I Don't Want To or I Can't Do It!

Jack LaLanne Website

How many times have you heard that little negative voice in your head ?  It happened to me this morning but I powered through it. 

My resistance started last week when I received an email from Elaine LaLanne's assistant.  You remember Jack LaLanne, the famous health guru?  I had made arrangements for Elaine LaLanne, Jack's wife, to do a presentation at a club I belong to.  It was a wonderful experience going to their home to pick up gifts she had for the attendees, hearing her speak (AMAZING!) and then last week, I was asked to write a quote that would appear on the new Jack LaLanne website (me?  really?)  I was really honored but with that came pressure to say just the right thing.  You know what I did?  Instead of sitting here paralyzed, I just jumped in and did it!  The more we think about the things we don't want to do, the more time we waste and who knows where taking that little step will lead.  Like they say, one bite at a time, one baby step, one word at a time.  Make whatever you're resisting happen today!

Shoes

My stairs are drying, so now it's on to my next projects and that means I need special supplies...

Paint Your Stairs

I've just finished putting the second (and hopefully last) coat of paint on my stairs. It was two years ago that I fell down them and broke my ankle. I had to set aside my fears a couple of times as I was leaning over the edge. Going to let them dry and see if I want to add an antiquing wash. Pictures to follow. With paint in my hair, I wish you a creative day!
