more paper cranes . . . .

 Charlotte wanted to color with me  - so we worked on coloring some origami paper. 

 She had to leave before her sheet was finished . . . so that paper crane is yet to come.

  I can't wait to see what her crane looks like once she is done and I get it folded.

 I used some watercolor pencils on my sheet .  I colored it rather quickly and 

dabbed it here and there with a wet paint brush . . . then had to wait

for it to dry before folding a crane.  I like how it turned out . . . but then,

I always like how paper cranes turn out.  

I have been a little obsessed with paper cranes this week!

doodles, paint, and omelets . . . . and withdrawals

 I needed a reminder today . . . 

"Faith isn't a feeling.  It's a choice to trust God

even when the road ahead seems uncertain."

  . . . doodles and paint

. . . and when my husband makes an omelet - it smiles!

I needed smiling omelets today.  

I quit drinking coffee on Thursday.  Just typing that makes me wonder what was I was thinking? I drank a few cups of tea to get me through the headache . . . and I thought that would be it, but NO - there seems to be more to it.  It has been five days . . . I am so tired and feel like I am just off or in a fog . . . I guess sluggish is a good word.  I'm congested and even though the worst of the headache is gone . . . it feels like it is still right there under the surface.   By 3:00 in the afternoon I can't keep my eyes open . . . I have just given in to a 3 hour nap every afternoon . . . and I don't usually take naps.  Of course I had to get online a find out what I could about caffeine withdrawal.  Who would of thought . . . and what was I thinking?  I love coffee!  . . . did I mention that I LOVE COFFEE!

I actually made the decision due to some health issues . . . so it is a good decision.  

I am drinking herbal tea (which is NOT coffee) . . . but I love the message on my tea bag tonight.

early morning . . .

I have way to much on my mind lately. 

It has helped to get up early and enjoy the quiet of early morning. 

Sometimes I wish that time of day could last just a little bit longer.
