New Beginnings....

Happy Tuesday!!
I will start off by saying I haven't done a very good job of meeting my own challenge/goal of posting a card a week on Thursday, yikes! It has been a huge adjustment not having my girl at home and changing jobs! This past weekend, I had the opportunity to find a little bit of me, CREATE...lots of creating, make new friends, spend time with old friends and reflect...all in an amazingly inspiring house!

I realized that over a period of time, I have stopped doing many things that I truly enjoy. 
Many of these things are the activities that have brought peace, joy, and love to my life. 
The women that I spent the weekend with have truly inspired me to take some time to do the things I LOVE
So it's time to stamp and it's time to get the camera back out (it has not been out since graduation day May 2013!!!). Although last night, I did pull the camera out of the drawer I had it so tightly tucked into...these photos were taken with my iphone--but it's a good start!
I also figured out it's good to try new things but I can't do it all!! It's time to focus on a couple of hobbies and just be happy growing and learning in those few things. Too many projects in the fire can be overwhelming and result in no projects being completed. 
I realized too much work is a bad thing!...Especially when one does not get paid OT, LOL! 
A tired Eva is not a creative Eva!!

Thank you God for great friends of gold who offered me a perfectly timed opportunity, what a life saver! Thank you Amy, Laurie and Jen...you are still Angels {{wink}}.
 Here is to new beginnings and to using the whole box of crayons!
Thanks for stopping by!
