I need to do this more often

From Hey
World, Here I am! by Jean Little:

Today
Today I will not live up to my potential.
Today I
will not relate well to my peer group.
Today I will not contribute in
class.
I will not volunteer one thing.
Today I will
not strive to do better.
Today I will not achieve or adjust or grow
enriched or get involved.
I will not put up my hand even if the
teacher is wrong and I can prove it.

Today I might eat the eraser
off my pencil.
I’ll look at clouds.
I’ll be late,
I don’t think
I’ll wash.

I need a rest.

Photo of the Day – Day 189

I just started Shimelle’s My Freedom class so the photos this month will
be from the class…

I’ve had this alarm clock for over ten years. Originally, I bought it
cause it was the only clock where I could still see the numbers without
my glasses on. Looking at it today reminded me of the days where I wore
lenses and glasses and where I woke up unable to see anything clearly.
It’s amazing how quickly people adapt. I can’t even remember what it
felt like to not be able to see. That’s why I like this photo, a little
snapshot of those days…

Daily David – Day 189

I started taking David to school in the mornings. We got there a bit
early today so we played outside until we could go in.

Catalyst 17 – The Best Me

This is for catalyst
seventeen: what’s a quality you look for in a romantic partner?

Journaling Reads:
Maybe it’s weird that a quality I look for in others should be about me,
but the more I think, the more I realize that the number one quality I
look for in a romantic partner is that they make me want to be a better
me. No scratch that. That they make me want to be the best me. What
excites me the most is meeting someone I respect. Someone whom I look up
to. Someone who inspires me to be better.

And another page inspired by Teresa’s class. This is a new technique I
learned from her. How fun, isn’t it?

Art Journal – Page 6

I took Teresa McFayden’s latest class on art journaling and it inspired
me to create this little page. My art journal has been neglected a lot
lately.

Daily David – Day 188

A black and white one today. Just for fun.

Moments to Remember

Sometimes it’s nice to do some scrapping just for fun. Not cause I have
something due and not cause it has to be perfect, but just cause I have
a bunch of photos I want to scrap. I’m taking Stacy Julian’s Have More
Fun class at Big Picture Scrapbooking. And I decided to have more fun.

I need to do this more often
