"The truth of a life really has little to do with it’s quality. The quality of life is in proportion, always, to the capacity for delight. The capacity for delight is the gift of paying attention” Julia Cameron

Morning moon view from my entryway...paying attention.

It always pains me a bit to put the mandated dance recital makeup on these girls but I guess their bravery for getting up on that stage in front of so many people and their love of doing it outweighs the uneasiness I feel about the makeup. And it's only twice a year.

The last two days have been a bit stressful around here...so today when my youngest was at preschool I hopped in the car and headed up the canyon near my house. I only had an hour but man it felt good to be outside and by myself without any cell service. This year I am trying hard to make time to do something ALL BY MYSELF once a week. Who knows a self-portrait series might even come from it. This selfie thing? It’s freaking hard for me. I feel really awkward in front to the camera but I am posting anyways because it makes me squirm to do this...and that means it’s pushing me outside my comfort zone which is always good. So bring on the awkward off to the side gaze where I am pretending I don't know my picture is being taken....ha! #summersdatewithherself
