December's books

I read lots of books each month.

I enjoyed this one so very much
I re-read it!
I am just being introduced to the tales of the Cowboys.


This one event defined my parent's generation.


I like to have a fairy tale
and a poem each day.

I am studying snow this month


and each day I have a snow related topic.


While walking with my husband
I talk about what I am reading.

He is a great reader as well.


We both love the Owls.


There are so many different ones so
we have decided to study Owls in 2011.



My friend is a dedicated reader.
She suggested "The Shadow Effect."
This book is very interesting.
I am taking it slowly.


Sharing what I am reading
 is one of the greatest joys I know of.
What are you reading?

Fiction in October

My daughter thought I would enjoy this novel.
I did too.
My friend really enjoyed this tale.
I did too.

I like reading fables
and mysteries.
I am reading
all the China Bayles Mysteries.
China is a herbalist.
These treasures are quick
and so much fun!
I also have stacks of non-fiction
so many books to read!

August Books


I encourage every one to plant native plants.
It is good for the soil and the bugs and the people.

I am
learning to live a joy filled sustainable life.


I am seeing the patterns in nature

and enjoying the Nature
in my backyard.



During the heat of the day I am inside.


I am organizing


and making things for my home



with items already here.


Finding ways to re-cycle

and up-cycle!



I am looking ahead too.


Autumn will come before too long.


I want to make a few bird masks for Halloween.


I am decorating.


In August I use lots of yellow.


As I sort the old fabric I am thinking


of projects I can do.


I am thinking about new skills I can learn.


I love reading natural history books.


I want to learn how to bake gluten free.




I have ideas for Halloween treats!


I may not have a cookie swap


but I so enjoyed reading this book.


Using a mirror for a tray is a great idea.

I will be saving my good glass jars for treats.


I am enjoying being home.
Happy August reading.

June Reading

I seem to have four or five books going at once.
I have stacks of books waiting to be read.



This books has inspired me to keep on taking photographs.

 
I began my study of Venus.
So very interesting how we are influenced by this planet and the mythology surrounding Venus.
I began a Venus journal. I want to document just how often I fall in love.
I just fell in love with fresh salads. I love the taste and crunch of celery.

I think we have contracts and agreements.
I married my soul mate.
I am learning about my archetypes.
I am learning about Cancer and my Warrior.


I am learning about graceful living.

My friend asked me to read this inspiring book.
So far I am nodding my head in agreement with every paragraph.



We watched Avatar.
I so miss my tail and the ability to plug in.

 
I am reading nature writers.

My daughter gave me this delight.


I am reading stories about amazing women,




learning how to unblock my chakras,



and how to be the best I can be.
I am always learning.
I am reading.
