About Me

My photo
I'm an outdoor kinda girl. I love thunderstorms, sitting with friends and family and having a laugh! I enjoy creating anything and everything. things I love = COOKING! gardening, storms, photos, vintage stuff, crafts, friends, hidden beauties, the underline meaning, music with soul, the wind, daydreams and night dreams, the feeling when you finished cleaning something, fishing with my husband, mountains take me somewhere far away, stars ground me, and people spin me in circles, I carry my heart on my shoulders for everyone to have, thinking before doing, laughter, laughing at your own self, imagination and reality, watching someone discover something for the first time, art being and doing, turquoise, peacocks, LILIES. Dark chocolate. It is what it is! Live It!

It's still here

I'm addicted to books, I feel like I just can't ever get enough of them. I hurry my work up every morning so I can crack open the spine and read. These people are real to me their lives are what's happening. And most of the time I hate that it's over, and don't understand whythe author hasent continued.....I've discovered triologies! One inpeticuluar is the Left Behind Series. Don't know why someone never brought them to my attention sooner. They are wonderful the story the people!! But besides that I can get emotional about what I'm reading and something that has struck a cord with me is this last book. The Help by Kathryn stockett. I loved the book, it was controversial emotional and gave me a heavy heart. I've finished it as of yesterday and I am sitting here bout to start the discussion questions for book group an In the back ground I can hear the guys here at work. Now I'll give you a small back ground it's a construction company we pump concrete out of trucks to make bridges and building.....
It's also a family own and operated business, it started back in the 1960s and there is only 10 people on the payroll.
So I realize that the men hear still talk to each other and others just like we are back in that time frame. And I'm sadden, that I work here, that I live here, that times haven't really changed and I believe that theres just so many more people in this world that we don't realize he hasen't really changed. I feel, see and hear people in their own little bubbles on how the world and other people are. Watching everyday actions of others is amazing, and wondering if that's really what they meant by what they just did or said. I'm am abit naieve in thilnking that others actually realize and understand that sometimes folks are doing something for a reason just the same as if you were to do it. And sometimes if not all you've done the same thing without carring what anyone else thought or whether you hurt someone. I try to stay aware of what I do, sometimes I don't. I get it emotions sometimes get the better or you. But over all I do stay aware of other people and why they may be that way, so that I can understand and hopefully not pass down the neg!

We are continueing on with The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks, which is actually really great to follow with from The Help! So I'm excited to finish and look for ward to stiring up the girls with topics.
