Flavors of Autumn

Take myself on an Artist's Date weekly as I continue to progress through The Artist's Way which I started in September. The book is designed for a chapter a week....however, I'm a bit slow going and it seems I'm on the a chapter a month approach. Embark on a few lovely artistic projects:

• Stained glass windows for near our fireplace
• Art Journal mini-creativity sessions
• Create a collage of our time in DC & have printed on canvas

ME-ING time: Ironically you'd think I would have more 'time' for me since I have not been working a 9-5 job. Not the case at all when trying to establish a home and build a reputation in a new community. I haven't even had a chance to paint my nails in the last 6 weeks!So, that being said a few self-care intentions:

• Indulge in an evening (or two) of painting my nails
• Pamper myself to a few restorative yoga practices
• Treat myself to a warm bubble bath .... its been YEARS!!!
• Less Digital Time ~ challenge myself to not be glued to an electrical device constantly

Life At Home: Continue to build our life at home, moving away from the bare basics of unpacking to LIVING, cooking in our kitchen, morning rituals, decorating, creating habits that feel comforting 

Flavors of Autumn: Enjoy the crispness in the air, the flavors on the tongue of hot chocolate and squash, the sound of crunching leaves and the array of colors in the trees and of course:

• Pumpkin Picking
• Decorating our Pumpkins ~ Love this annual tradition
• Pass out candy on Halloween!!! ~ This will be the 1st time in about 8 years!

Movement: 'A daily practice to transform your life' ~ continue with:

• Yoga everyday
• Cincinnati Half marathon training

Food: Read Main Street Vegan and embark on a personal challenge of cooking at least one meal a week for my husband. 

What will your Autumn Flavors Be? Wishing you lovely apple cider sipping, leaves crunching under your feet and sweater wearing times!
