It’s Tuesday evening, and I’m exhausted!
Last weekend was very hectic and took a lot of my energy (I come to that later)
and on top of that, I decided to clean the kitchen cabinets today. I’m not very
fund of housekeeping tasks, and I certainly don’t like cleaning but – like it or
not – the kitchen has to be cleaned every once in a while… I must say: my hard
work shows. Everything is shiny and I feel very satisfied! Satisfied and tired.
I didn’t want to skip this post though, ’cause I have some things to show you -
but I won’t make it a long post. Well, not too long anyway. Promise.

I missed last week’s ‘Haiku my heart’ because I was in Zeeland -
but I will make it up to you with three* haiku’s.
All of them inspired by the item I bought last Friday…
(*plus one bonus haiku just for today!)
You will also find art journal pages in this post.
See – there’s something for everyone! Enjoy!

Did you miss me last Friday?
I was here:

After all the hard work last weeks, I needed a little break.
My ‘men’ and I stayed with my parents.
We visited an art exhibition and ofcourse I had to say hello
to my beloved waves…

I woke up very early this morning.
The sun peeped through the curtains and the room was full of light.
I was just dozing off again when, in the corner of my eye, I saw something
strange hovering in the air … it looked like a smoke-curl, but it was not.
The shape of the curl changed while it swirled through the room and the
colours seemed to flow from red to orange to yellow… It was a happy curl!
Suddenly I was wide awake!
I blinked with my eyes – yep, still there…
I wondered what this could be…
and then it hit me – it was a vibe!
Someone had sent me a vibe!
Now I was really curious!
What kind of vibe would it be?
In any event a fun, positive vibe for its color was so bright!
I jumped out of bed, took a leap and then I caught him.
My oh my… it was a cleaning vibe! YAY!
I don’t know who send it to me, but THANK YOU!!!
It was just the one I needed!
I used it well during the day, and it shrank to just an eeny meeny little vibe.
I layed it beside the computer so it could rest. I have the feeling it will be
strong enough tonight to take off again, and I’ll send it to someone else
who needs it. (Jenneke perhaps? Keep your eyes open tomorrow girl!)

Do you expect photo’s of a clean house now?
I didn’t take one… but I have some artwork from last weekend to show you!

Don’t you just LOVE my title?
I’ll explain in a minute…
Weird things happened this week. Strange vibes were in the air.
I didn’t really feel it, but when I visited a few blogs after finishing
some (art)work I tumbled from one surprise into another!

Hi there friends! How was your weekend? Mine was cold, stormy and rainy
(Outside that is. Inside the house I made it comfortable and put all kinds of
stuff on the big table… paint, glue, brushes – you get the idea. The result is
at the end of this post.) It feels like Summer is coming to an end while I didn’t
even see the sun… we experienced only a few sunny days – just to remind me
how it feels to wear a skirt – and then temperatures dropped again.
With August on the calendar, and light getting shorter in the evenings, it sure
feels like fall now! I decided to turn the ‘bad’ into ‘good’ and made plans for the
upcoming season then!
