Over the past several weeks it seems that I have had very little "me" time. My job has been very demanding of late and that combined with all of the TV shows that Mike and I watch has left very little time in the evenings for reading books, cross-stitching or stamping. Frankly, I really need a day in the woods somewhere to recharge my batteries.I need to go somewhere that is inspiring! I think the ladies in these pictures taken on March 3, 1950 by photographer Gordon Parks look inspired by something. They look thoughtful. I need to get in touch with my inner spirit. Maybe I should listen to the music of Bach as that always brings me closer to my spirit.
Other spirit boosters:*an art museum
*listening to a symphony concert
*taking a drive in the country
*spending a day with wonderful friends
*reading a good book all day long
*walking through Bainbridge Gardens
*listening to the ocean waves
*feeling a soft breeze
I will be working on getting inspired this week!

I always get a little anxious this time of year...I don't know why...I think it is because I run around to all these practices for end of year things at school...maybe its just me needing a break too...I know I could use one! LOL! :)
Hi~ Hope this finds you a little better- those are always hard feelings. Have you ever gone out to Cantigny in Winfield to see the gardens and the McCormick Mansion? It's a beautiful place to see. How about the Morton Arboretum? Hope you can get some "me" time soon!!!
Beautiful photos on this post, Laura. I know what you mean about pace, stress. That list of yours -- I could use a few pointers these days. Woefully down. Missing my mother, I suppose. Writing about her helps. But it doesn't make it better.
I hope your stress and pace eases up soon. You've had such a lot on your plate; it's time to have time for you -- in the woods or out.
Oh! Congratulations are due! I saw your banner in "Artful Blogging!" Well done! And a good choice by them -- your banner is terrific!
