Phases

My life is a series of mini phases.

Take my style.  Previously, my jewelry and make-up always matched what I wore.  If I had a green shirt on, my necklace, earrings, and eye shadow would be green.  Then one day two youth ministers (of all people) made fun of my plethra of green.  I didn't change because of them, but it did bring it my attention.  Currently my jewelry and make-up match, but do not match my outfit.  Like today- I have a green sweater on with purple eye shadow and excessories. 

I also go through food mini phases.  Everyday last week, I ate dried cranberries after lunch.  Before last week, it was jello.  Last semester I ate tuna for lunch for two weeks straight then one day just stopped.  I had a fruit roll-up phase, yogurt phase, BBQ chip phase.  Cereal of course has always been a constant, but even within my cereal choices phases occur.  Recently, I had a Honey Bunches of Oats phase, a Shredded Mini Wheates phase, an Oatmeal phase.

My crafting goes through phases.  At times I make jewelry, other times I sew, and still other times I scrapbook, but rarely will I do them all or any two in a single day or week or sometimes month. 

I go through phases of isolation and exposure. Currently I can't seem to get enough of people.


I have taken note or ushered in big phases, but have only recently started looking for my mini phases as they eb and flow.  These mini phases aren't life changing, but they bring variety to my life.
