I'm so excited about the CLEAN SLATE , the BLANK CANVAS, I've been praying for it for years! Yes, I've had to super fight hard to get it! But, I am here, this is now and designing, this my one life, my way is something this southern transplant joys to do.  The image above is my rendering of what our  Temporary Tiny place for two could be. The TTP is not this yet, but it is what I dream it to be.  The image above is not yet designed to scale, as we've yet to occupy the space and or take any measurements of the supposed three hundred and sixty one square feet. The TTP was rented unseen! And to my surprise is basically one room. The TTP was rented unseen and to my great surprise the potty is righty off the kitchen, but thankfully, there is a pocket door. It's my dream and my hope to anchor this space with a large dividing wall better known as a bookshelf from Ikea. The dividing wall will act as a wall between the sitting zone and the sleeping zone.  After the zones...

These Days: I'm learning: How to Design a Screen Printed T-Shirt in Adobe Illustrator ! And it's so much more than this! As the language is different.

Then, back in 2008, I started blogging. Well, here we are.  The first thing I need to get a handle on is all of the basic positions a design can be placed on a shirt!

As you can see from the archived photo above, the publishing date was February 27 2020. Yes, the good Lord had me writing all about leading from living rooms months prior to CCT (Crazy Covid Times). You can also read, most of this very same somewhat scandalous work, over at the Murfreesboro Voice.   The book: Living Loving Leading A Lydia Lifestyle From Your Living Room speaks much on strategies, but it lacks in specific defined solutions.

I'm an on demand PRODUCTIVE, PRAYING creative PLANTED, PURPOSED and POSITIONED by the mighty hand of God to use WORDS and images to move us all closer to the one and only Jesus.  According to Dr Ortlund, "Gentle and Lowly in heart in no way means mushy and frothy!"  So, because for years, I may have been too quiet and played too small, with my supernatural gifts, I've decided every Tuesday ought to be Take Back Tuesday for those of us who need to extend our arms to the one and only Jesus and actively open our hearts and hands to TAKE BACK everything the enemy tried to destroy.  The good lord has dealt wondrously with me and I rejoice in my inheritance of the SPIRIT and SHAMLESS is what I be. A few weeks back I asked the Lord for something that would rival T Mobile Tuesday and last Monday, HE gave me Take Back Tuesday!
