Throughout my years of working with children; I often paint, color or draw right along with them. We talk. We share. And when they're finished, the real work begns.
I was reminded the other day of a water color painting I'd done along side a child I was working with. When she asked me what it was, I teased that today: "I am a 5000 pound blue and purple balloon." We laughed together.
Recently, I'd been feeling the same. Taking action is important to me. I knew there was a diet in my future. The old reliable cabbage soup diet always gets me back on track to eating healthier. The week of regimentation gets me feeling lighter and rids me of my most recent bad eating habits.
With cabbage soup, cabbage soup and more cabbage soup; I try to make the other foods that are allowable as pretty and artistic as possible. I find I enjoy them more when I've invested a little time in preparation...and then, the color and designs are all so pretty.
Today's the last day. I'm only feeling like a 2500 pound balloon, but I'm on the road!
Happy Sunday everyone!
