Hi Everyone!
Hope you're all well!
Thank you for all the well wishes about my promotion. It's going well. More hours, more everything! LOL! Just taking it all day by day. I'm truly so grateful, for everything! I know I have said this many of times, but I can't believe the changes that have occurred within me and around me.
One of my neighbour's little girls, always runs away when she sees me. But, it's what she does afterwards. She runs to the grass and finds the dandelions. Picks a bunch for me, runs back, puts them in my hand, gives me a hug and tells me, she loves me. Elaina is 3 now. The name Elaina, is of the French origin and means "bright, shining light". We are all bright shining lights. We are love! We are all worthy! Make sure to hug yourself everyday and give yourself a bouquet of flowers! You're special. We will all find our way. We have to be true to our souls! When you listen to your soul, it's surprising where it will take you! Sometimes, you might not want to do what it's saying because you don't know what the outcome will be, but that's the fun/scary part! LOL! 💗
I did manage to finish a painting! I have to admit, even if it's an hour, coming home and doing a little painting, I truly love!
Here are some progress pictures!
Big Hugs!
Hope you're all well!

There's still some leaves on our trees.
And, a little friend came by to say hi!I did manage to finish a painting! I have to admit, even if it's an hour, coming home and doing a little painting, I truly love!
Here are some progress pictures!
Finished painting. 8 x 8 canvas.

It’s sooooo good to hear from you! Your new art is beautiful and you are such an inspiration with your words and your art, sending you a huge big hug!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy for you, Stacey! I love your Halloween Baby Crow with her little red boots and your First Snow Baby Crow with her red hat and pom-pom!

The little crow seems to be a bit surprised about the first snow - and so cute!
ReplyDeleteI love what you wrote about that little girl. It's so precious. At the German School where I teach there's a little girl - she's a kindergartner - who always comes running and gives me a hug when she sees me. My favorite part!
Love your work, so beautiful! I love the photos, too! Have a lovely day ☺
ReplyDeleteHey Stacy,
ReplyDeleteJust an FYI, I went into my comments to remove a spammer and found several of your comments awaiting moderation. I have no idea why they were snagged. So sorry:(
The First Snow painting is so adorable! So happy that you are loving what you do - that is so very important for sure!!! Many hugs and blessings!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your promotion! and big hugssssss!!!!!
ReplyDeleteP.S. Can I ask you a favor? Could you say something nice to my friend Arza? HERE. She's a darker shade of blue but at least I got her to start blogging again. I owe you one! Make that two!
Dammit, she just changed her address: HERE. Pardon my French!
DeleteThat's such a sweet thing of you to do, Blue Grumpster. I, too, shall stop by and take a look-see.
DeleteThank you. It was very kind of you to visit my dear friend Azra.
DeleteCongrats again, Stacy. I'm so glad things are going well. As you can see by the lateness of this comment, I'm behind on readings. Things have been so busy. But I love coming here and finding your bright words. You are right, each of us can shine with and for another.

ReplyDeleteHey Stacy,
ReplyDeleteHope you're still loving your job and that your weekend has been and continues to be wondrous.

Hi Stacy. Love the art - Blue was right, your paintings are wonderful. Have a wonderful week!
ReplyDeleteHello Stacy, my name is Stephanae McCoy and I was directed here by a friend of mine, Khaya Ronkainen as she linked to one of your pieces of art. I'm so glad I stopped past because your art is exceptional and your words in this post are golden. Thank you!! ~Steph
ReplyDeletelove your posts, love your baby cute crow. Love what the little girl does for you. she is a little ray of light indeed. Well i am back blogging again, whats the promotion about ? Hugs June x
ReplyDeleteHow I have missed you Stacy, missed your crows, your paintings, gosh it will take me a while to get all the blogs I want to visit but I'm back and how I've missed you. My photo is a bit squashed but, and I don't have blond hair it's grey lol xox
ReplyDeleteAnd also I had to move out of the apt I was in as I had a nervous breakdown. So everything but books and bookcases and some stuff precious to me was kept. I managed to hold on to two on your little crows that I love so much, and for that I was grateful. I still am xox
ReplyDeleteJust stopping by to say hello, and hoping your November (so far) has been a good month :)
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan

ReplyDeleteI would buy this one in a new York second if I could, broke. completely. Owe a fortune!
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely post. Children can sense people who are kind and loving – Elaina recognizes this in you. Your little painting is darling, would make anyone smile. Thanks my friend for your wise words that come straight from your heart. Take care.
