" Objects of Desire "

Ever wonder why we love

what we love at first sight?

Does it linger for only a moment

or does it become our next forever?

This sweet vintage table 

just needed a little love.

After some sanding and two coats of 

paint she was ready for a spot

in the guest house.

Later I stumbled upon

a small half of an old panel door

in the alley and simply

 could not resist her chippy glory.

It fit nicely upon

one of my Prairie Style tables we made

of reclaimed wood.

 I'm madly in love this week and

will be joining some of my favorite

lovelies in blog land.

" A walk in the clouds "

It seems like forever since I sat here and wrote

a blog post and in a small way it has been.

I have allowed the changes in my life to send me 

drifting and let the waves overcome me.

The ocean has thrashed me back and forth

over and over then end to end.

Lord let this life of mine yield unto you

as you leave me with peace and serenity.

I junk when my heart is heavy

this weary soul of mine is uplifted by searching

for that one piece that will speak to me.

An open heart willing to listen and

 love not worrying about the imperfections.

Blessed I am by the unwanted

of another's heart here now

has a place to belong to me.

Returning to where I started, where I belong

and where each of you found a place in my heart.

A new day awaits as I continue

to search, to grow and yield.
