I just wanted to share with you guys a few point that really, really, really, really hit home with me:<br />
<br />
* Matt.6: 22, "The eye is the lamp of the body. So, if your eye is healthy, your whole body will be full of light.<br />
<br />
This verse really opened my eyes and heart to a truth that has been working itself to my heart for a long time. We have to be on constant guard about the things we allow ourselves to see; whether it be a tv show, or a music video, a book we read, social media, the list goes on! So much of this world is fighting for our attention. We have to really be in tune with our Spirit and pray for discernment.<br />
<br />
*"If I bind up my heart and mind with money and clothing and "stuff"--is there room for Christ?"<br />
<br />
This hit is out of the ballpark!!!! Is there room for Christ?? My honest prayers is that the Lord will empty me of anything that is not Him, and fill me with Him.<br />
<br />
Thank you so much for this devotional. It came at the right time! God bless you! :)<br />
<br />

A month! Where have I been?...Well, to be honest with you , I've been in the midst of finishing my last semester in college (can I get a Hoo-haa!!!; whatever that is) and in the middle of sooo many other thoughts, dreams, fears, etcetera, etcetera..you know what I'm talking aboot..that moment in the day..maybe in the middle of the night, if you're like me, just when you're about to fall asleep, when BAM!!! insecurities hit, fears set in and all of a sudden is like you never knew who God was.<br />
<br />
It's like this people, either you trust God, or you don't...and I have to be honest wit ya'..I haven't been trusting Him that well...it's dumb, ridiculous and pointless..but, alas, He knows we're dust...and He pours His grace on us, when we ask Him to. Lord, here I am, asking..pour your grace on me. I love you Lord.<br />
<br />
I'm thinking about changing the name of this blog...to what...stay tuned.<br />
<br />

That's exactly how I've been feeling these last few weeks. Times are changing and change is happening. Now, I was inclined to say that change is inevitable. But, the truth is that if we don't make a conscious effort, we might just stay exactly were we are forever, never moving a foot forward, never reaching, never growing, just existing. While change is scary, I believe it's worth it.<br />
<br />
There's a great quote that says, <i>"Un mar en calma, nunca hizo experto a un marinero."</i> Life is like the sea; we're in constant movement, like the waves, sometimes crashing, sometimes gliding, but we're still in the ocean, we're still swimming, soaking up the sun, going with the flow...living. And were there is life, there is hope.<br />
<br />
So, here's praying and hoping that these times, though changing, exciting and terrifying all the time same time, will lead me exactly where God wants me to be. Because He knows better, and that's the only truth there is.<br />
<br />
<br />
Mucho love,<br />
<br />

This weekend I started drawing again. It's been a while since I've drawn, but it felt as good as it always has. Now, I'm no Degas, clearly, but drawing has a way of relaxing me when Pinterest just isn't doing it for me; cue gasp. I believe God gave me this just because He knew, He knew..isn't it awesome how He just knows exactly what we need? </div>

Hello there,</div>
<div>
<br />
Long time no write. I've been busy, you see. I start school again on Tuesday, almost 6 months after taking a break, or as my mom likes to call it, a sabbatical. I'm throwing my net out, I'm trusting the Lord; He'll come through. I'm taking two regular classes, plus three graduate courses, plus a test. Pero, como me dijo una amiga, "...hay que tomar los cursor y hay que laborar." Lets do this God.<br />
<br />
I've also been busy sewing a bunch! yay! :) It's been really good! Just yesterday I was able to start and finish a lot of the projects I was excited to work on. I made two pillowcases, one drawstring pouch, a wallet, and a kid skirt. Today I went and bought a lot of new fabric :) So, I'm all set for my next friday, my official sewing day. I'm not taking the second part of my sewing course, because I'll be too busy with school and it's important to me to do well this semester. I'll be, God willing, getting certified as a teacher, and the test I have to take in march is super important for me to pass in order to get certified. Pray for me.<br />
<br />
If you're wondering why I wrote hashtags on the title, I'll explain. Why are people hating so much on hashtags. I like it. It's like an afterthought...like, when you say something out loud and in your mind you add something else because you just thought of it.. I don't know..or maybe! a title for what you wrote..#conondrum I don't rightly know..but I support it! :)<br />
<br />
As always, here's a little collage of some happenin's...<br />

Mucho love,<br />

</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I wonder, even now, if I'll even miss you. We had our ups and downs, but I must be fair, you <i>did</i> teach me a lot, actually; about God, about myself. Things I'd never notice if they hadn't been slightly painful. I don't regret a single day or lesson learned. "El crecer duele" me han dicho, and I thoroughly believe it. I thank God for you, 2013, but look forward to this new year with more hope than I dare voice. I even look forward to who I'll be, come next year, and what this new year will teach me, painful or otherwise. Because God has it all figured out, don't forget now. </div>

I have no pictures to share, a half finished purse, decisions to make, and a rumbling belly. Oh, but above else I have God in my heart. That pretty much outweighs everything else. I feel Him even now holding on to me, and I'm thankful. Have you ever met Him? Do you know what He's like? You should get to know Him, He'll change your heart.<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
This is my last week with the sewing class I've been taking this semester. On friday is our "graduation day" where we present our projects and get our certificates. Also, we'll get dressed up for the day and eat great food. It's bittersweet. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
We're in December...December...December...the year's almost over and it seems like it just started. If you haven't started yet, I suggest you do; start living the life you've always dreamed yourself having, the life you've worked for, the life that will make you feel like you're living and not just existing. The life God has in store for you, the one He wrote, the one that's beating in your heart. He put it there, He knows, just ask and He'll give it to you. He'll also give you the courage to live it.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Go for it, </div>

And it was totes (insert awkward face emoticon) fun to make! I found this tutorial on this woooonderful <a href="http://crazylittleprojects.com/" target="_blank">blogggg</a>!!!! It's worth shouting for, I promise!!! The cool thing about this lady is that she offers a wonderful workshop for <a href="http://crazylittleprojects.com/2013/05/learn-to-sew-the-kids-edition.html" target="_blank">kids and teens</a>, and has another series for<a href="http://crazylittleprojects.com/2012/11/learn-to-sew-with-crazy-little-projects.html" target="_blank"> adults</a>..I of course used the kids' workshop, because that's how much of a beginner I am..and a wuss!!! But behold, the wonderful world of learning to sew!! My own reversible tote! :) </div>

Now, I know what you're thinking..seriously? she couldn't have taken a better picture? Well, let me tell you something people, I could've, but it's late and I was too excited to show it off!!! But, I will take better pictures of it, I promise!</div>

Honestly, this is an easy, fun, wonderful project to take on if you're a beginner sewer, or a veteran that wants to learn something new or reinforce their skills!

I've recently been thinking what this blog will be about. I still want to post my sewing experiments, those are always currently underway, but I also want to use this blog as something more. As of right now, I'm fixing it up a bit, trying to make it my own. I've linked my <a href="http://www.pinterest.com/jaunecanari/boards/" target="_blank">Pinterest</a> page with one of the awesome icons I told you about. The Twitter one I'm still on the fence about. I've never really been a big Twitter fan, because I just can't seem to narrow my thoughts down to 140 characters or less..it's frustrating..I really think commas are necessary...Still, I will be giving it some thought, and should I decided, I'll link it using the icon. I'm sure you're mad with despair wondering which decision I'll make. Fear not, cyber friends, I'll make a decision soon ;)<br />
<br />
Mucho love,<br />

I know I do. Today I happened upon this lovely <a href="http://www.thedarlingblog.com/">blog</a>, where I got these lovely social media <a href="http://www.thedarlingblog.com/2012/10/scalloped-border-social-media-icons-in.html#comment-form" target="_blank">icons </a>. I wanted to make sure I gave credit where credit's due, so this is my appreciation post :) Be sure to download these icons for your own blog! They give a nice pizzazz (do people still use that expression?) to your blog!<br />

It's been a long week for me, so I wasn't nearly as excited as I usually am. I actually left class earlier, at 11..we were supposed to stay there until 2 p.m., but, alas, my heart wasn't in it. I bought some pumpkin soup for my mom and I and I've been interneting (what?) since then; you know, the usual, Facebook, Pinterest, Pinterest, Pinterest, favorite blogs, etcetera ,etcetera..<div><br></div><div>I hope to get inspired today to get some work in and finish a few pieces.

So, I googled it, and came up with this trusty <a href="http://www.mathatube.com/measurement-reading-a-ruler-starderd-unite.html" target="_blank">image</a>..if you have no problems figuring out how much 3/8" is, I humbly curtsey!

<br />
So, the DIM upcycled skirt is done!!! I'm so happy, proud, excited and pumped!!! Someone, tranquilize me!!! STAT. This whole "learning to sew" stage of my life has been pretty cool I must confess. There have been a couple of ups and downs, but the good things in life usually involve some sort of roller coaster, right?<br />
<br />
As I'm writing this, I'm laying on my bed wondering what else God has in store for me. I question Him daily..isn't that sad? I actually doubt He'll make good on His promises..I mean, He is God after all..He can't contradict Himself..but I realize I have a lot of room to grow..but I must be willing to.<br />
<br />
Anyways, here's the finished product!! :) I'll try to do a little photoshoot with the skirt!! But I was so excited to post this, that I couldn't wait till tomorrow!!! Oh! I got the idea to make this skirt from this lovely <a href="http://www.merricksart.com/2012/06/easiest-pencil-skirt-youll-ever-make.html" target="_blank">tutorial</a>. I'm hoping to actually make a skirt like the one she makes, but I got inspired to do my own little version of it! I added an elastic at the waist too! :) You'll get the full gist of it when I upload a few pics of me wearing it!<br />

Ay!!! I almost forgot!! :) I don't know about you, but I love Barbies. When I was younger I was all about them!! I used to love changing their clothes and making a mess of their hair, and marrying them to the Kens! Ah! to be a kid! Anywho, I found this wonderful, splendid <a href="http://www.craftinessisnotoptional.com/2010/09/easy-barbie-skirt-tutorial.html" target="_blank">tutorial</a> through, you guessed it, Pinterest. I made some Barbie skirt y'all! And I am full on loving them! You have got to check out her blog! It's soooo awesome!!!<br />

<div>

<div>
I'm writing this on my way to the mountains, where my family has a house that overlooks the beach and thousands of mountains, it seems. Why am i telling you this? Because the car is hitting 45 and I might mess up my grammar. I don't want to worry you. Not that you would be worried, just ashamed. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Anyways, I've feeling adventerous and I've been Pinteresting like crazy. I found this tutorial on making an <a href="http://mycalicoskies.blogspot.de/2012/05/52-week-challenge-16-tie-dye-infinity.html" target="_blank">infinity scarf</a>. I had an old dress I didn't want anymore and decided to give it a shot. However, I didn't have enough fabric to do it, so I settled for making a <a href="http://mermag.blogspot.com/2010/09/easy-breezy.html" target="_blank">cowl scarf</a> using a tutorial I found on Pinterest! It actually turned out pretty good! It was a DIM (do it myself)/ecofriendly/experiment :) </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
I'll be posting a skirt DIM experiment that's currently underway. It's an upcycle of two old knit fabric shirts. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Have a lovely weekend!</div>
