Do you ever feel like you are just “out of it”? The other day at a track meet one of my dil’s mentioned airbrush makeup. My response was “Huh?” I’ve never heard of such a thing, and I probably desperately need it!
As I was reading blogs the other day, one of my favorites, Flowerpatch Farmgirl, went old school and posted a list of sentence starters. I loved reading her answers and some of the comments, as well. I learned about some new this and that, so thought I would play along here.
Please share in the comments or post a link to your own blog so we can all learn from one another. Help me get in the loop of popular culture!
Playing: We usually play a card game called “Hand and Foot” several times each winter with my aunt and uncle, but card playing season is over once the time changes. Now, my guys work until dark, but I am teaching myself how to doodle and to do hand-lettering, so that is the game I’m playing!
Pinning, Crafting: I’m not spending a lot of time on pinterest, but when I am, I usually pin things for Holy Yoga or my new obsession-doodling!
Doing: I’m preparing to lead a new series for our Friday morning small group. We are doing Fight Back with Joy, and after watching the first two videos and reading a couple of chapters in the book, I know it is going to be just what the doctor ordered. I would like to make some graphics for everyone, but do you think I can teach myself graphic design by Friday? Heehee! You might remember JOY is my word of the year, and it just keeps popping up for me!
Going: Nowhere too exciting for a few weeks, but I did just get back from Holy Yoga Touch training in Memphis. And we took Pearl, our vintage airstream, and stayed on Blue Suede (I think that was its name) street at the Graceland campground. Fun!
Enjoying: Evening gator rides with my husband. It is so fun to journey on the road less traveled with the air in our faces and our eyes wide open to the beauty of nature!
Considering: Last night I heard a tip that I may just adopt. I guess in Mary Kay, sales people are told to make a list every day of 6 things that you want to accomplish. Sounds like a good idea to me!
Thanking: I am so thankful for the beautiful cards on my windowsill, and that I have lovely friends who took the time to send them to me.
OK, friends. Now it’s your turn. Can’t wait to read your responses!

Hi Susan! I am trying to get a copy of 'Yes Please' from the library, but it is on 'hold' for the next two years!! (I am blowing that out of proportion of course.)
I am a coffee addict too. I never drank it until I started work as a new nurse grad. We lived on the stuff. I have a real love for Cafe Vienna, and I'm trying to keep it to a cup or a cup and half a day.
Holy Yoga classes? That sounds like fun 🙂
Blessings,
Ceil

Interesting and fun post. Forget the airbrush make-up. We had it done for both my kids weddings and I saw nothing different about it. I think it was a fad. Don't feel out of the loop-I love pop culture but that's out of the ordinary maybe for someone my age. I just love current music and reality shows, probably because my daughter has that stuff on and it gets my curiosity!!
I've actually cut down on coffee and I'm not sure why. I went from drinking 4 cups in the morning and 2 in the afternoon to 1 or 2 in the morning and that's it. I loved French vanilla creamer but my sweet tooth disappeared a few months ago (knock on wood), and now the coffee doesn't have the appeal it had. Now, just two straight up black.
Thanks for the visit…I've been bad. Hope to get by more often! 🙂

Your granola sounds so yummy! I love granola as a snack, for a cereal (in a small quantity) and my favorite, to top yogurt. Good for you branching out in to doodling, hand lettering. A friend and her daughter are great at both. I purchased a calligraphy set some time ago but never got started trying it. I have been trying some wood burning which is fun but I have a lot to learn! I love when people send cards too : ) Your small group sounds great and I probably told you before but I just SO love that you named your airstream Pearl!
