peace dove

A friend has given me a link about origami lately, which
has of course brought me back to crease paper :) Thank
you, Akiyo!

So, when I got some sales, which meant to be Christmas
presents, I wanted to put something in the box to make
it Christmas-y without looking too Christmas-y (does it
make sense? LOL). Anyway, I thought of a peace dove.
I've made a stamp, but I wasn't really satisfied. So I
googled a bit to find an origami dove and I found this
instruction.

I've modified it a bit and voilà..

Yes, yes, with the shadow frame.. ^_^

coffee time

It was dark the last days and so was yesterday, when
I took some photos for the new necklace. But this one
reminded me of a Polaroid shot somehow. So, I added
a frame. It's not the style of my shop, but I'm just
loving it ;)

walk!

Today was a beautiful day. Actually I could have ride
my bike, if I had have (let) repaired the tires (they
are mighty old - so, the back one is now broken). But
I haven't! I'm considering to change the tires myself,
but since I haven't even changed the inner tire once,
I'm procrastinating it... But I felt I need exercise. I've
been missing it since I couldn't ride my bike.


more photos

I decided to go to the city on foot. I thought along the
way. Thinking, that I didn't manage to turn my anger
into something positive lately and how I let it used my
energy up. Things haven't gone smooth the last days,
but hey, they are here for something good, I think.
There are some lessons I should learn from.

(I got a forwarded mail from a friend lately. I just
looked up on google for the origin and found out, that
some things are screwed up in the mail LOL
Anyway, I'm agree with most of her life lessons.)

anger

Sometimes a short phone call could ruin my mood for
a whole day. Like this noon. Afterwards I felt the urge
to walk to calm me down instead of the cleaning I've
aimed for this morning. So, I did. I went to the forest
and walked around for about one and a half hour.



The forest was inspiring as usual, but the walk couldn't
really calm me down. I feel somehow really exhausted.
Ugh!!! I'm considering to ignore any phone calls or even
to unplug the telephone on my free weekends...

looking forward

The flyers, the posters and the tickets for our next gigs
are ready. We will sing at three different places and three
great musicians will be accompanying us. I'm looking
forward to those gigs! I'm practicing diligently at home
under my son's supervision - he's an expert since he
knows the songs quite well from the choir weekend :)
