My favorite painting by an unknown artist.
I am late to the party for Susannah Conway’s August Break 2015, but I intend to follow the prompts through September. I’ll tag them #SeptemberBreak2015 — because I’m not quite ready to return to my self-directed schedules just yet. Additionally, I’ll be writing my responses as my camera lens has decided to malfunction after 4.5+ years of use. *Unless, of course, I find an old favorite to share.
Chocolate chip cookies fresh from the oven. I love so many smells, but surely chocolate chip cookies are the best.

How about that New Year’s Eve spread from last year? Pretty tasty stuff.

The yellow sun brightened the skies today. Yellow flowers speckled some of the floral arrangements honoring a dear friend we laid to rest today. As the sun warmed our backs on a pleasant day, she was there smiling as she always did, wishing for us to keep smiling and finding hope.

Lately a lot of situations and events have pushed me to my edge. I’m living on the edge of my comfort zone. The deaths of two important people shocked me. The constant failure of parts on my vehicle has left me wondering “what’s next?” I’m at the edge, trying desperately not to fall off the ledge. I suppose it’s like that canyon reference I made a few years back. I want to get to the other side, but I feel like I’m going to fall into the abyss between the edges. I don’t know how to be okay with edging outside of my comfort zone, particularly when all the cards must be stacked a certain way for things to work out each month. Looking towards the future and determining the necessary steps fills me with such dread. Perhaps it’s time to face my fears.

I don’t particularly have a trinket I carry with me for good luck. I used to bring my rosary received for my confirmation wherever I went, but it broke. I was quite upset, so I put it up to keep it safer. However, I do wear flowers in my hair near daily, so perhaps the flowers are my talismen.

Our beautiful home. It produces nutritious food and fresh water for us. The dirt beneath our feet give us grounding. It looks like a sparkling blue and green gem from space. We search for other planets just like ours, but surely no other will ever take Earth’s place.

“Smooth” makes me think about the ideal texture of skin and our society’s quest for beautiful, soft, smooth skin. It makes me think of a person who has a certain way about them — someone who can “smooth talk,” or perhaps a “smooth operator.” The expression “smooth as a baby’s bottom” also comes to mind.

My notebook is my constant companion. I may not remember or build up the energy to write in it everyday, but I always have it with me for when I do write. I write out my concerns, which always seems to help relieve the stress and tension associated with them. I write down a list of 5 things I’m grateful for, 5 things I’ve accomplished, and 5 things that make me happy. I write a page and a half of whatever comes to mind. I always feel so much better after writing in my notebook — it’s like the act of writing it out makes everything seem so much brighter.
