"Why aren't you in awe before me? Yes, me, who made the shorelines to contain the ocean waters." Jeremiah 5:22

Short post this morning. Stacey is due over any moment. She is staying with us during her days because we live so close to the hospital where she will deliver. We both have Doc appts this morning as well, so time is slim.

FAT VIRUS?? ON the news this morning that said people are heavy due to a FAT VIRUS? I think I have heard it all. Next we will hear that they are putting addicting powers in the Blue Bell Ice Cream we all love, or the Godiva Chocolate. To me it is black and white. I didn't eat sweets until after I was age 50. I didn't gain weight until I ate sweets. It is not rocket science at all.

Yesterday Morgan was off from work and drove over and took me to church. There was pot luck after church which resembled Thanksgiving all over again, INCLUDING the desserts. I truly enjoyed the fellowship and getting back in touch with families I have known at the church over the years. This old German congregation is dwindling with many of the smaller churches trying to maintain younger families to shore up their existence, but it is not working. Morgan was so surprised by the number present in church. Maybe it will plant a seed.

God surrounds you and me today. I am sure He has His moments of wondering about us and our future as well. His work is well known, it is around you in everything, every place and every person. He protects you constantly and keeps our world in working order to His plan.

Joy and Abundance,

Laurie

Mixed Media Collage Horse Paintings by Texas Artist Laurie Justus Pace

  © G.O.D. Laurie Justus Pace      Graphics One Design 2013 Horse Collage Fall 2013  12 x 18 inches Mixed Media on Canvas.  This was an intentional paint to imitate one of the 100 ponies I did in 2012. That poor little 8 x 10 pony was loved by a company to do very large prints and it was not here for me to even use to scan... so I created something with the same heart, a kindred spirit. The underlays are pages from a western book and then torn papers of different varieties were added along with stains of paint and purposeful areas of paint.  This would not be a painting I would do today, but the goal was to capture the spirit of the first painting.

'Exhausted' 24 x 24  Oil on Canvas Contact me to purchase by check or paypal. Laurie     © Laurie Justus Pace     Graphics One Design 2010 My Website   Thinking ahead to the Thanksgiving celebration next week, I remembered back to those previous dinners that I cooked, served, ate quickly, and cleaned up.  This is how I felt.  It is probably strange...even for me but I had the best fun sketching it out and painting it. We lost another dear family member this week. She has celebrated her 'continuation' day and is now with her mom and dad and her other cousins.  She leaves behind a family that will always celebrate her gentleness.  My aunt was special to all of us. She loved each of us dearly for who we were and was always ready with a hug or a 'good job'.    My memories are of breakfast pastries smeared with butter on top. It was not like they were not sweet enough as they were, but at her small kitch...

Sleeping Cowboy . Ernest Hemingway . Sunday, a day of rest . Western Painting by Texas Artist Laurie Pace

My life has the tendency to fall apart when I'm awake, you know?” Ernest Hemingway  I really enjoyed painting this scene. It was restful to me as the artist  and loved by our friends.  Sunday is the day of rest. I smiled when I found this in archives and thought it perfect for this day.  If you live in Texas you know that we still have 'rules' about not selling liquor before noon.  If you live in Texas and are in your late thirties and up, you might even remember Blue Laws.   Stores were simply NOT open...
