I am not moving to Houston. All three, various income possibilities, doors closed. I still have half my belongings in storage. Long story on this one. I am sure I will use the example in a future course. Since my home is half-full, I am taking the opportunity to create all the studio spaces that I need. I am setting up my recording space backdrop for my videos for YouTube, Courses for Skool and maybe Skillshare. Still have a lot of work to do. Will get the rest of my things from storage next weekend. Clarity of mind to set this up and plan for upcoming recording space. In process. I am so Grateful, day 7 of liquid fast. Can’t wait to eat in 10 minutes. This is working. The main goal is, to stop releasing unintentional curse words. I work with felons just leaving prison. Curse words are a language but it doesn’t belong in my heart or mouth. I haven’t been able to stop when I have any type of emotional response. It is implanted in my deepest parts since 13 years old. I decided to pray and fast and keep the flow of gratefulness going. The benefits are exceeding what I am asking for. Getting some breakthrough at work as well. My groups are truly shifting. I am more animated as well in order to keep their attention. About 32 men of various ages and various levels of crime. Various lengths of incarceration. I am staying awake driving. My heart is opening for more joy. I am less tired, more alert. The backdrop is my intuitive art processing grief for several, multiple people and multiple times. Different mediums with different expressions. Just some small persona work that is very meaningful to me. No planning. Some of the message is disturbing as in childhood trauma that just flowed out of nowhere. Others are grief from loosing two of my four children. My planning for art and grief courses are developing nicely. I hope some of you will begin sharing where you are at with your artwork and or process of grief work. Blessings Renee Oh,👏 I will be working overtime for a while. Yes, it will take more of my time. But, I will be able to pay for my living expenses better.

Where Reflection Finds Me
Below are pictures of some plants in my garden. There were 6 garden areas that I loved so much. So very much. The longest time of home security to at I have ever had is my home in Destin Florida. I was a REALTOR and got a good deal and a commission on the purchase of “our” home. We spent 9 years in this home. I had a studio full of art supplies of all kinds. My focus was on clay. Kiln, potters wheel, extruder, clay recycling area, hand building area also. I also worked in glass and silver clay with a kiln for this. I was a manager/medical assistant/coder and biller at a Pain Management Surgery Center for 7 years. I was getting my masters degree part time in Counseling Psychology for 4 years. All of This, even though my inner anxious pain was severe, I ignored that. I won’t go into those details here. Everything came to an abrupt end when my husband strangled me twice in an attack defending his affair. I couldn’t afford to keep my home and pay him out 50%. Not only did I have to move, but this made a good time for my EMDR session my counselor was waiting for. Since I was a counseling student wanting healing but also to learn how to counsel from her, it was hard to drop in for the deep session. The results of that was so traumatic, my mental health was challenged and I had to take a break from school. Much happened, but I returned to complete school after six months. Facing homelessness became a reality every month. This was in 2012. The apartment home I live in currently is the first home that I feel so good and safe in completely by myself and my two dogs. So when instability came knocking on my door again, I felt like, I knew it, I finally love my home and hear it goes again. So, I looked for another apartment for the past two months. The doors are closed. Yesterday the third door closed. The Lord let me know, my current home is the safest place for me. He is my provider. The doors is open to stay where I am. But also, The reflection time over the Resurrection Weekend found me in the state of realizing how rebellious that I truly am inside. Independent and rebellious. He showed me this from his training me at work and through this search for a new apartment in Houston.

Where Reflection Finds Me
Creativity Really Lightens The Heart
Creating this small living-room layout & feeling good about the space for my studio, uplifting my heart. Tomorrow, I am taking down my art table and recording studio preparing to move. I don’t have a secured place yet. But believing the Lord is one with my spirit and works through me as a guiding light force. He is springing up a refreshing each morning. I get heavy each evening until I get home to my fur-babies but worship uplifts along the way. I joined a $10.00 a month creativity channel for inspiration while in transition as my art materials are in boxes. Inspiration, Holy Spirit on This Good Friday anticipating the dark pain of Christ’s betrayal and death to The most powerful Resurrection of all time. That one that Is Power Imparted within Us. Believing in the salvation of our soul. But that inner life where the Holy Spirit lives, our temple, our hearts linked to our minds, thoughts, emotions and behaviors makes all things possible with God. Transformation in our expression of the rhythm of The Holy Spirit showing up in our beliefs and speech, the tones and care we offer to others as an extension of God’s love. Growing more confident in our ability to receive His Love and hear His Voice. Resurrection then becomes our lifeline through this world knowing we are safe from eternal damnation. We are born again as we walk out our own salvation in faith right now, everyday. Blessings

My Creative Endeavors
Hi Everyone, @Pixie Elpis @Alicia Voyer @Jaye Brunner @Kathryn Dowell Checking in with you. My goal is shifting my countenance and energy levels to build our community with helpful support and practical information as well as creating art together. I am packing and filling a Uhaul trailer slowly but surely. I extended the days through Wednesday since I am doing this with me-myself & I. It is the first time not having anyone to help. I got a neighbor to load the couch and recliner. Just sharing my process. I feel a significant amount of grief with persistence and hope. I never thought I would be alone with my adult children being distant and unhelpful. I am moving to Houston closer to my job because I really don’t want to die falling asleep driving and possibly hurting someone else. However, I am continuing to learn and grow with Patti’s community, Christians over 50. I purchased her Success Roadmap to get clarity on creating this community. I know most of you know that I started this community but experienced road block in my own creativity. That is why we are off to a slow start. Therefore I am creating content as I work through this resistance and the feeling of heavy grief. Creating Intuitive Art brings this about so I shifted the group from Creating Art As Prayer to Graceful Grief Intuitive Art. I have accepted my place in life as it is in life right now. No striving, just following my heart and following the next steps as they show themselves to me. This is a company that is creating awesome and safe housing, For Me, this time around. It is a different feeling to live among the precious homeless, and retired folks on the poverty line. But homeless for me has been knocking on my front door. The Lord led me to apply for housing as I can’t pay my current rent anymore and I didn’t qualify for 3 times the rent to get a different apartment. any-longer. They are all raising rent from $70.00 to $135.00 a month. I moved around avoiding this but, it is caught up to me right now.
I can see❣️
Couldn’t see well for over a year and half❣️ Praise God for my job and tax refund 👏
