Expiring Mind's photostream

I am creative type with interest in everything! I was an army brat who has lived in lots of places as a child, and continued that pattern until about 7 years ago. I am excited about getting on with a great life that's been stuck on hold for too long until recently.

I am fairly newly single--waiting for the ink to dry, so to speak... I have three great kids, two boys--8 and 13--still at home. They are all energetic, critical thinkers who are much too smart for their own (and my) good! I enjoy being with them, working on projects and just hanging. Hoping with them...

I love lots of different music, don't read as much for pleasure as I used to. I am beginning to read more, pick up the acoustic guitar again, and start crossing things off the "someday list." For example, going to the shooting range, buy a house, go back to grad school or law school... I like to work with polymer clay, and paint. I just replaced my lost (stolen) camera (thanks, Nashville!) and want to begin seriously taking some photos. My current near-obsession is mosaics. I started about a year ago, and when I can fit in time for it, I really enjoy learning more and seeing the incredible work online. The goal for the summer was an outdoor table. But now I have wedi board and can work inside, so watch out for that...

Visit me on my new blog at: expiringmind.blogspot.com/ I have updated and changed a bit. Let me know what you think...

You gain strength, courage and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face. You are able to say to yourself, 'I have lived through this horror. I can take the next thing that comes along.' You must do the thing you think you cannot do.
--Eleanor Roosevelt
