A Random Act of Kindness......



This week I have been busy working on two entirely different pieces of art and trying to get my art photo's ready for my new site. As I was looking through my photo's I discovered how behind I am with organizing my families photo's. So iPhoto book your it!  I use to take photo's and develop doubles and create an album for each of my kids so they would have their own albums to leave home with. Well if there is any hope of preserving some memories of the last few years it is going to be through a digital album. Which I hear is all the rage so I guess you could say I am succumbing to peer pressure...wink wink!

Next week I am off to my old stomping grounds from my days as a clothing buyer. I am excited about the photo opportunities as I take in the sites of Montreal. Oh and I am so hoping that my favorite little pastry shop is still there.

The piece below is inspired by girlfriends garden. She is by far a gal with a green thumb and understands the importance of form and function of a garden. I am just waiting to see her featured in Canadian Garden Magazine as her gardens are beautiful. Yup Jod's that would be you girl.......

After my run today which once again left me a little cold ! I will get this layering for winter in Calgary, down one of these days. I headed to Starbucks to indulge in my new favorite drink which needless to say can become a pricey habit. As I sat in the drive-thru the car in front of me either full of high school or university gals ordered their drinks and were off. I had been thinking to myself  as I waited in line about those starving student days when it meant the difference between a new pair of shoes or eating KD for a month.They pulled off and I pulled up to the window and the gal at the window informed me that my five-dollar and fifty-one cent habit had been paid for by the gals ahead of me! So although they are more then likely never to read this post they defiantly put a smile on my face and truly warmed my heart! Of course I will definitely pay it forward .........Thanks gals for your random act of kindness!
