July 24

Yesterday I scheduled my posts for the next three weeks, and I came to realize that without using FB memories, I don’t have easy access to my images from 2014 and 2020. I’ve scheduled the posts to release at 9am CT, so on those days I have cell coverage, I plan to add the images if they exist.

It’s my hope to do lots of reading and watercolor journaling over the next three weeks. Jim and I will also have a week with our three children and their significant others.

2015 – Full page notes from Pastor Emily Scott’s message at the 2015 ELCA National Youth Gathering

One of the things that Emily said that has stuck with me all these years is this: “The only thing I’ve figured out is just to refuse to look away.”

Note: If the images are being cropped in your email, you can click on the “July 24” above to see them more completely. If you’re moved to listen to Emily’s 14-minute message, it is found at the 2:24:00 mark in this video.

Happy 28th Anniversary to my sister-in-law and brother-in-law, Jane and Greg!


“Seven Years of Wonder” is a daily look back at my creative journaling posts since 2014. I began this journey on Feb. 11, 2021, and hope to continue through Feb. 10, 2022. What am I learning about my art and faith journey thus far? What has remained constant? Where have I been changed? How is this impacting present and future art-making?

A deep bow of gratitude to you for keeping me company on this journey.
