Maybe . . . I can blog each day for 21 days . . . in May

I have become one to really notice the habits of people I admire... and if possible, practical or worthwhile.. maybe let that inspire me to take some action in that direction.  So.. I have been very inspired by the recent 30 day blog challenge artist Flora Bowley gave herself... and ... since I am going to MEET HER THIS MONTH... (omg VERY excited) I thought Maybe.. I can blog 21 days in May.. leading up to my trip to Bali (not sure how I'll be for internet use over there.. Santa hasn't brought me an ipad yet, and our laptop is heavy and clunky.. so I'm not sure if I'd take it... ) and.. not sure if I can blog on weebly from iphone? hmm.

So.. today.. some pics from my beach walk this morning... since a very special guest made a star appearance... 

a bit grey as we arrived.. but just over the dune the warm sun was rising... as it does

and taking the opposite route to which we usually walk.. we were greeted with this spectacularness around a bend in the path... (usually this is shining on my back)... and I am reminded of the idea that when we do just one thing differently.. like drive down another street on the way home or to somewhere... or walk on the other side of the street.. any little shift... can change the energy.. and gift you with a little surprise.

and here's the special guest... a grey Heron... I notice heron's on my travels almost every day!  and today I loved the way our little dog Aura ran up to this one.. only to have it stare her down... then they held eye contact for a few moments... until the heron decided it was time for her to go . . .

bye for now, 
I promised myself I would paint this morning and my love came in and 'caught me' on the computer.. and reminded me so!!


with love,
Denise xo
