Comfortable With Uncertainty

If you're not a list person or a planner, what I am about to say may convince you that I lost my mind.  I am following the trend of listing the many ways I want to slow down and savor the end of the year and my holiday celebrations.  I'm not looking to reinvent myself.  I'm looking to be sure I step off the hamster wheel and give myself the experiences that mean the most to me.  If I fit in an oil change and a few minor repairs around the house along the way, so be it!

I'm a bit nervous about my dentist appointment today.  For years my anxiety prevented me from getting routine dental care.  About 10 years ago, I tackled this phobia and started my journey to improved oral health.  Facing my fear, doing the hard thing, was a game changer. Where I was once paralyzed, I am now completely in control and I've found the perfect team to help me.  This is evidence I can do hard things and that when I do, the game completely changes.  In this episode, I'm sharing ways to document and use this type of evidence.  Put your paper crafting skills to use creating your best life!

This quick episode is all about inspiration to shop your stash and looking for multiple uses for the products you already have.  Inspired by a layered stencil set, I am seeing things with a new perspective.  Don't miss my hot tip on changing out your stencil background from a white cardstock panel to a soft pale blue!

It finally feels like Fall here in Florida (not sure how long that will last so I am making the most of it)!  Let's create scrapbook pages about the season and Halloween by focusing on how we perceive them through our five senses: sight, scent, sound, taste, and touch.

As I move into the Fall season, I am taking some time to enjoy summer favorites one last time.  I'm picking fun and easy transitions like color palettes to acknowledge the change at my craft table.

"The happiest days are when babies come." Today was a terrific reminder that you cannot imagine just how good life can be.  We all face struggles, hardship, and grief.  Dark times come to everyone, but the light is just ahead.
