AtoZ Theme Reveal

Happy Wednesday Blogger’s…Today I’m going to announce my, “Theme Reveal” for the April Challenge AtoZ … I absolutely love, love, love this challenge and it is great for a number of reasons.

It helps me to stay focused on what is important in my life. My motivation for this is, I love to write. It started when I was young girl and we had to read, “The Diary of Anne Frank”. That made such an impact on me and I realized the importance of writing.

So actually my theme is writing. I’m going to share with you everything, well not actually everything I have written. I write a lot … I have my commonplace book, my planner, my junk journals, my 10 year journal, my morning pages journal, my traveler’s journal !!! I could go on and on, but I think you get it.

I realized that Anne Frank didn’t realize she was going to have her diary as required reading in school’s when she was creating her diary. I am so thankful for reading that book and being able to read and write. They both are truly a gift.

Here are just a few pics of my different journal’s I will share with you…So happy to be back with this community. It truly has made a difference in my life on so many levels !!!

Last year when I broke my right arm, not being able to do the physical act of writing was the worst thing ever. I’m so thankful to be able to write again with my right hand.

I’m hoping to get some new follower’s, and I hope you enjoy all of my craziness and love of journaling, writing and creating. Blessings to all and it’s going to be a great

Elizabeth & Elan Creations…

My mom was a nurse, my sister was a nurse. I told the daughter I didn’t think she should be a nurse, b/c I grew up with nursing and it’s not an easy job. So then she became a nurse…

Like most children they have a mind of their own and they do what they want. I have to say the Medical World is better b/c she’s in it. She’s a great nurse, her grandmother would be proud …

Like all my kids, she’s not just a nurse. She’s a mom just like her me with 3 beautiful daughter’s of her own !!!

Good for her !!! Motherhood & Nursing

Throw in a little musical theatre just for fun 😉 …

Elan Creations is my husband’s the name my husband gave his artwork…

We are a family full of amazing artist’s!!! A very unique and talented group of people that really make this world a better place…

AtoZChallenge2024/Theme Reveal

I’ve been sitting around pretty much all of this month trying to figure out my Theme for 2024 AtoZ and I have finally come up with what I think will work for me. I am going to be out probably most of April in VA as we are having a new grand baby and I get to spend time w/my adorb Ms. Ruby. Hopefully Missy will hold out for a few weeks so we can get some much needed shopping in for her and little Ms. Ruby. I do love to shop, especially for babies and new mommies ….

The weather I’m sure will be perfect, not too hot or cold….Just right and what else is good I’ll be leaving Chicago b/c I’m pretty sure if you know anything about March in Chicago it is the worst of times. Cold, rainy, windy, cloudy pretty much sums it up.

Back to the theme reveal…This year theme reveal is going to be Stories from Scarlet…They are usually very unique, sometimes long and a lot of time very funny. I’m going to have to go back and look at my writing’s and past blog’s to jog the old memory. I guarantee you will definitely be entertained. I hope you’ll join me down Scarlett’s Memory Lane…Blessings dear blogger’s …

AtoZ Challenge Theme Reveal…

I’m not sure how many years I have done this challenge, but this is where I started out on my blog and I’ve always enjoyed AtoZ. My theme for 2023 is Queen Elizabeth and The Royals.

I have always loved Queen Elizabeth plus The Royal’s always have some kind of drama going on. I really want to learn about them too, i.e. their history. What better way to learn about HRH and the Royals, in concert with one of your other passion’s which is writing for me, and of course blogging.

When I was a young married, it all started by me staying awake and watching the young Diana Spencer marry her Prince and becoming a Princess…We all know how that turned out which wasn’t good. But that was just the beginning for me.

Here I am again digging into the Royal’s which I believe is going to be so much fun, all while learning about them. The husband bought me, “The Queen” for Christmas so that’s probably where I’m going to get a lot of my info. I’ll be reading the book that will help me out with the daily prompts. I was saving this book for vaca in a couple of weeks, but it’s a pretty long book so I’ll still have plenty of reading to do while I’m on the road 🙂 … I have already started reading and she really had an amazing life. I’m going to do my best and hope you’ll enjoy learning about the Queenie right along with me.

I’m looking forward to this challenge and I hope I make some new blogging friends. Let’s light this party !!!! Everyone have the best weekend ever !!! Blessings fellow bloggers.

Masterpiece Monday/AtoZ Theme Reveal

A new challenge and this is one of my fav’s of all time, AtoZ Theme Reveal I’m pretty sure I haven’t done this one before. I have chose the Artistst’s Artwork. Having been pretty much home for the last year, thank you Covid19, not…The husband has been able to do a lot of paintings. I’m pretty sure I have A to Z in the paintings. Will be looking forward to this challenge. Here is the latest one he is now working on…

Old Port/Portland, ME

We lived in Portland, ME for a short time and hopefully we will be able to get back their. It is a beautiful place and we both want to live their again…I know the weather and winter’s are quite the challenge but we are born and raised Chicagoan’s so we know the drill. I have most of his painting’s named so it should probably work out well. I’ve kept the names rather simple. I might add that all of his work is for sale (a bit of self promotion) which I hope is allowed. I also have a widget on the right of his artwork, “Elan Creations” which will bring you to Amazon Handmade.

I hope you will enjoy the artwork. He is a very talented artist. Never took a lesson at all, The Artist Wife <3 .
