Only Good Things Happen to Me!

That's my newest affirmation. I've maintained an arms-length interest in affirmations over the years, oscillating between belief and flat-out disbelief. Lately I've come firmly back to the belief side of the spectrum. I think it all has to do with intention. So, how nice is this affirmation!?! Only good things happen to me.  I'm actively testing this one!!!
I've actually been away for a few days - only three really, but it feels like I've had a real break away.  I wanted to show how good life can be - and for me that means art supplies and stationery to the max!  I'm putting these photos on Flickr with notes to tell you exactly what I splurged on.
Bookbinding supplies (I'm working on my first editioned Artist's Book), printing supplies (for that book) and books books books!
And!!! we all went to see Rocky Horror Show!!! iOTA, who plays Frankinfurter is excellent! As are they all!  A must see, if you can.  Thanks to Caitlin and Paul who gave me my ticket for Christmas!
And I managed to get envelopes the EXACT silver as that in my Gocco printed cards.  So I've been able to finally package up my first bulk order and I'll deliver it tomorrow.  Now that's good too!  This is a bad photo.  These cards are IMPOSSIBLE to photograph!


It was a good three days away.  It's true.  Only good things happen to me.  I strongly suggest you try that affirmation yourself!

First edition artist book? Do tell, soon I hope. And there is no such thing as too many art supplies.

I forgot all about affirmations. I think I'll give this one a try.

I remember reading some research about "lucky" people, and the researchers concluded that lucky people made their own luck by believing that they would be lucky and taking up opportunities and approaching life on the assumption that they would succeed - so they did. I reckon that's how affirmations work as well: they affect how you approach life. If you believe good things will happen to you, they will! So I wish you lots of good things, and I think I'll start thinking that for myself, too... Sara x

how about "only good thoughts get thought by me"...
only truly, truly good thoughts go through my thinking process...
