I am *not* loving this moleskine. It would be great for sketches or even writing, but it is not made for art journaling. However, since the cover has already been altered to read "Art Journal" I'll continue working in it. I'll definitely be going back to a composition notebook for my 3rd volume, though. I may lean more towards doodling/Zentangles, or something like that to finish out this book, though. The pages just won't hold up to all the stress I put on them. ;)
29 April 2006
for the four short years i had my angel murph, it didn't matter how horrible my life was, how stressed i was, how broke, how depressed, how lost...in murph i always found peace.
it's a hard thing to confess that i went through a very, very dark time in my life where i came close to giving up...and i truly, honestly, and without a doubt know that i would not be on this earth today if not for my murph. he saw me through the worst four years of my life...four years that changed me, four years that taught me and robbed me at the same time.
some might say he was just a dog. others might say that i simply projected my need for salvation onto this animal who happened into my life at the right time. but, me, i know otherwise...i know - i have to believe - that murph was sent here, somehow, to see me through it all, to be sure i stayed on this earth just a while longer...even if it meant being here without him.

190903: We spent a long weekend in Lübeck. It was great, even if it was a bit rainy. We always have a kettle with us, so we can make coffee and tea anytime. No, I did not drink the coffee from the glass of water. I needed it to drain the coffee filter there.

190903: Wir haben ein verlängertes Wochenende in Lübeck verbracht. Es war super, auch wenn es ein bisschen regnerisch war. Wir haben immer einen Wasserkocher dabei, so dass wir uns jederzeit Kaffee und Tee machen können. Nein, ich habe den Kaffee nicht aus dem Wasserglas getrunken. Das brauchte ich nur, um den Kaffeefilter dort abtropfen zu lassen.

p.14 Still sick, I stay in at the hotel all day while the others explore. I feel well enough the next day to see the Himalayas from a viewpoint.
p.15 Visiting a temple/monastery and making our way back down to the train station, where a begging child triggers me and I overreact. Ashamed of myself. (I like the way this page turned out—it may be my favorite.)
I got a little behind with sharing my journal spreads. Here is a batch that I just finished photographing. These are from my Composition Notebook Journal using acrylic paints and other collaged items.

There is a story behind every page.
For more about this page visit:
200410, left page: This mega egg cup was made for me by the enchanting children of a dear friend. 😄
Right page: When I was riding my bike, a crow ran across the crosswalk with its head held high and very properly straight. Of course I braked and let the crow cross the road safely.

200410, linke Seite: Diesen Mega-Eierbecher haben die zauberhaften Kinder einer lieben Freundin für mich gebastelt. 😄
Rechte Seite: Als ich mit dem Rad unterwegs war, lief eine Krähe erhobenen Hauptes und sehr ordnungsgemäß schnurgerade über den Zebrastreifen. Selbstverständlich bremste ich und ließ die Krähe sicher über die Straße gehen.
