The Healing Phoenix
My sweet LilBit, all-American dog, true companion, and furry inspiration. As the saying goes, “Please let me be the person my dog thinks I am”!
Returning….
You will notice, dear Reader, that it has been a while since my last post. As sometimes happens, “life” got in the way. However, now I have returned, back and better than ever!
It’s time to guide The Healing Phoenix in the direction I have always wanted, which is not only to include my writings and observations, but also to have learning content for you!
This is an exciting direction for me, and I cannot wait to expand and move toward my dream and goals for this website and my readers.
I still plan on having monthly themes and doing Project 365, which will involve some catching up! The pictures have been taken - they just need to be shared!
To celebrate returns and new beginnings, I have posted above for you a picture of my “angel with a fur coat,” LilBit. If anything is inspiring, it’s a wonderful pet with unconditional love!

One fine day

Project 365 - Day 32
For the month of February, I am going to turn my camera lens on those things of love, in honor of St. Valentine’s Day. Anything that catches my eye that is valentine-ish, love-ish, or that just, well, catches my eye. Enjoy!
First up, some cool things found at World Market. This place is just a treasure trove of neato stuff. This is a personal-sized heart-shaped pie mold, and a book describing how to make mini-pies. Yay!
Project 365 - Days 28-31
A lil bit of love, and my son’s new baby sister! I call her a little peanut, also known as Kaylynn. A sweet little snuggler, she is just a over a month old. A baby is a great way to celebrate a new year!
This finishes up January for my Project 365 for 2012. I have a new theme for February - stay tuned!
