Music and good company

We went out last night with some friends to one of the local restaurants/bars only to remember that the band playing was another friends side project!
Man, can this girl sing.
Not to mention that she is so engaging to watch perform!
The guy playing the guitar is my boyfriends sister's boyfriend (did you follow that!?!) and he is amazing on the guitar. He hopped up with them for a few songs since he and sarah (singer) sing are in a funk band together. So a side note: if you are local (or even if your not) you should check out the Big Ol' Dirty Bucket, you will dance the whole time!
Anyway, it was a great night, even though this isn't a great photo and you can't see the rest of the band or the crowd of people...
Hope you all have a fantastic weekend!

New Moves

I had a visit the other day with a friend, Crystal (in the white top), who came home from NJ for a bit.

We met for coffee/tea and then headed to the common for some hooping with a couple of her friends.

It was such a beautiful, warm day.

I always miss Crystal and am happy when she visits.

And I had been missing hooping.

Also, I finally figured out a move that I had been trying to get for years thanks to a new friend!

So excited!!!

like a wild beast(ess)

I am having a kind of odd morning.

I feel like my head is full of self-defeat before I even get started.

Sometimes life can be hard and scary, sounds silly, I know.

Anyway, I have already had a battle with the package of bacon,

being half butcher and half wild beast(ess) trying to open the damn thing.

But I got it, no worries (I know you were all curious)!

Now I am trying to clear my mind of the emotional garbage that seems to be trying to beat me down so that I can get to work.

I think I need some inspiration.

Any thoughts?

I don't know what I am looking for right now...

So, how is your morning going?

We can all see how disjointed I am at the moment!

A random selection of photos from this past week of adventures, work and friends...

I hope you are having a glorious weekend (I woke up to a beautifully white world this morning!)

Sunset

A sunset at stage for park and the other from my little back deck... I truly do love a good sunset, how about you?

Black and White

Some days my mind seems to be too busy for words.
Today I seem to be thinking in picture.
Maybe I should implement drawing a picture a day as part of my daily routine...

On the wall

Just a little view of some of what I have been up to and what I am working on today...

We finally got a little snow!
I am feeling joyful that it feels a bit like winter...

I went on a nice little adventure through the woods with Veda and my friend Dennis the other day, it was much needed.
I think winter hiking is probably my favorite. (although, I say that about every season when I'm in it)

When is your favorite time to go for hikes?
