That Perfect Shot......

Every now and again you get one of those shots that make your heart sing. Those perfect shots that offer the subject just the way you want it to. My Hanna came by last night to share birthday cupcakes with Nonni. She looked so cute I just had to take a few shots. OMG..when I brought this one up...well I knew it was gonna be my favorite shots of her. Seriously I can't take much credit here..cause she is beautiful and photographs with ease. I would have to say..it is all her beauty that made it pop.
If I have not said it lately..I love it when you come by and see me!!
Hugs, Sarah

Thank you Mr. Crowe...

I know it is a bit silly but I just couldn't help it..cause this made my day yesterday! I follow Russell Crowe on Twitter. I love his work both acting and music. Let's face it the man is a hunk. His CD Songbook with Alan Doyle and his beautiful wife Danielle Spencer is one of my favorites. So yesterday afternoon I tweeted about it..and ya know what..he retweeted it. So there my little post sat at the top of his page for most of the day yesterday. Giggle..sorry..it was kinda fun to see it there. I gave me some fun pop on Twitter..new folks to get to know and now following me. Thank you Mr. Crowe..ya made my day!
Hugs all, Sarah

More Musings and Electricity.....and muffins:)


Ya know what happens when your Muse gangs up with the Warrior Woman in you?? Well lots of intense pushing and dragging of you onto the correct path. There is encouragement and then prodding..then keeping awake at night until you get it. Which is a bit annoying really..but effective.

But as I posted here.. a few days ago..the lightening is still crackling around me! So here is the thing..if you are going to actually listen to your Muse..and I would suggest this option..you have to be ready for that warrior woman in you to step up too. Cause sometimes to make the seemingly impossible happen..ya have to be wicked brave and act.


Some would say that at 51 I should be thinking about slowing down..I am too old to be pursuing new and exciting things...uhmmmmm...I guess they don't know me real well huh? The warrior woman in me was (and still is) demanding that I be brave and Let Fly. So I did...I stepped out there and trusted that what these two were demanding of me was possible. Ya know what....it is...within 12 hours of posting my intent..things started happening..amazing wonderful things. I will be revealing all of that soon. One little hint.. I might just maybe be in the recording studio sometime soon singing with my daughter Hanna...and with the help of an amazing bloggy friend...I will fulfill a long time wish and dream of mine. She knows who she is(huge hugs)...and I will reveal all soon.
So I am asking you to day to share something with me... your hearts desire..your fondest wish for you. What have you put on the shelf? You know the ones, that you fondly pick up now and again and  wonder..what if I had just......? Yes those..would you share them with me today? I would love to hear!!


Of course there is coffee..wonderful Kona with lots of flavors to add! Muffins today cause the weather is wicked cold and warm muffins warm the soul!
Thank you for popping by all..I so love when you do!
Namaste, Sarah
