Happiest Day of the Year? « Blogging On The Ragged Edge

Happiest Day of the Year?

Is it happening for you right now? According to one university researcher in Cardiff, June 18th is definitely the happiest day of the year.

I can only speak for myself but, yes, I am having an extremely happy time. Our house is spotless and up for sale. My wonderful DuH and I are on the verge of the adventure of a lifetime. My online income from writing is increasing. My kids are playing, the sun is shining, it’s Friday… what more could a woman want?

I hope your day is as good or even better!

Zentangle
What is a Zentangle? In a word, a doodle. A structured, contained doodle. The term 'Zentangle' was coined by Rick Roberts and Maria Thomas when, one day, Maria described her experience, as she created her art, as "feeling timeless, free and engendering a sense of deep well-being". Rick recognised that she was in a meditative state and so […]
Create Something Cool - 30 Day Challenge
You don't have to be an artist, a sculptor, a writer, a chef or a tailor to take up this challenge. You don't have to be clever with your hands or a wizz-kid on a sewing machine. You don't have to be an intellectual or an inventor. You don't have to be a crafter, a scrapbooker, a baker or a candle maker. You don't have to have any ta […]
Hairy Men are Gorgeous!
Hairy Men are Gorgeous! Humans are covered with hair, even the most fair-haired, pixie-like person has body hair unless they are suffering from a medical condition. Androgenic hair (hair that appears post-puberty) is due to the male hormones present in both men and women. Men have more of these hormones (yes, really) so are generally hairier. So one could as […]
Zentangle Patterns
How do you find Zentangle® inspiration? Well, one way is to scour the internet and look at what other artists are doing. I do that all the time. However, there are Zentangles all around you. Where? Let me show you. Images on this page are copyright and not to be used without permission. However, please feel free to share on Pinterest or Facebook. The Zentang […]
Zentangles: Examples, Ideas and Materials
Since my first Zentangle page has become fairly popular despite being a bit unwieldy, it occurred to me that many visitors were possibly looking for something more than just the basics. So I set about creating several slightly complex pieces, hopefully to inspire you to do the same. Zentangles don't have to be restricted to 3.5 x 3.5 inch squares; they […]
Zentangle Workshop
Welcome to my zendoodle workshop. What's a zendoodle? Well, it is a drawing created by filling pre-defined spaces with repeated patterns. Some people call them Zentangle® or Zentangle-inspired art, but this workshop is not connected to the Zentangle method taught by Rick and Maria of Zentangle.com. I am not a certified Zentangle teacher (CZT) so this wo […]
Signs Of The Zodiac: Capricorn
This lens will be focusing on Capricorns. I am a Capricorn myself so naturally I want to focus on all the great attributes of Capricorns and maybe some of their (very few) negative traits as well. I hope you enjoy reading about my sign and I hope you will visit my other pages too. I was born on December 28th and so was my little sister 11 years after me. It […]
The Doodle
Whatever you call it, in essence it's 'doodling with intent'. As opposed to doodling while on the telephone. Doodling with intent is making patterns on paper in order to have an end result; a piece of artwork. It is also used to facilitate an 'active meditation'. In other words, it is the kind of activity that allows you to disengage […]
Traditional Welsh Food
Often when people think of Wales, they are reminded of mountains and Welsh Male Voice Choirs and railway stations with unpronounceable names. Yep, I can say Llanfairpwllgwyngyllgogerychwyrndrobwllllantysiliogogogoch. However, it often takes a little while before visitors realise that Wales has a deep-rooted culinary tradition all of its own. Many dishes are […]
Love Your Grey Hair | Gray is the New Blonde
How we resist our natural gray locks. We moan and groan about the silver hairs which peep through the glossy brunette (or red or blond or whatever is our natural hair color) as a sign of encroaching maturity. A reminder that we all, if we're lucky, will eventually succumb to old age. Most of us panic and reach for the dye. We go for streaks and tints - […]

Pearls
I believe the nicest and sweetest days are not those on which anything very splendid or wonderful or exciting happens, but just those that bring simple little pleasures, following one another softly, like pearls off a string. ~ Lucy Maud Montgomery
From Dragons to Sea Serpents
There is a pleasure in the pathless woods, There is a rapture on the lonely shore, There is society, where none intrudes, By the deep sea, and music in its roar: I love not man the less, but Nature more. ~ Lord Byron
Here be Dragons
It does not do to leave a live dragon out of your calculations, if you live near him. ~ JRR Tolkien.
