What it feels like to fulfill a friends' dream?!!!???!!!!

Last week I was in Boston...and in doing so...I grabbed a seat at the Blue Man Group in the Charles Playhouse.  I was so excited cause I was sitting in an area that could potentially get me a spin art.  

2 years prior I was in Las Vegas getting the spin art for the grand-opening of the Monte Carlo.  2 years ago, I considered my collection complete.  

For my friend Joe, though, he had never gotten one.  They are hard to come by now!  You cannot purchase them anymore and you have to sit in the general area to be given one and make a true connection with the blue man. ;)  

I had a mission.  GET THE SPIN ART FOR JOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Folks, I'm here to tell you...after 2 years of waiting - Joe finally got his spin art delivered just in time for his late birthday celebration!  Congrats Joe!!!

Here are the images of me getting it at the theater!  
I met a blue man fan there also!!!! :) 

The spin art - has made it home to Joe!!!! YAY!!!!

Wednesday Wandering : "cleaning out your car and meeting friends!"

This week's "Wednesday Wandering" takes me outside for a few on this wonderfully chilly rainy day.  Honestly - when it is raining I stay indoors - but oddly when I TRAVEL....I go outdoors.  I don't know why.  I haven't figured that out yet. :)  In St Louis I was on a mission to create...and even CREATE in the rain.  But here at home - I find I'm a true homebody. 

Except for today!!!!

Today, I have started cleaning out my car. 

Now to you, maybe this isn't a huge deal - but for me having done all this traveling and more traveling and less and LESS cleaning....MY CAR WAS A MESS. 

The outside had been freshly washed, the belt tensioner tightened....but the trash and props and more were just overly cluttering my life AHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!

So, phase 1 - I have completely taken out the trash, threw stuff in the recycle and next - I'll attempt to vacuum it later or tomorrow.  Then, probably wipe it down with armor all.  I always find that cleaning your car and home is just like cleaning out your mind & heart.  You have to ADDRESS what is going on inside so that your outside and inside collide.  There is a harmony when things are cleaned up.  Not perfect, just CLEANED UP.  :)

Don't ignore your mess.
Because then it turns into a disaster.
 You have the power right now, right here to deal with your mess and get moving into a less cluttered direction.  Sometimes I can't even think unless I de-clutter!  I need to BREATHE. I need to think.  I need to assess my mental and emotional health.

Phase ONE - done!!!! The car is reflecting a less-cluttered moment.
Phase TWO - finally leaving this house to meet friends. 

Wednesday Wandering: 
-where did you go today that was NOT your house.
-did you see the sky?
-did you see a friend?
