Reminders

I love a good quote. 

I saw this one one an article about autism and trauma and using creativity to heal. 

Since I am going through this process of exploring healing, this profoundly touched me and I hope you appreciate it too. I love a good meme for reminding me of things I forget.

Project 52 - Week 1 - Self Portrait

I just started doing a Project 52 with some ladies from a Clickin Moms class I just finished. I figured "why not" and I was right, because the challenge of this week (self - portrait) was hard.

I took an opportunity to try out the window light and had to move the chair a few times to get closer to right.

This is my youngest and I on the first day back to school for the "bigs". We didn't brush our hair or teeth and I thought about brushing my hair but thought "well, this is how I am most of the time so what the hell."

I love how she is looking out like into the world and I am looking at the camera like this is my life. I never show up in photos so this is rare.

Happy New Year and Cheers to new beginnings!!!

10 weird things about me

1. I cry, but not always at the right time.

2. I have anxiety about coupons and box tops.

3. I hate seeing dirty dishes, but hate touching them more.

4. I hide from social events so that I don't have to worry about how     I will act or what I will say and then regret.

5. I hate the phone.

6. I have vivid dreams all the time, If I wake up in one, I will remember it forever.

7. I have lots of odd memories, like sitcom episodes I didn't get to see the end of. There is an episode of silver spoons that pops into mind regularly.

8. However, I have terrible short term memory. I can't recall a phone number to save my life.

9. I like orange juice but not eating oranges, I like eating apples but     not drinking apple juice.

10. I love my kids completely, but they are difficult for me to be around all day. I think they need breaks from me as well.


Everyone is unique, Right? What do you do that you think is "weird"? Perhaps we should celebrate our "weirdness"  :)
