Changes in the New Year... and Terry unloaded my new tool box. He wanted me to buy it from Sears but I didn't want to wait as long as it would have taken. I found this a Lowe's and I love it. I was able to retire my wire basket holder from the container store and my big four drawer plastic holder from Target. EVERYTHING fit in here.

We had thick Plexi-glass cut to fit the top. I have part of it long and part of it square. I use the smaller piece to mix my paints on and it is washable. The box also has electrical outlets so I have set it up with my ipod charger and player on it... and actually painted yesterday. Just a start in preparation for the big painting. I have not painted in a week and I have to get back into the swing of the palette knife before I begin the big piece.

I had two interesting emails yesterday, one from a gallery in Arizona asking to exhibit my work and another inquiry from a gallery in Puerto Rico. Two in one day is unusual but I believe I can get some things together for both of them... and a trip to both is in order.

When you were young did you labor over those New Years Resolutions? I remember doing them all the way through my twenties. Then in my forties I did the cards, which is what Terry and I will do together this year, listing our needs and wants for the new year... and then believing and trusting for it to happen.

Wikipedia lists the top goals of most Americans to be the following:

Improve Health; lose weight, exercise more, eat better, drink less and quit smoking.
Improve Finances; get out of debt, save money.
Improve Career; get a better job.
Improve Education; improve grades, get a better education, learn something new.
Improve Self; become more organized, reduce stress, be less grumpy, manage time be more independent.
Take a trip
Volunteer to help others.

Success rate shows 52% of those of us that do resolutions to be totally confident that we will be successful. Only 12% will actually do it. Men actually did better than women!

Lisa Blackwell with ABC News, talks about the beginning of a new year means a fresh start for all of us to start again with resolutions in place. This especially affects those without jobs. Many Americans are resolved to be more grateful for what they do have.

Journal this year if you can. Write down those needs and wants and record your journey as you grow in 2011 to be the best person you can be.

“Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am.” - John 14:1-3

A Bit of Wonder Contemporary Horse Oil Daily Painting Art by Laurie Justus Pace 24 x 30 x 2 inches of thick buttery oils! Contact me to purchase: Laurie "This is the day that the Lord has made; Let us rejoice and be glad in it". Psalm 118:24 It was a day of celebration yesterday as Lauren Gracen was born. Stacey began her labor around nine in the morning and was ready to push by 12:15, but they held her off while getting things set up. Took four good contractions with multiple pushes and the baby was there! All grandparents accounted for to count the toes and fingers! My admiration is for my daughter and her bravery and calmness despite the tension and newness of what she faced. I was honored to be there as the baby was delivered seeing my granddaughter push out into the light and take her first breathe... and then cry... and that she did. Terry was able to participate and he and Larry helped with pushing and getting Stacey upright for the process and then Terry was hon...

Arrival...Refrigerator?

© Laurie Pace Graphics One Design 2024 Arrival Oil on Canvas SOLD by Laurie Pace Proverbs 16:3 "Commit to the Lord whtever you do, and he will establish your plans." Worrisome times laced with prayers. The world seems like a scary place lately. Praying for everyone affected by the last two hurricanes. My adventures today were the result of a dead refrigerator. I have loved my Kitchen Aid refrigerator very much. The first one in the 'French Kitchen' look died at 13 months. Hubby wanted the same refrigerator. Well this one made it four years and a few months. I cannot believe appliances are not made to last longer...but wait, is that because they make more money if we have to replace it in 4-5 years? You replace your mattress at least every 7 years... and your washer dryer, you might get 7 years out of those... The stoves seem to make it closer to 10 years. We are Lowe's customers, and Robert ...

The Marsh... of our lives? Walking with God.

© Laurie Pace Graphics One Design 2024 The Marsh 6 x 12 inches Oil on Canvas SOLD by Laurie Pace I did two of these paintings about three years ago. They both sold immediately to a Florida Collector. Simple and elegant for a horse painting. Ephesians 5:1-2 "Therefore be imitators of God, as beloved children and walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma." One of the biggest challenges in walking with God is trusting Him and not trying to out think Him or to do everything your way. It never works. The Apostle Paul wrote of his own struggles in Romans 7 . Romans 7: 22-23 “ So I find this law at work: Although I want to do good, evil is right there with me. For in my inner being I delight in God’s law; but I see another law at work in me, waging war against the law of my mind and making me a prisoner of the ...
