Letting Up
September 30, 2008
["Ernestine Elam" :: #1 in a series]
There is so much to share, so much I want to say, but right now I am so tired. I have been moving forward with my foot on the gas pedal as far as it can go for many months now and it is time to pull inward for a bit. I am still unpacking from Squam Art Workshops, still have a pile of papers to sort through on my desk. Today I cleaned my kitchen, unpacked boxes, did laundry, sorted through…stuff. Bit by bit, I’ll wind myself down and shift into a lower gear, but it is going to take some time. Saying no, staying quiet, being still…this is what I need to practice right now.
[A beautiful creation from Bella Wish, also featured in this weekend's show]
I will post more photos and write about this past Sunday’s show later this week, but for now, the lovely Gem is the winner of my book give away. Check out her lovely blog Droplets of Devotion…congratulations Gem!!

Oh how do I love thee? Let me count the ways……
1. Holy crap girl this is fabulous! You never cease to take my breath away with your work
2. The quote – well I took it into my heart love and will use it to remind myself all day today. My wings already exist……..
3. The wisdom and permission you share to go inward to recoup.
