"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Every Year

Grateful for this rainbow quote that came across my screen today. 
And I'm so grateful for all that I have....it's more than enough.

Every year I marvel at the Enkianthus blossoms along side of my condo. They're subtle and oh so sweet.

It's a important political year for Maine....and the country.


Slow doodle drawing on patio this afternoon.

  1. Yes, voting is more important than ever right now. I like how your sticker made it into your slow drawing.

    1. Thanks Cherie. I thought about it well into my doodling...but found a spot for it. It was one of those silly spontaneous ideas that made me smile.

  3. Love the order in which you posted your photos. I saw the I VOTED sticker and thought, wow, Maine has more artful stickers than we do in Massachusetts … and then I kept scrolling and saw that YOU had enhanced YOUR one sticker artfully with slow doodling!!! PERFECT!

    1. Ha ha....yes! I thought the first photo was a little teaser. I'm appreciating your nudge of slow drawing! It filling me with joy...and a sense of calm.

  4. I think your fancier version of the voted sticker should be adopted! Ohio's sticker has a red outline of the state in a blue circle with OHIO VOTED in the middle. Since Ohio is not a symmetrically shaped state the sticker looks off balanced and like a little kid designed it - LOL!! I guess that is not the important part. I now work less than a half mile from the BOE so I can drop off my mail-in ballot easily and not have to be concerned with it being delivered late.

    1. I agree Patty about my fancy sticker! I like the sounds of your Ohio sticker....especially that it looks like a kid designed it. We're all a little off balance right now!
