Today I am grateful for solitude. Those quiet moments of in between times when I’m all alone in my studio, or out on a walk, or just sitting very still and quiet in the middle of the afternoon.
Solitude
Josh Garrels
A last-minute road trip to see the amazing Josh Garrels in concert and get to see my dear friends Hilary & Justin (who drove 5 hours from out of town to hear Josh play!!) was the highlight of my day. Those two dear folks are pictured above. I did not manage to snap any photos of Josh preforming, but you can find some great live videos online. Which, if you have not heard Josh’s music, please go and visit his site. He is offering his newest album (an incredible, soul-stirring body of work) for free download HERE. While you are at it, go visit his wife’s Michelle’s site too. Michelle is an incredible artist who makes ever element of her life, her art. She does gorgeous and meticulous work and is a super talented photographer to boot!
Day 4
Self employment. It has it’s ups and downs, and crazy emotional swings. Some months I am giddy with joy of owning my small business, and other days I ask myself over and over, “what in the world am I doing?”. But, overall, I love working full time for Binding Bee with my whole heart. I get to work with amazing customers and people all over the world, set my own days, work from home, travel to different places around the states selling my wares, and have autonomy and freedom on all levels. It’s hard work, but it is so rewarding.
