We attended the
World Balloon Convention on Sunday! I thought I was a real geek for even wanting to go but once you saw the creations you couldn't help but be in awe.
The talent and creativity was amazing. I've attached my favorite 100% balloon biker! It has been a busy few weeks. I mentioned before that I am taking a 7 month leadership course and have learned so much.
However, I am down to my last class & graduation next month. I can't believe how fast it has gone. I wish everyone could go through this experience. All I can say is that it was such a gift and I am so grateful to have received the scholarship for the Power of Self class!
I have also been working on my writing and reflections—which hit a bit of a road block. I finally understand what the term "writer's block" means. But, there is
always inspiration if you look hard enough. I was able to have lunch with a bright woman—Jennifer Strickland. She pushed me through a great discussion and opened me back up. Jennifer's story is really inspiring & I have read her book twice. Check her out
here.
What else? Cooking has been quite the trend in my house lately. The art of cooking in my situation is very unique but also a great challenge. Fortunately, my husband loves to cook so it's never a chore. But, recently, my hubby found a great little trend called
Urban Acres.
It works like this: every two weeks you get a fresh batch of local and organic produce, fruits, meats—basically whatever is in season. Then they provide recipes to introduce meals with the goodies. My favorite part is you can volunteer your time in the market then receive your food free. How great is that? Stay tuned.
Love,
Jen
