I'm Back!! This new year I did NOT make resolutions. Usually I do.I make a list.At first I am all gun-ho about them and eventually I forget about them.I lack consistency.I procrastinate.So no real resolutions were made.I did make a decision however.I decided that I need to make changes. Little by little.One by one. First change: Deal with my procrastination issue.Oh yeah.That's a BIGGIE! Just that one thing will make such a difference in my life! So I will work on it and hopefully other things will start felling into place. Then I will work on letting go of FEAR. That  is going to take a lot of effort and soul searching .

Finally here are three of my humble drawings. Like I said  in a prior post I usually don't share my drawings because I am  too embarrassed!

Virgin aday:A Prayer to Guadalupe

Image
I've missed 2 days of posting for the "Virgin a Day" meme hosted by the wonderful Rebecca . I have been feeling quite under the weather this week.Last night I started feeling worse and now I  guess have a full blown virus. =( Since I've  still had to  go to work through all this, I've been keeping hydrated & medicated. I didn't want to miss today's post so I'm keeping it simple. ♥ A Prayer To Guadalupe: We greet thee and adore thee, Oh Guadalupe Heavenly Rose, Mystical Rose, of Tepeyac Hill. May thy fragrance bless our souls, so sweet is thy savor, Most Beauteous Rose. Thine , too , is the power . Give it to us women , who are thy daughters. Blessed art Though through all eternity . Taken from my book: "Magic From Mexico" by Mary Devine ,PH.D. Have a blessed night!
