I saw them standing there all cuddled up enjoying each others company and I quickly snapped a picture while they we're having their intimate moment. They look like such a good pair, rugged yet elegant, sassy yet serious. If I lived in snow country, I would definitely have to adopt these boots. I would just hate to separate these two. Ya know? For some reason, this time between Thanksgiving and New Year's, I have a hard time thinking about painting. My mind is busy with all these things I "need" to do,. Whether it's planning or cooking or buying or attending or..... And despite all this, my body, not my mind, pulls me into the painting studio. I thought about this somewhat mysterious phenomenon, and the words that popped into my head was muscle memory. This is how Wikipedia defines it:
"When a movement is repeated over time, a long-term muscle memory is created for that task; eventually allowing it to be performed without conscious effort. This process decreases the need for attention and creates maximum efficiency within the motor and memory systems."
I know this doesn't exactly fit the definition, but this is what it felt like inside me. So even though my mind has been busy with all the holiday stuff, my habit of painting everyday just pulled me right into the studio. Oh how happy it makes me. The smell of the oil paints, the way the paint feels when you mix it, the zoning out...maybe that's the best part of it all. Just me and the painting and the present moment.
Wedding shoes have all sorts of color, style and design. This is the best way for the bride exactly know she is relatively easy to find, to reduce search on the net, make her task. For example, a bride may leather in the search engine column “white wedding shoes, size 7″, in this way, many of these measures will be reduced to less tired, search function more detailed specific needs.
