Through The Tulips Words of 'Wiz'dom

Hey y’all- It has been a while. Life has been going at its usual fast pace and I’m yet to find the balance that I need to manage work, blogging, social and everyday life stuff. I’ve decided that it’s about time to work on a schedule that will work best for me- Something that will give me more structure to be able to get things done that I want to get done.

I have created schedules but they aren’t with everything and I need something that has everything- work-exercise- social- etc..

In the meantime- I’ve started to detect a hint of Fall in the air. I know some people may not recognize it- but the air has shifted. The feel is different, crisper, cooler. It’s my favorite feel. I’m excited for the Fall and all that comes with it. It brings me joy.

In the meantime- I’ll continue to enjoy the beauty that summer has given us. After all- my tomatoes are just starting to get ripe.

What are you feeling joyous about as we head into the weekend?

Things have been Cray to the Z around here lately with work and also getting back into my regular exercise routine. Thursday is the lunch I’m catering and fingers crossed that it all comes together well and that everyone enjoys themselves. Since I’ll actually be there during the entire time- It will be odd hearing people talk about my food. I do believe that’s the one thing I struggle with the most with what I do- I’m so grateful for feedback, but at the same time, it feels so odd when people are oohing and aahing over things I’ve created.

Tonight I overheard someone say- “You know- everyone sees people make cakes and thinks- Oh I can do that- but then they make it, and it’s disgusting. THIS is cake- and not many can do this.” This was over the cake I’d made for a customer and it made me so happy to hear. It’s why I do what I do.

Once this week passes, I’ll be on the downhill slope to vacation in London. I still have work, but not so much that I feel like I’m swimming in work. I’m grateful, but I have so much to do before my guest arrives and the fun begins.

Happy weekend y’all. I promise I’ll get back to regular posting again soon.

When you are a music lover and are traveling what do you do? You hit up guitar center dallas to see what they have to offer. Personally, if you know me then you know that I don’t play any musical instruments, but that’s exactly what my guitar playing friend recently did when he found himself in Dallas on business. He even found a few favorites that he’s trying to decide whether to wait a while or to pick one up for his upcoming 40th birthday bash. Either way, I know once he gets it- we will all be enjoying his new muse.

Happy Valentine’s Day! I spent the afternoon out and about with my favorite guy. We had a good lunch, plus great conversation. He enlisted my help to find our neighbor’s wife a good deal for him for some new equipment for his band. I was happy to spend a little time checking things out for them, but didn’t take me long to be able to share that she could get 0% interest on instruments at musiciansfriend.com, which will mean a great deal to her, I know as they just recently had a new addition to the family.

Today and every day, we should share love. Even those little things of looking something up for someone or being able to help them find a gift for someone else can make a difference to them.
