Surprise! Surprise! The Universe seems to be saying to me today....
From Merriam Webster on-line:
Serendipity: the faculty or phenomenom of finding valuable or agreeable things not sought for.
Synchronicity: the coincidental occurrence of events....that seem related but are not explained by conventional mechanisms of causality.
From my favorite boss/art director extraordinaire: Who just returned from Christmas vacation, bearing gifts: a box of Godiva chocolates, cunningly concealing a gift certificate to one of my favorite places !
With which , I promptly purchased this:
(Remember yesterday, when I said if I couldn't find my old copy by bedtime, I'd go buy a new one today? Only afterwards, I realized my next paycheck wouldn't be till Friday...but somehow it manifested, anyway!)
and this:
which I didn't even know existed till today!)
From Superhero (by way of my topography) , the mondo beyondo idea.
And last, but certainly not the least, this photo of a serene grandgirlie that arrived in today's e-mail from my niece. If a picture is worth a thousand words, this one sums up the way I feel about the small wonders of the day!
wowzers!!! what an awesome day! yeah, the universe definitely seems to be tellin' you something. :-)

I have alot of friends that are firm believers in the concept of manifesting. I am pretty convinced, as well. So glad you got the artists way and you can start 'the program'.

I popped in to say hi and to wish you well with your AW adventure. I've enjoy wondering around your blog and checking out your pictures.
I do a fair amount of altered art and paper works. So it was fun to see we have some interests in common.
Looking forward to continuing on the AW journey with you and the other talented people in our cluster!
