28 Things to do before I turn 29...

Thank you Hula Seventy,

you very much inspired me today with your list.

http://hulaseventy.blogspot.com/

I have decided to start my own list and see how much

I'm able to accomplish by my birthday in October.

I better get a move on it...I'll be back with my list,

it's going to take some serious & not so serious thought.

I do know what I want my first number to be...

1. Take a pottery class & make something that I'm proud of.

...to be continued.

that make me smile. Thanks to my friend Karen,

I have just discovered the works of artist Chris Roberts-Antieau.

Chris says her art is "about the joy and wonder and humor

that's all around us, everyday. She applies a child's eye to adult realities

reminding viewers not to take themselves too seriously."

I know a few people who need to apply this principle to reality,

it would make life a lot more enjoyable.

my butterfly plants are blooming, yay

a squash, or zucchini plant(not sure which one yet),
has sprouted from the area where the compost pile used to be,
so exciting & the basil re-seeded itself in the same spot, haha

centerpieces at the divisional party my friend & I decorated for work

it was carnival themed so cotton candy, confetti & balloons did the trick

signs we painted

cool photo op with the left over balloons
