On an Equinox Morn

 It's past noon now (12:34) and am about to go upstairs for my morning rite...coffee, clean-up, etc.

Here's a freebie wallpaper....

Am behind, as usual when I get up late; I awoke almost 2 hours ago, but opted to read for a bit (currently reading LeGuin's The Beginning Place; am about 5/9, maybe 2/3 through it; it's okay...took a long time to start; I used to push through those slow starts when I read in the long passed past, now they stop me a little less...I guess pandemic gave me that back).

Then discovered via pInterest some blogs to peruse; one witchy one's photo reminded me of 

• the regret I have in giving up the mortar and pestle I had had...I will need to gift/reward myself with one...
• which leads to the thought that it's a new week, and I can come up with some *SMART*, small do-able goals...
• and that it's Autumnal Equinox, and I am unclear about the timing of it and my plans for today,
• and lastly that I HAVE been saving corn husks to make dollies, which is good since the leaves are still green and on the trees, for autumn leaf crafts.

Well, now it's time to go upstairs and officially greet the world.

Inspirations & Freebies: Late Spring 2019

Haven't blogged in QUITE a WHILE! But I've recently perused one of the mothers of all homey-lifestyle blogs—A Beautiful Mess*—& am inspired to apply a couple of things to my life/style & document it here:

1) Made an entry in my bullet journal: "Summer Bucket List"*

2a) Maybe? make some free printables—I'll see about doing in the next week, possibly

2b) Tell you about a source of free graphics and fonts I've downloading (6 weekly graphics & fonts) via Creative Market

3) Photography, done weekly, with some prompts**

May & June photos: reflections, textures, food, balance, perspective, routines, fam, & 2 projects: an (editorial?) diy calendar, & a mixed media gallery wall
