• The power of sharing.
• Inspiration.
• My Rainbow Salads for lunch.
• My new iPod touch, replacing the one we got just before the Big Move (thank you Chéridoo). 32gb against 8gb. Oh and this electric blue ? yes.
• Unicorns.
• Love. Truth. Rawness. Cracks.
• Morning kisses.
• Snail Mail.

Hola !

Today is the first real day back to our school routine. Both Witchlets are in school for the full day, Chéridoo is at work, so I find myself alone.

This week, I am thankful for:

• Being organized.
• Having annual visit from Parrain Pierre (our daughters’ Godfather, who is my brother-in-law) from France.
• Pushing through Fear and recording an interview video (you’ll get to see it in December).
• New ideas and projects. Fun !
• Going out of the house.
• Cuddles.
• Magic.
• Working with gems. Setting high intentions.
• New lipstick that makes me feel like I’m a badass.
• Laughter. Family game nights.
• Finding comfortable leggings, so I’m wearing dresses again.
• Celebrating my birthday all month.
• The beautiful Soul Juice necklace from miss Kelly Barton I received yesterday.
• Enthusiasm in my last blogpost.
• My Dylusions Art Journal is almost finished 😀
• Recording videos*

Tell me, what are you thankful for, right now, what is the first thing that pops in your mind ? I’d love to read it in the comments 😉

* Now that I am getting more comfortable in front of the camera, I really want to do a vlog. For the first one, I am asking YOU to tell me what you’d like to know about me (it can be about art, food, living with a chronic illness, family, spirituality… whatever you want to know). So please please please, don’t be shy and ask in the comment or on the facebook page.

Hello !

What a week, my friends. I feel like I am in a tender place right now, in which is where blessings are there to be treasured.

It’s still Friday in my part of the world, almost 9pm, but I want to inspire you to pause for a few minutes what you are doing, close your eyes, and pick 5 things that really made you happy this week. It’s totally okay if you have to think to find it. I know you will find (don’t be shy, and share in the comments or on your blog if you want).

This week, I’m thankful for:

• Care package I receive from a dear Soul Sister, all the way from England.
• Friends, in general. The ones who know you and love you anyway. Being able to communicate despite living far away, for some, and the proximity of others.
• Celebrating Grenouille’s 8th birthday, she felt the Love.
• Talking about tattoos. Pinning what is inspiring me (I think I have my final idea for my next one, will have to sketch now).
• New products from Lindy Stamp Gang ¹. The Mad Hatter line is rocking my world !
• My love of learning (right now, I’m teaching myself how to use Adobe Premiere to make more professional looking videos for you and future online classes)
• Spending the day at the PNE (Pacific National Exhibition), despite me not wanting to go in the first place, and then enjoying some rides at Playland with the girls (I have a masochistic love for scary high sensational rides, that Grenouille shares with me).
• Picking up the 6th season of Criminal Minds at our public library.
• Painting. Getting excited about painting again.
• Indulging in a beautiful necklace from my darling Kelly Barton, and some Spiritual Witchy goodness from The Sage Goddess.
• Seeing what my creative friends are currently doing. SO.Much.Goodness !!! it’s crazy.
• Truths being told honestly, even when coming from a very raw place…
• Having my brother-in-law is always a pleasure.

Hola !

The week Grenouille (My tomorrow 8yo daughter) was waited for is finally here. Squeelings of excitement are non stop since thursday (thank you for painkillers).

I need to be quite short today, because I have a very long to-do list to help me tackle tomorrow: 8 years old is a big deal apparently. And I want her to feel our love (I am thinking a dozens of balloons put in her bedroom while she sleeps, and she would discover it when she wakes up).

This week, I am thankful for:

ʘ Friends. Near and Far. 
ʘ Parrain Pierre (both our daughters’ Godfather, Cheridoo’s brother) is here for his annual visit
ʘ Visual Quest
ʘ Cocktails nights (my husband is getting good !)
ʘ New perspectives. 
ʘ Being one of Lindy Stamp Gang’s Elite Designer
ʘ Taking care of my health and the food I put in my body
ʘ Hope
ʘ The Civil Wars new album (hoping there will be more despite their internal crisis)
ʘ New books
ʘ Symbols

How was your week ? What are a few things that currently fills your heart ?

Happy Friday darlings !

I am so happy it is Friday already. Or finally. Depends on the perspective. 
It is a long week-end for us here in Canada, which means that my husband will be with us for three whole days. And this is precious. So very precious. We wanted to get away a bit, for as usual we are behind and by the time we realize we will have a longer week-end together, everything was already booked. So I guess we will create our getaway locally, it is nice too 🙂

This week, I am thankful for:

• This long week-end. No matter what we eventually end up doing.
• Having dared reaching out to friends, and their loving support.
• Real smoothies, like SMOOTH smoothies.
• Aromatherapy spray to release me from physical pain, even if it is temporary.
• Our ceiling is finally fixed in our living room.
• Showing up in my studio.
• Visual Quest.
• My order arrived from Sage Goddess. A Manifestation candle to celebrate the new beginnings I am on, and a beautiful ointed quartz that was her July special gift.
• The perspective of writing and receiving snail mail.
• Having called my father. After 1.5year without news.
• Writing.
• New books (two by Brené Brown, and one about Fibromyalgia).
• Being at peace with my Spirituality. It’s okay not to be a Christian/Catholic (I was, but not anymore (long story)).
• Learning more about how food affects my inflammation, and general ill-being. And how to change that.
• I love being on the Lindy Stamp Gang Design Team. It is truly a dream come true (it’s been in my New Year’s Intentions list for years).

Take care, darling hearts.
