I am working on my November Journal. The first pages were hard to fill because this month I'm focusing on the book, The Happiness Project. What to put??? I so HATE analyzing myself!
I'm in therapy! Well, not exactly. But I should be. ;^)
Then I read Vicki's post on
Quilting Without Abandon. Darn it. That is me. So I laid myself down on that couch and ...
It is a start! Made my head hurt and my heart race but it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what makes one happy and then 'abandon' one's self to it! Should it?
Next page! One question is what did you do that made you happy when you were a kid. A dip pen makes me happy!!! :) Cutting and pasting does, too!
I also found some blocks for Vicki's quilt along so that was encouraging. I do believe arranging quilt blocks makes me very happy!
And of course art class with the grand kiddies who are waiting for me to get there asap! Whatever they do, they do with abandon! And that's a fact!

Looks like you are really bounding into November with abandon. Fabulous Fun Journal. A dip pen? How wonderful that you have one and can relive your childhood happiness. Go Forth My Friend with Abandon...
love dip pens myself, and i think playing with grandchildren is a great lesson in abandoning expectations, and embracing ... what you love!
some lovely things that you love to do!
abandon yourself to the sheer joy of creating!
