Two new art journal pages


I believe wise women gather strength from every trial they have gone through. I plan on being in that group,Lord willing,for a very long time..putting each trial to good use. AND God truly does work it all for my good. I believe in the strength He gives me and I do it by adopting that same mind that God has.  It is all working for my good.

from blog land..good thoughts


Some days it is just hard to get your mind set on good things, but even when feeling a bit blue we can change our way of thinking and do the next good thing that will bring those wonderful serotonin baths to our brain. Many times it is truly to get the right mindset, think on things above as scripture says! Usually the mind comes first the feelings later, and then action helps to set the right mood for the moment. EX: unless you are a kid...You are NEVER going to just feel like excercising but do it and you begin to feel better,keep at it and you see changes. Same way with our thought and attitudes you have to put in the effort, on that note check out the link below for a very insightful list of 15 things to give up in order to be happy and no worries chocolate is not on the list!

WELL...since the 10th of march my life has had some changes...which has concluded in having an LAVH...for those of you that are not into medical jargon that is a nice way of saying a hyseterectomy! BUT it is all good, had alot of trouble from one medication before surgery( similar to ditropan), and that set me back in the MDD(Major depressive disorder) world that I fight so hard to stay out of..that was a rough rough patch..but 8 days later my meds came back nice and strong in the ole noggin and on to surgery which was smooth sailing thanks to an awe some GOD who hears the prayers of his chidren,a very good obgyn, Dr. ( Meredith Mitchell), and an amazing hospital staff at Beaufort Memorial Hospital here in SC. PHEW that was a long sentance to get out! I am now 6 days into recovery mode with three weeks off at work and alot of healing time in front of me. HUBBY is spoiling me very nicely and friends and family have been wonderful. All in all..I am a blessed woman! so..on to the art.....
