"I think that's what I love about life. There's no magical master plan. It's just unfolding before me."
~Cate Blanchett
When life is unfolding, there are some parts that are clear, concise and focus'd ... while at the same time there are parts still unknown, still becoming, still a bit blurred...
Hmmmm...to me that IS magical, and, that IS life!
"What really drew me to re-imagining Let It Be was the backstory and turmoil which surrounded it creators at the time of recording. It's an atmosphere that clings to the cover. Gone is the swirling freedom of Revolver, the colour of Sgt Pepper or playfulness of Abbey Road. Each Beatle has divided themselves from the group and occupied a solo corner. In my reinterpretation I wanted to extend the time period these snapshots were taken in, drawing influences from their solo careers, and suggesting that, with time, those self-created barriers would fade - even if they would never play together as a group again.
And purely from an artistic angle, it's always an interesting exercise to work from recognizable models. Unlike drawing fantastical creatures the audience have a yardstick to measure imagery to. So I enjoyed the challenge of depicting John, Paul, George & Ringo but in a new form, and striving for a balance between a believable likeness and personal expression.
Plus I like drawing big noses, and they all have a great collection."

But if this ever changing world in which we're living. Makes you give in and cry. Say live and let die.

~The art of the landfill comes and goes. Some - notably Mad Mark's Castle - was produced by the homeless. Some of the best was done by a group of four artists who lived elsewhere but came to paint on the weekends. They called themselves "SNIFF" and painted on concrete blocks and the decking of a floating dock that washed onto shore. Their work is raucous, erotic, and brilliant. They painted like inmates escaped from an asylum singing in four-part harmony.

This is what it says on the beads... We thought it said something different... But...I decided to post because I liked the Beads, Nail & Wood with Dan & The San Francisco Bay~Albany BULB, Albany California~
רוח שטות זורמת בקלות,
אופטימיות נצחית תרופה
המרפא כל דוי ולב שבור
חיוך שובב הצית שממה
לצון פרץ לו במחול סוער
עולה אל על נוגע במרום.....
Let it be..Whispers words of wisdon, Let it be. - The Beatles
This song has gotten me through some of the hardest times in my life. It speaks such a great message, sometimes you just have to let things be and trust that God will work them out. I just have to let it be. Please View On Black

It's the final day of Map Week here at id-iom and today we'll be tackling Ordnance Survey map 136 a.k.a Newtown, Llanidloes and surrounding area.
Do you enjoy sticking your snoot in other people's business?
Have you a fondness for getting involved where there's no need?
Are you unable to let things lie?
If you answered yes to any of or all of the above questions then 'Just let it be' is just the product for you! It's ideal to give you that extra little nudge you need to justify to yourself whatever decision you're about to make. It's that simple! 'FRANK! Just let it be!' is a common enough refrain heard up and down the country on a Friday night. The Beatles even famously sang a song about it where the mantra of 'Let it be' is repeated many times. Sometimes it's just not that easy though...

This self portrait was hard to manage with Frodo trying to pull the sheets and my hair! Unfortunately I don't have a behind the scene photo of that :(
My photo was featured in the Grae magazine.Yay!
I was going to post a video of our performance yesterday, but the uploader hates me. So this is the next best thing. Besides, I need to make myself happy until I'm able to go to bed and not think about a thing, so I'm looking at my backstage photos.
Yesterday was all about love. It was about the love for music, it was about the new friendships and the feeling that things will always be this fun and new. It was about joy. It was about the love for the stage (even when it makes me feel like I'm going to pass out). It was about the backstage and the jokes and the plans for future adventures. It was about noise. It was about The Beatles. It was about a choir of people whose names we barely knew three months ago. It was about students who had never seen each other, until a couple of months ago, but went to the same school. It was about the early morning singing rehearsals (save us!), about going off tune, about repeating the same parts over and over again until they're okay. It was about going home singing the other part's part instead of our own, and laughing about it. It was about facebook chats. It was about making new friends. It was about fangirling over teachers. It was about giggle fits. It was about music.
When I find myself in times of trouble/ mother Mary comes to me/ Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

I bought a new sundress. = ]]]
Also. I'm getting a new tattoo soon! It'll be birds next. It's pending, so we'll see. I still love my "Let it be" one, and I think I need more pics of it.
Yesterday was one daughter's birthday and tomorrow is my other's. Today is a birthday party for my younger daughter. Busy!!!!
Here my older daughter models her first cell phone and the crazy red bull / red sock monkey devil (we're not sure which but either way it's fun) hat she got for her birthday.
And this is what most of the the snapshots of my girls look like -- one sister making silly faces in the background. Usually it messes up the photo. Here it kind of works so I thought I'd share :-)
As you can see, we are busy right now. I hope to have some times to take a look at your streams tomorrow, but I won't be on here much today.
BTW, look at that number on top! It seemed like a good idea last year to start my 365 right after my daughters' birthdays. But of course now I'm finishing it during them. Probably not the best idea.
