Wife, Mate, Mother, Me! • By Gayle Roper

Our proverbial (Proverbs 31) woman found her balance. Through her beautiful example we can begin to find ours.

• We are women - different but equal.
• We are wives - submissive but powerful.
• We are mothers - overwhelmed but ever hopeful.
• We are ourselves - bound but free.
• We are God's - sinners but forgiven children.

It's all in the balance.

AMEN!

I was greatly encouraged by this book. I recommend it to women at any stage in life.

Peace and love to you all!

Another Day

• Leftover chicken chili happens. Even better than the first time.

• New music fills my ears...

• 48ยบ and rising. Will take a walk later.

• Got to see my man this morning, after he left for work! He accidentally left his tools in the back of my car so I had to take them to him. I like when this happens :-)

• I bought a potentially very ugly skirt this morning...

• Laundry WILL happen today. *determined*

• Also bought four skeins of yarn... I guess I plan on staying out of trouble...

• Baby K is active as ever.... but why always as soon as I get into bed?? *tired mommy*

• Received the gift of a fifty (or so) year old set of oil paints! O_o

Ok... laundry and Monsieur le Comte here I come!

peace and love.

Musing

It is a beastly hour to be awake.

I am awake because I fell asleep last night, and woke up this morning thinking about style. Personal style.

and then the thought came.. do I have such a thing? What is "My Style"...

colorful, yes.

old fashioned, perhaps.

a little weird, definitely.

international, yes.


...and then another thought came.... does this style show itself in my art. Do i have a definite style.

sadly, i think not.

possibly a little more comes across in my photography, because of what I choose to photograph. but painting/drawing/design-wise... I do whatever I want...

Is that my style?

What do you think? - Comments and Critiques welcome!
