Hello everyone, all week long I thought of you and what you should know about me and what is it I want to share with you. Knowing that there are many blogs out there in Blogland, I not wanting this to be one of the same pretty style blogs. This is what I want to share: I am a 50 year old woman who needs to rediscover what God wants me to have. To share with others the way God can move in my life and He can most certainly do so in yours.

| Me ~ Spring of 2015 |
Before blogs, magazines was how I day dreamed of a Pretty Home (Artistic Living). Homes that the in-crowd of high society have (cause of money), then I discovered blogs and saw ordinary people have those same homes (with less money). Five years ago I started this rediscover journey; went from employed to not; lead to living in my sisters home and becoming a student. Knowing that soon I would be having a place of my own, I began taking stock of what I have and making list of what I wanted (realistically), dreaming of what it would look like. Part of that taking stock was my skills as a Housekeeper (Domestic Artist) - dishes and floors don't count...noticed dusting didn't make the list lol. I felt that if I wanted an Artistic Living home then my Domestic Artist skills needs to be honed so I am sharing that process with you while in my sister's home.

Today I was wanting to share with you The Reseeding of the Front Yard but this is how far I have gotten with ~

| Lawn |
It has been very hot so I have only been able to do an hour or so in the morning or in the evening, guess that's why I am not a gardener, more like an indoor container planter. The few websites that I have found reports that it is not seeding season, but it will help with those pesky weeds. The goal here is to minimize the weeds and hopefully gain more grass coverage is what my sister wants. I have been aerating the soil and pulling some weeds. I can say that the roses are doing just fine, could it be that they like my Container Planter thumb.
