Well, all I have left is Me so I guess this class is for me.
ReplyDeleteI am on several FB boards and depressed so I will be anonymous #1.
I just got some 'me' stamps.
I scrapbook, I PL and sometimes mix it up and I Smash
I am at a crossroads so what better way to find the right path than this? Perfect timing!
ReplyDeleteHi there! I came across your this course and challenge last night. I am new to art journaling. But it was your message that drove me here. I am excited about joining in!
ReplyDeleteYou are so inspiring. . .I feel like I was led to you. Don't ask me how I randomly landed on your website; I don't know! I feel you are a friend, I've never met. We share the same religion, we have shared similar trials, we love our families more than anything. I love the 52 weeks of soul searching concept. You are gifted with putting your thoughts to words, pictures and art. You have two beautiful children with lovely partners. I'm in the same boat. My son found his true love on his mission!! I pray this beautiful couple makes it to the alter! Please share more updates about your children and the progress of their romances. My name is Janalee, I've never blogged before. With my naivety, I'm signing off as "Anonymous." Blessings to you and yours.
DeleteHi Janalee!! I would LOVE to get in touch with you!! Do you have an email?? or FB?? I love that your son found his love on his mission!!! Sooo happy you found me!!!!!
DeleteTis has been wonderful for me . I am loving it. Thanks so much for doing it.
ReplyDeleteThank you for posting and sharing and giving us a chance to do this, too! I'm super excited to start.
ReplyDeleteI have a question, though--what happened to the links for Weeks 6,7,and 8?
I am on it...not sure!! thanks for pointing this out:)
ReplyDeleteI just found you through Kristal Norton (WOOO HOOO!) and I'm in! Routine - the VERY words I am getting from other places. I'll get up that 30 (ohmygodwhathaveicommittedto) minutes early and be there. Starting now. Bless you and thanks for the challenge.
ReplyDeleteI too found you though Kristal Norton. I also am up to the challenge - I think. I certainly want to make changes in my way of living so that I can have more time in my life for art and creativity. I think I am older than some of you. Instead of dealing with the constraints of work, children, etc. I am retired, children grown, but my beloved husband was diagnosed 2 years ago with Alzheimers. I am his 24/7 caregiver and am adamant that he will stay at home with me. That is no assistant living or nursing home. I know that I need a routine that includes my art time. Right now my routine is mostly caring for my husband and trying to keep myself together. Tired and stressed. Tomorrow will be different. Thank you for this class.
ReplyDeleteAnonymous, I am so sorry for what you're going through. I'm happy to hear that you are a creative and artistic person, as that will surely provide you with some much needed escape from time to time. Being the primary care taker for a loved one with Alzheimer's is one of the most difficult and trying experiences a person can ever go through. No one can really understand it unless they've been through it. I personally have not, but as a hospice nurse I have had the opportunity to support several people who have. I encourage you, if you haven't already, to get hospice on board if your husband qualifies (and by the way, that doesn't mean he's dying soon). They can help in so many ways, and you need all the help and support you can find. Also let your friends and family know you need help and then let them help. And don't feel guilty about it. An Alzheimer's support group is also a good idea, even if it has to be on line. You can give your husband better care if you are also being cared for and supported. Sorry, I know this isn't directly about creativity (which I am totally committed to), but I hope it gives you some ideas to explore so you have the opportunity to indulge in pursuits that make you happy as you give your beloved husband this beautiful gift of your love and care. I will be praying for you.
DeleteThank you for your kind words of support. My name is Barbara and I am looking forward to getting to know you through this class.
DeleteI am on! Thanks for this amazing place!
ReplyDeleteAwww.. BEcca...you are soo sweet . Thanks for being here:)
ReplyDeleteLeslie, I love the idea of getting others involved in a creative commitment project by making it a free e-course. What a wonderful way to spread the love!
ReplyDeleteI had actually started this and wound up getting so busy with life that I had to stop. I look forward to starting it again in the new year!
ReplyDeleteI JUST FOUND THIS.... IM GONNA START THIS NOW.... SO EXCITED! THANKS!
ReplyDeleteI'm totally IN this will be a great way to document ME
ReplyDeleteI love art journaling and found this blog looking for some inspiration. I really related to your blog about why you're doing this 52 weeks. I'm so glad that your free week program is still posted on here for us to do even though you started it a long time ago. Eager to start the weeks....thanks!
ReplyDeleteIt is now March of 2015. I saw this site and your words instantly spoke to me. I will be following your 52 weeks and wanted u to know u r still touching lives. Thank u!
ReplyDeleteOh Connie that is AWESOME!
DeleteMy name is Georgina. I am a bit late joining in but I found this on pinterest and in my current mindset with illness and other issues this is just what my psychologist has asked me to try. I was floundering badly however. Thank you for the helping hand you have given to me and all these people before me. You are an amazing person. May i contact you if there are any questions please?
ReplyDeleteI love this! I'm just starting my first week and I can't wait to see the results that this will yield.
ReplyDeleteI have one question for the other people doing this... Because I am notorious for beginning something and then stopping when it gets difficult or even when I have an opportunity to stop... How should I approach a change to my new morning routine when I'm out of town?
I would love to do this year long journey!!! How can I get access to you guide???
ReplyDeleteI know I am coming in on this really late. But I stumbled onto this just today. I would really like to join, even though I am way behind you all. What a great way to find my footing again and get in touch with my creativity. I have been trying to find a way to fill my life with new things.
ReplyDeleteHello! I just came across this today and am eager to start the venture of myself. I know this was posted a couple years ago now but is there anyways the links to week 1, 2 & 3 could be repaired? I am unable to click on them, but I have access to the others.
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Wow I'm having a rough personal time right now and I hardly ever use Pinterest - but this morning it came up and your link was at the top - I feel like it is a gift from above. Thank you so much for sharing!!! ❤️❤️😍
ReplyDeleteThis was the first thing I saw on my Pinterest this morning, it feels like this is something I need. How do you get started?

ReplyDeleteIs it even possible to still get all the information for this challenge as it looks like a lot of the links are no longer there or active?
ReplyDeleteUmm...I also just found this and am not sure if the Facebook part is still open or if I should join that part too. I'm on week two and it's a bit daunting. Not in a bad way, just in a whoa, I feel unbalanced and out at sea. That's why I was wondering if I should join the facebook group. (Though sitting here I kind of want to get my own people...idk yet.) Thank you for what you have made here, either way. My blog isn't in real time just so you know but I list your website when I write about it.
ReplyDeleteAs a retiree, I have been at a loss in direction for my life. Thank you for doing this as I think it will help me get out of my rut!
ReplyDeleteI am in! YOur classrs are so wonderful, i can't wait to get started!
ReplyDeleteI would love to join.
ReplyDeleteI would love to try this class.
ReplyDeleteHowdy! I'm 52 years young and still only love that girl in the mirror part-time. I am hoping this challenge will help, and thank you for doing this!! I think we we truly lived ourselves the other stuff in life would either fall away or be manageable.
ReplyDeleteI am looking for something to help me turn my life around, and I'm going to give this a shot. The past year and a half have been the hardest I've ever experienced and I want to get better, I hope I stick to this, and thanks for creating such a supportive program!
ReplyDeleteI'd love to join!! Is there a current group going?
ReplyDeleteHi Caroline. There is not....but go ahead and jump in!!! It is sooo worth it!
DeleteThis course may be exactly what I need. Thanks for putting it together and keeping it available.
ReplyDeleteI found you on Pinterest. I hadn't read very far when I decided you were a Kindred Spirit! I have also decided I'm in for the next year...along with a close friend ( my mom!) who will be joining me on the journey.I read a quote not too long ago: "When you shine your light, you give others permission to do the same." Thank you for being a transparent vessel...you shine bright, girl!!
ReplyDeleteI am very interested in this but I'm not sure...can this be followed on an individual basis or a group? Was wondering because it was posted years ago...no t sure how this works.
ReplyDeleteI love This. We are doing a 52 Works of wellness Too. Great minds Think alike. Do you colaberate?
ReplyDeleteI a m wanting to start the E course.
ReplyDeleteHowdo I start the E course?
ReplyDeleteI have been struggling for about 6 years now with various health problems and in that time God has been my rock. I was just asking today for him to help me stay on track as i was beginning to feel a little lost and as usually he gave me a pointer. To you im just beginning your course today and its just what i need thank you for your creativity and may God bless you.
ReplyDeleteMy Mum forwarded this to me as I am currently going through a Divorce and not feeling my best. I left my husband, home in the UK and friends to move back to my birth place so I am feeling very lost and lonely. I look forward to this and hope it will shine a light for me too. Thank you.
