Fuzzy Friday

Darling Junipers...  this has been one long week.
Have you ever had one of those days where you feel a little fuzzy?
That was me today...  
I believe my tweet went...  
"Starting my day without coffee... we'll see how this goes.. *facepalm*"

It was ok but I think one thing that really made it kinda bearable was thinking about today's list.  

I AM HAPPIEST WHEN...

 ***

When I am working on a delicious new knitting pattern..  extra points when I actually get to keep the knit at the end of the process!  (I very rarely knit for myself)

This is my most recent project and I have made myself one (featured in the blog title picture) and am now making one for my mum.  I love Jane's work!

***

When I am drinking a delicious cup of coffee.  Nothing more delightful then some delicious coffee and my journal. 
This illustration reminds me of when I was first introduced to the art of coffee tasting.


***

When I am with the ones I love!  Hands down, this is the best.

When I am writing letters to my friends... whether they be far away or close to home.

 I am a PROUD member of the Letter Writers Alliance!
***

When I am exploring new music, playing my ukulele, and singing at the top of my lungs.

The list definitely goes on but those are some highlights...
This tired Grace needs to put herself to bed.

I encourage you to take a few moments today and think about what makes you happy!  What brings you joy?  Pause and be thankful.

GRACETUBE 19

Dear Little Junipers:
I'm not sure if you know this about me but...
Sometimes I like to make little videos with my ukulele...





I love playing the ukulele...  It's little and I can play chords on my ukulele that I can't play on my guitar!
(note: the ukulele in this video is actually Maya Kaval's....  she is my room mate... she is awesome... AND she has a sweet little blog!  CHECK IT OUT)

This Tuesday night I will be playing at the open mic night at my Starbucks. 
It's really fun and sometimes a little terrifying to sit in front of all those people drinking their coffee and tea and wondering what on earth I am going to do with that funny little ukulele.

Tomorrow I will announce the name of my jar!  There is still time to head over and vote.  i have an excellent surprise in store for the person who names my jar!

I also have some excellent and exciting new things happening in September.  I promise I will tell you about them soon...  until then...

p.s. YES I know I spelled should WRONG... unfortunately in my rush to deliver my most excellent video I missed an edit... ah well ... you can't win them all.
