...is slack at social media. So here's me, let me reintroduce myself, seeing as it's been a gazillion days since my last post. Heres 10 fun facts you may or may not know about me:

1. This month marks 8 years of This Bird 😳🐦 ...and I gave myself 6 months to see if it would work 🙌.
2. I grew up on a sheep and grain farm west of Goondiwindi. That means I can drive large machinery, catch lambs and I feel more at home in the dirt and dust and hate dressing up 🤪.
3. Boots or barefoot, and not much else in between when it comes to my footwear choices (much to my father's disappointment).
4. I won the Saturday Disney 'Letter of the Week' back in the 90's (IYKYK) and it was the best day of my life 😄.
5. I'm dreaming of travelling to Scotland at the moment.
6. I've never broken a bone.
7. Yes, I ate all my crusts as a kid and my hair is naturally curly.
8. I strongly dislike frogs 🤢.
9. I wanted to be a pilot in the Airforce when I left school but was too short... I may still get my private licence one day 🤷‍♀️.
10. I find social media and marketing myself harrrd....

'This Little Bird Learns - Your Path Is Your Own'

Overview:
This Little Bird discovers a majestic mountain while out exploring, with lots of different paths all the way to the top. With the help of other animals, she learns how they choose their path to follow and that she can create her own path to the top as well.

“If the path before you is clear, you’re probably on someone else’s.” - Joseph Campbell

...and Day 1 of painting the loo block at North Star Public School is done ✔️. A lovely little school in North West NSW, over the border from Goondiwindi, it's been a lovely start to the week with storms, rain, big skies and some paint splashed around.

...spent the morning at the Pomona State School Fete helping to coordinate this little mural project! What a great day spent with students, family, grandparents and friends all working together to paint this once dreary shed! I used the students drawings to design up a bright fun artwork, they painted it (with minor direction) and then I'll come back in a little while and add some outlines to tie it all together.

It was a lovely reminder that the fun happens when we paint outside the lines. That art can be expressive and messy and joyful and it's not about being 'good at it' or 'doing it the right way' but about enjoying the process.

This project was organised by the wonderful P&C team and the generosity of George Real Estate who supplied the paint.

...had the privilege of helping, just a bit, a local family through a tough week, with these flowers being part of saying goodbye to a loved one. When I started This Bird, I didn't realise how special the connections I'd make in this town would be and how fulfilled I would be being able to help in any small way during their bleakest days. Funerals and celebrations of life are such an honour to be involved in and I'm so grateful to be part of that process for my beautiful community. Hug your loved ones, treasure the moments together x 💖

... enlisted the services of 'grumpy old man removalists' (his words, not mine) AKA Dad to help move this beauty titled "The Humm of Intuition" from located at over to for the up coming on 21 and 22nd September in Cooran. Did I mention how lucky I am to have an amazingly supportive family who jump (albeit with raised eyebrows occasionally 🤪) to help me.

12/09/2024

...and this biggie, titled 'The Humm of Intuition', is headed over to for Tall Trees Art Exhibition in a couple weeks. Stay tuned for tomorrow's transport via trailer as she needs special care and put into your calendar for Sat 21 - Sun 22 September where they open up the whole main street as exhibition space - a unique experience!

.... and beautiful spring time blooms PLUS a fresh mulberry pie made and dropped off by my amazing mum Claude. This weather has the tree in abundance now and I'm okay about helping Mum practice her pastry making skills.... and will never stop (it's been a lifelong 😉. Purple stained fingers and climbing the mulberry tree as a kid and then watching Mum roll out my grandmother's pastry recipe and baking pies all afternoon... what spring time memories do you savour?

...and beautiful sympathy flowers, delivering love, friendship and care.

...is doing an appreciation post... for myself. Because I reckon we all need to champion ourselves, be our own cheer squad and forget about being humble and modest every now and then. This week marks 7 years of This Bird. I'm so bloody proud of myself for reaching this milestone, but mostly, proud of all the little moments that have led here. When life is tough, when things aren't great, when moments don't turn out the way we want... it's those times especially we need to champion ourselves and remember how far we've come. I remember those early days of business - of wanting to quit every day for that first 18 months, feeling isolated, treading water... and since, the continual struggles of running a small business, combined with doing it in a creative industry and making art. It's not all painting pretty pictures and playing with flowers, it's a continual challenge, it's consistency, day after day, it's just doing the work, even on days when I don't feel like it. I've never worked harder...and I love it and it fills my cup - to overflowing most days. So every day this year I have got present, found extra gratitude and championed something I am proud of, for myself - as small as getting out of bed and making it through the day (cos some days, that is all that I can muster and that's okay) or as grand as completing a huge mural or making someone smile. So, my question to you, what are you proud of for yourself? Little, big, ginormous - it doesn't matter, it's all relative. Tell me, spruke it, champion yourself, share it with everyone... or just to yourself. Kindness goes along way, when shared and when given to yourself. Cheers to another year, thank you, and wishing love, health and daily presence to all of you that support me, from near or afar, and anyone in between who may need reminding how amazing they are x ...now, tell me about your amazingness...
