June BJP finally


Finally finished this, and the rest! Long hours of beading bliss, what was I thinking to have waited soooo long?

For June I chose some nice bright pink fabric with the swirls and stars. The swirls signified to me that my tight little crazy circle was starting to open up a bit. At least I felt it was. And the stars were almost dream like. I also chose to put very few beads on this piece for that reason.

I was loosening up a bit in my outlook on things, I didn't feel like I had to try so hard to have fun with friends or to just wake up in the morning to face another day of wondering. Just a lighter atmosphere here all around. The weather was awful....that seemed to be about it. I was actually starting to feel happy again. I could see that things would get better financially (though I didn't know how with my husband still not getting called into work), but I felt better about it. We made plans for the summer. The kids got out of school (later than usual) and the babysitting kids went on their summer break. I found out that there are free days at the museums in Chicago, and started making plans to go. I found more free things to do as a family and we made those plans and went. We had fun! No more sitting around the house all day everyday.

Like my fabric felt to me, it was free flowing and almost dream like type of feel to this month.

I'll begin my comments with this bright change in attitude, lifting of depression, starting to feel happy again piece!!! Good for you that you cou have hope again, plus find a way to make the most of the situation. That open "S" shape is just the symbol for that!!! Yay!
