When life is crazy, it's so nice to be doing regular things. For me this week that meant going to Art Picnic and hanging out with some friends over coffee, good conversation and our journals. This has really become a touchstone in my week.

Somehow I missed watching the last 3 (ever) episodes of Merlin, after watching though all 5 seasons! I was glad I waiting and watched them when I could *really* watch them. It's been a wonderful series, from the silly eps to the serious ones and the interesting take that's both a unique interpretation as well as an honouring the tradition of the Arthurian legends. Ah, completion. I love it.

High Tea!! What fun we had! Tea, treats and outfits - as Grandma would say, "What could be bad?" It was so fun shopping with Suzie in the morning for surprise outfits - and seeing Shannon get changed on the streetcar! It was a treat to actually use our china cups and to indulge in such sweet delights. A great day, for sure!

High Tea at Mom's! What a joy this was, lots of giggle, tons of goodies and a gaggle of ladies in out beautiful hats and gowns. I had such a great time.

I am completely loving the treasures that we are discovering as we go through the slides with mom. This is one of my absolute favs.

Our night at the Mandarin! I think I'm probably still full from that meal! It was great to get together with everyone and connect over a great meal.

I think I may have gotten my days mixed up but I loved that we got Mom's body art up for her at her place :)

This workshop poured through me into the world. It really wanted to be born! I had such a powerful experience creating it and it was an absolute joy to lead. I am so glad that you both could be a part of it. My heart is absolutely full hearing the feedback from participants. There's some magic in Thrive1

Shannon
It was such a joy to participate in Jamie's workshop Thrive. To get to move and experience in my own space, at my own pace was amazing and powerful.

With all that's been going on, I thought maybe this would be a time that I didn't get to create a dreamboard but I did. The woman in the centre so perfectly captures how I'm feeling right now. And I feel like her open hand is pointing to those bowls of goodies like an offering. There's so much on this dreamboard that I love. I'm so glad that I took the time to make it.

Shannon
It was nice to take some time and do a dreamboard for the Full Pink Moon. I usually use a board, but the last few months I've being putting them in my journal. Oddly, I don't think it takes less time but it's what's been working for me, and I love having the multiple different pages and fold overs to look at. Normally that would drive me bananas, but not right now. Funny how things like that can change.

What an incredibly special time it was creating this healing body map for Mom. I will always treasure the time we spent together doing this. I loved this process and found it so positive and healing to be creating this together. I love knowing that Mom has it up on her wall!

Shannon
Body Art for Mom Day at Jamie's. This was exactly the right thing to do at exactly the right time.
