Lemon Cucumber Voss like a BOSS ! (edited!)

What are my hopes for September? 
What do I want to let go of before September begins?

For a much better, clearer answer, I am singing, "WAKE ME UP, WHEN SEPTEMBER ENDS..." by Green Day.
Summer is over, and with summer being over, I am looking forward to fall, crisp mornings, hoodies, bon fires, football, and for Hurricane season to be over! (The hurricane part is why I just want you to wake me up when September ends!!! ) 
 This has been the rainiest summer to date!   
And we went camping in our rv and still managed to have a great time! Even though a bunch of nights were spent cuddling without netflix, but we chilled with candy raided from the dollar store, while we built a nice winter collection of dvd four packs!  




     I had to let go of my summer color palettes. I spent my morning, and cleaned my desk off. A clean slate. Time to put those cool colors up, and start using those warm fall colors in spreads.

    This is the start to my favorite time of the year. Breezes from hurricanes that linger for days! Makes me want to be anywhere BUT in my art room! However, here I am, sitting at my computer, looking out my window,  watching branches, and leaves, my beautiful wind chimes singing their own song, and anything and everything else fall, from the storm Harvey!

     While it may seem like I am complaining I am " stuck in my art room, * I am throwing this out there, I am NOT. I am very thankful I have a room of my own. I have worked really hard to be able to have a space just for me around this house. My husband is lucky to have a man cave as well. We each have our own little hideouts, that we both retire to, when we need "space!"King Bees man cave is called the Honey Comb Hide Out, while mine is, La salle de vie, in French, the life room! I just call her Sally! She's my little mustang. Always a project I am working on in here. And I treat her with kindness and compassion... ( when I am not traveling!) When I am traveling, she sits and collects dust, just like a mustang that only gets taken out for a Sunday drive! And that makes me sad! 

     But getting back to my clean slate. Don't we all need a fresh and new start? Why does the day January first get the fresh start? Simply because it's a new year? This is the fresh and new start, of all things that long in the winter. Longer thoughts, longer cooler nights, at times it might often seem darker longer. I long for each season. As we close one season, to open another, why not take that time for fresh starts? I always try! Here it is the last day of Aug. And You see, I am getting a fresh start! It can be anytime or day of the year. Not just at 11:59 pm on December 31st! Let today, Aug 31, at 1:30 pm, be your fresh start!

     The fact is, sometimes it's all we really need. "A FRESH START!" A fresh start to your morning. A fresh start to a new book. A fresh start, that's why we need really clean art rooms. To make the art a little more fun and fresh! *LIV STONE*

*NOTE TO SELF*
YOU ARE A HOOT! I LOVE YOU AND I AM PROUD OF YOU!

Kisses,

LIV STONE!
