3 Weeks

This is my nails after 3 weeks of not biting my nails.

Hooray for me. I coming up on my 5th week this Tuesday.

Sucked into computerland.

I have been sitting here for an hour just looking at random things. I become hypnotized by the computer. I have errands I need to do and laundry. Get up and move away from the computer.

The Goddess and the Poet

I'm really happy with these drawings.

I used pencil, colored pencils, paint, and rub on imagery.

We went to Disneyland in July

We went to Disneyland this July. We had fun. We were there for three days. I wish we could have gone on more scary rides, but my kids aren't interested and neither is my husband. Tara with the never fairy named Fawn.

We stood in line in Pixie Hollow. It was so pretty that I want my backyard to look exactly the same. The lights and water were so beautiful. The music they played sounded Celtic.
This is Tara with Rosetta.

This is a photo of little fairy houses near the little stream. They lit up as it got darker. I really want to build a Fairy House. They are so whimsical and beautiful.

This is my son Cole.

We were standing in line for Toy Story Mania.

We went on that ride about 5 or 6 times. We all loved it.

How To Stop Worrying and Start Living

I am listening to Dale Carnegie's How To Stop Worrying and Start Living. It's really good. I looked it up and he died in 1955 at 67 years old. The stories he has can easily apply to people today. It's funny to think we are the only people to go through such hardships and self-doubt. I like his advice and outlook. I think for the most part that I am a positive person, but I guess I have let life wear down some of my belief in the goodness of people and life. If you are feeling sorry for yourself and worried then I highly recommend this book. I downloaded mine from audible.com.

Learn to love and respect other people. That is one of his maxims. Not always easy, but I like to compliment people and help them feel better. I think if you are happy with yourself and not resentful then you will see the happiness of life.

I Cut Off My Hair! Hooray!

Bill,my husband, is my hairstylist and he gave me this great haircut. He says it's a faux hawk hair do. I love it! Some of my friends tell me I look good with longer hair, but I really feel awesome when I get it cut short. Thanks Bill for my new hair cut.
