Flea Market Finds

      Today was a great day  1) because my friends are coming down and 2) because I went to a flea market! I absolutely love browsing through people's junk at goodwill, yard sales, and flea markets.  I found some pretty cool stuff.
~*~*~*~*~
       Hoy estaba un gran día porque 1) mis amigos estan viendo acá y 2) fui a un flea market!  A mi, me encanta echar un vistazo a las cosas de gente, especialmente a goodwill, yard sales, y flea markets. Encontré unas cosas interesántes.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Such as this cute tea pot! It is pretty old, a Rogers brand, and was once covered in a silver plating, but along the way someone tried to clean it and ended up stripping the silver off. So now it's part bronze and part silver stuff. I will be putting some work into it to make it shiny again.
 ~*~*~*~*~
Éste tetera es muy linda! Es muy viejo y necesita llavarse, pero me gusta sin hacer caso de nada.




And these awesome soup bowls.  They look very Latin American, which is perfect for me.
~*~*~*~*~
Y también los soperos. Son muy lindos y no puedo esperar para usárlos.





And last, but definitely not least, the vhs pack of the Star Wars triology! I love this because it is the original version, not on dvd... not digitally updated (such as no new scenes, characters, or songs), and it is simply a treasure.
~*~*~*~*~
Y por último, si bien no menos importante, la trilogía de Star Wars! Es en el vhs, pero a mi es tanto buenísimo!






 And so ends my day of great finds.  I am always looking for the next treasure chest to dig through.

Baby Steps, Untie My Knots!





      Have you ever felt like the picture posted above?  It is as if happiness is just around the corner but something just keeps getting in the way. It ties knots in your hair and frays all of the edges around everything that is good. Well I have been feeling that way. It's not like I have been unhappy, because I have been happy.  It is that I feel insecure in a lot of aspects of my life.  I want to be happy, truly happy. The kind of happy where you laugh so hard that you cry... and then keep on laughing.

      Ha sentido como la fotografía encima del frase?  Siente como la felicidad está muy cerca, pero algo está obstaculizando la senda a la felicidad!  Hace nudos en el pelo y desilacha los bordes del todo que es bueno.  Pues, he sentido en éste manera.  He sentido feliz, pero soy falta de algo.  Siento inseguro en unos aspectos de mi vida.  Quería estar feliz, sinceramente feliz.  El tipo de feliz en que se río tanto mucho que llore... y entonces sigue reírse!


~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


      The POINT is that I have been winding myself and the people closest to me tighter and tighter until the string just breaks. That is when the unhappiness occurs, and it occurs in strong measures.  Well, now it is time to unwind myself!! I don't mean going crazy, I mean becoming a happier and more carefree person.  I want to trust myself and others. I want to love God and trust him as well.  I want to laugh deeper, love freer, and be myself everywhere I go.

      ¡El PUNTO es que voy a cambiar la infelicidad! Voy a estar alegre, despreocupado, voy a tener más confianza en yo y las otras personas en mi vida, voy a amar Díos y tener mucho más confianza en Él. Voy a reírse, amar con libertdad, y estar yo todo el tiempo.

This is my documentation of project "Baby Steps, Untie my knots."
Esto es el documentación del proyecto "Pequeño pasos, Deshace mis nudos."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~


       and here is my motto, my mission statement, straight from one of my favorite movies of all time:
What About Bob
Y acá es mi lema, mi declaración de objetivos fundamentales, del mi película favoríta:
What About Bob




Have you ever felt this way?  What are your techniques to untying your emotional knots?

Jar Lid Magnets DIY

I love magnets and I love making them, my fridge is covered in homemade magnets. Yesterday I made some out of jar lids.  I got the idea from a small store downtown that has some handmade stuff.  It's such an easy project that I felt it would be a crime if I didn't share it!
 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Me gusta mucho los imánes y tambien me gusta hacerlos! Mi refrigerador está cubrir en los imánes.  Ayer, hice unas de tapas.  Yo vi unas en una tienda pequeña que está en el centro.  Este tienda vende mucho cosas que están hecho a mano.  El proyecto es tan facil, pienso que esté un delito si no compartiría contigos!

See the DIYafter the jump!

Ver el DIY por el conexión que sigue!

Water and Wild Horses


 I love the ocean. I love wild horses. Therefore Shackleford Island is amazing :)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Me encanta el océano. Y también me encanta los caballos libres. ¡La isla de Shackleford es increíble!



I took what seems like a hundred pictures to get a few good shots. At least I'm persistent!
 ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Les saco muchos fotos y tengo un poquito de fotos buenos.  ¡Por lo menos soy muy persistente!



These are photos of the wild horses, and although they are wild they are actually very used to human presence.  They didn't even seem to notice me and walked past without giving it a second thought.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Gracias a Díos, los caballos no me dolieron porque ellos no tienen miedo de los humanos.






Anyways, there were other things on the island that interested me too.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Estaba muchos otras cosas que me interese tambien.

Think About It.


 Would you trade this

For this?

A rise in prices is nothing compared to the extent that others are sacrificing due to its power and greed.
