Day 101 - Julie - #365somethings2018 I discovered this awesome woman last night through her blog - Julie Yip Williams. It's about her cancer fighting journey. She lost it on March 19, 2018. What a legacy she left for her 2 young daughters. Her blogs will become a book, to be published through Random House in the near future. #watercolor #indexcard #julie #photochallenge #taleswithfriends#aprillove - RAINBOW - Sometimes there are no rainbows no matter how much you look or want. Then you make your own. #rainbow #lookingfor #makeyourownway #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsDay 100 - Strawberries Forever - #365somethings2018 My strawberries aren't very good. However, the process was soothing. Photo reference @shadow_forever_mp #watercolor #indexcard #strawberriesforever #photochallenge #taleswithfriends#aprillove2018 - INSPIRING BOOK - Anita Shreve is a very good storyteller. Her characters are strong inspiring yet very human women. #inspiringbook #thestarsarefire #anitashreve #taleswithfriendsThe setting sun is as lovely as the rising sun. Can't believe it is 7:30 pm. Spring at last! #settingsun #risingsun #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsDay 99 - IN HEADLIGHTS - #365somethings2018 Some days it is hard to find inspiration. Then your brush makes a mark. You see a possibility and your heart soars again. Photo reference @davidwallaceshoots #watercolor #indexcard #inheadlights #inspiration #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsThere's at least 3 things in life you can't ignore. Death, taxes and the toilet. I've dealt with 2 of them this morning. Pretty good, eh? Now I will march downstairs and heave more old nursing textbooks into the recycle bin. #deathtaxandthetoilet #shedding #lifeissues #recycling #taleswithfriends#aprillove2018 -REFLECTION- My wildlife kingdom. No posing. No rearranging. What you see is what you get. Dappled sunlight and dust. #reflection mywildlifekingdom #whatyouseeiswhatyouget #dappledsunlight #dust #photochallenge #taleswithfriendsDay 98 - Both Sides Now - #365somethings2018 I have this addiction with the elusive Joni. She escapes me but I'm happy with how this Joni morphed into her own. I'm fascinated with her song Both Sides Now. It's where I am right now. Rows and flows of angel hair And ice cream castles in the air And feather canyons everywhere I've looked at clouds that way But now they only block the sun They rain and snow on everyone So many things I would have done But clouds got in my way I've looked at clouds from both sides now From up and down and still somehow It's cloud's illusions I recall I really don't know clouds at all Moons and Junes and ferries wheels The dizzy dancing way you feel As every fairy tale comes real I've looked at love that way But now it's just another show You leave 'em laughing when you go And if you care, don't let them know Don't give yourself away I've looked at love from both sides now From give and take and still somehow It's love's illusions I recall I really don't know love at all Tears and fears and feeling proud, To say "I love you" right out loud Dreams and schemes and circus crowds I've looked at life that way But now old friends they're acting strange They shake their heads, they say I've changed Well something's lost, but something's gained In living every day. I've looked at life from both sides now From win and lose and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all I've looked at life from both sides now From up and down, and still somehow It's life's illusions I recall I really don't know life at all #watercolor #indexcard #bothsidesnow #jonimitchell #photochallenge #taleswithfriends#aprillove - SOFT - The soft light of a snowy April morning. The warmth is kept within, the gale and swirling white on the other side. #soft #morninglight #snow #wind #photochallenge #taleswithfriends
