my favourite thing this week- all of it

December 23, 2012 by Nancy

I have loved the commotion this week. I think many love peace but I seem to love commotion. So many people around, in and out, parties and unplanned visits and teenagers everywhere and long chats and short jokes and lots of work that made me feel proud and happy, taking my niece and my daughters … [Read more...]

naughty and nice

December 18, 2012 by Nancy

I have had my moments of both this year.  I hope you have too. Highlights of naughty include eating a 2kg bag of jubjubes over an undisclosed period of time and leaving only the green ones which we all know taste like mouthwash.

It was a regular Friday

December 17, 2012 by Nancy

One of the very hardest sights in  the wake of the horrible tragedy at Sandy Hook Elementary is the survivors with their steady, young voices,  who have said, with confusion "It was a regular Friday" I can barely stand to watch these children describe how the regular was yanked out of their lives … [Read more...]

move over martha

December 13, 2012 by Nancy

I have many talented friends, including one who can put both legs behind her head while she is sitting. One in particular has an extraordinary way of making things around her beautiful- and I mean extraordinary. She takes sheer joy in everything she does. Every year she has a coffee morning with … [Read more...]

my favourite thing of the week- feeling useful

December 10, 2012 by Nancy

There is something transformative about feeling useful. It is sharing our gift. It makes me feel alive and worth something bigger than myself. I do several Original Family Portraits a year.

favourite moment this past week- Christmas Pageant

December 3, 2012 by Nancy

In the pouring rain yesterday, I went to my Godaughter's Christmas Pageant. It was two hours in a hard chair Several lines were forgotten Some characters shouted their lines at the top of their lungs Some whispered their lines Some nudged others, some forgot they were on stage and went off into … [Read more...]

Just a little heart attack

December 1, 2012 by Nancy

This is hysterical but really makes an impact and leaves us with a lasting memory that might serve us well one day. Well done. Hit me with humour and something I can relate to (like who has time for a common cold let alone a heart attack?)  and I will remember it forever. Please pass it on to … [Read more...]

November 30, 2012 by Nancy

 portrait of mrs. so and so~ art studio for children   The things my little artists say crack me up. And make me think. One of my feisty cats calls me NANCE ROMANCE.
