Summer is Over

Back to work I go. My summer is over.

We have had many bbq's...these are my kids with their boyfriend and girlfriend in our back yard.

I cut "Betty" bangs.

  
Made a mermaid garden.

 
Got some new chickens.


Colored on rocks.

 
Meditated.

 
Made pendants.

 
Started a Junk Journal.


 Camped a lot.
Canned EVERYTHING!!!
Made my own hand soap, dish washer soap, and washing machine detergent.

I have pulled 1000 weeds, read 4 books and sat up to see every full moon. I have laughed with my red man, and cried with my sister, dreamed with my books, and flew with my art. I have stood barefoot in the garden, in a stream, and on cool grass. I have smelled fresh bread, stained my fingers with raspberries, and kissed a smiling mouth.  My soul is full and I am happy. My life is full of love and now during the next school year I get to share it with all of my sweet students.
