sneezes today, I decided to pull out these useful pretties. Last summer, at Jenny's beautiful backyard wedding, I hung them on the clothesline. I thought it was a precious idea, but Jenny (those opinionated brides!) nixed it. Not wanting to call attention to our clothesline, I guess it made sense. So, April sweetly unpegged them and I shoved them in the entryway chest. Today I pull them out again and think of my mother-in-law who was always so nice to me.
Also, in the entryway chest . . . Pom Pom's bees!
A clown (and a granny) can't have too many finger puppets!
So, I had to take this bee outside to visit the gnome and buzz around. I'm still in my pjs, but no one stared.
Bzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!
Because my instrument of choice is the kazoo, I can make my bees buzz, but today we buzzlessly (the kazoo is in one of my purses) checked on the pansy bed.
I am so thankful for this little pot of goodness. I can't stop sneezing and had been blowing my nose on paper napkins (lazy)! My auntie uses this magic elixir on her feet when she feels cold and tired. Its fragrance is a bit much for Bill, so I don't do it very often. It is my friend today, for sure.
I'm really enjoying THE CREATIVE CALL and I came upon a quote that I think you will love:
"This, then , is the beginning: to know that we have a right to the creative and to follow it where it leads. Why should that be so difficult? We know things when we are very young that we forget as we age." ~Deanna Metzger
"When I'm operating at my best, my work is my prayer. It comes out of the same place that prayer comes out of --the center, the heart." ~Matthew Fox, PH.D
The author, Janice Elsheimer, speaks about "playing by heart" so that's what I hope I do today, and that's what I hope YOU can do today, too! Big LOVE! PP
