Tulip Love Mini



I’ve been meaning to post these American Crafts spotlights I made for A Million Memories but I keep
forgetting. This one holds the crazy amount of tulip photos I took
months ago.

Catalyst 23 – 50,000 Clicks



This week’s creative therapy catalyst
twenty-three
is on things you hoard. I made mine about photos.

I spent a lot of time thinking about this week’s catalyst. While I am
definitely a pack rat, I don’t hoard one particular thing. I looked
around my house and my table and nothing jumped out at me. Until I saw
my camera. Yes, of course. I hoard photos. I take tons and tons of
photos every single day and I don’t get rid of nearly enough of them.
But, I guess in the grand scheme of things, photos and the memories they
preserve are not the worst things to hoard.

Thankful Today – August 16 & August 17, 2008

I could do two for these two days but it would make no sense to separate
these two magical days.
1. For the kindness and generosity of others.
2. For good friends and their good friends.
3. Nature.
4. Smores. My first ever.
5. Camp fires. My first ever.
6. Delicious, home-made food.
7. David, who was incredibly well behaved. Sweet. Funny. And slept
through the whole night.
8. Adam and all the others who were so kind to David and spent lots of
time with him.
9. Annie who let David play bocce.
10. An incredible, truly peaceful 24 hours.
