Beautiful art piece of mine that I had done awhile back. It brings smiles and calmness to my heart.
💜
This week I am finishing up my last 5 classes with final projects, papers and homework. Next week are finals for my Fall semester. I'm amazed being 39 and I am doing way better than when I was a teen with school . It's a dream and I'm working hard to get that Family Science degree.
🦋
I want to help individuals and Families in anyway I can along with building up my talents and passions with my husband Tarl. Working on our store online and much more to come.
💜
Though stresses may come your way in many forms, don't forget to see what you're focusing on .
💜
I have 2 semesters left and if all works out will graduate Summer 2023 just in time for my 40th Birthday. I am grateful for the support my husband and all others give me. It's hard but I am capable.
💜
Enjoy your day. Focus on what matters to you. Give yourself breaks, permission, release and whatever else you need. You're Capable and amazing.
💜
Keep shining ✨️ Be inspired ✨️

Hello Beautiful Souls 😍
I hope you and your loved ones had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Tarl and I had a wonderful time together. It's just the two of us . He's the oldest of 9 and I'm in between of 11 or 12 🤣 . There's 13 of us.
All our siblings and extended family and parents are scattered out . We're just in a beautiful small town in Texas . In our home we bought last year . Been married little over 2 years and enjoying the journey. Who knew after so much heartbreak, dreams, wishes and prayers that we could find love again especially among covid where we were shut down healing from our divorces and alone. I in Ohio and he in Texas.
We firmly believe that God played a huge role at that time. We're deeply grateful and enjoying this wonderful journey. Tarl is 46 and working fulltime as a technical writer. Then he enjoys time with me and working on the creative projects he's doing. Right now he's working on his first graphic novel.
You can see more of his creative works and books here
I am still in Fall semester and 3 weeks from finals. These are the rough weeks. Especially when I'm having inflammatory arthritis and Oestoarthritis flare ups along with playing with insulin levels for my type 2 diabetes. I still see several of my specialists and working together to fix me up.
Being 39 I'm so stoked for my 40th Birthday. You can read more of my 40things before my 40th birthday. One of them to get my Family Science degree and be a Family life educator.
We're enjoying our time and see the blessings in all circumstances. Hard being away from family especially when you had your twin and 2 little nephews here for 8 months since last November. But they are in their own little chapter of a new journey.
Between time we try to keep up with the store and social media accounts. Know it's still a work in progress but all is well. We appreciate all the support. You can follow for more on our linktrees in the contact page of the website. Or here 😀
I got tons of school to do. But I wanted to share an update. Just know you're enough. You're appreciated. Blessings are all around . Know that all things happen for a reason. There's much heartache in life but also there's so much joy and purpose.
May you know that answers will come in time. Your deepest desires will be answered. Be patient. Keep the hope. You're not alone or forgotten.
Oh, btw you truly matter. What you're doing with your life is great . I wish you all the best and we're here for you. Please show yourself more love and care. Keep those around you close. Make amends to those that hurt you.
You're enough. Keep shining ✨️ Be inspired ✨️
Talk soon 💜

"You're Not Alone "by Jackie Telford 2022
Newest wood art piece. One challenge I completed.
I've always been real on my Feelings. Usually I Express in an artistic way or words. I'm coming close to 4 weeks left of fall semester. I then just have 2 semesters left till graduation. Been a long journey.
The thing is I've always kept going in anything and did my best and even when things or people literally wanted to be rid of me. When adversary tries or thinks he has won. I come back even stronger.
You see I love my life and my amazing journey with Tarl . I am grateful in all circumstances. But sometimes things get so overwhelming and challenging 😪 like school and big project coming up. Also the many specialists I see, off meds for diabetes then try this , off 2 insulin then back on with mix.
My rheumatoid arthritis and Oestoarthritis with horrible flareups especially weather changes it hurts. I'm 39 and I have had over 12 surgeries, tons of procedures, tests, medicines, and other challenges. I hurt . I cry. I push to get out of bed at times. It comes and goes. There's no exaggerating. It's exhausting.
Tarl sees its and I love he can hug and pray for me or bless me. I am safe with him. And it helps me know how blessed I am despite my trials. I have my special person.
But he can't take away my pain, my challenges or overwhelming situations in school or life. He is there. Just as our Savior. I pray for angels just as he was in Gethsemane being strengthened. We're not alone.
Lyrics I've written 🎶🎶🎶
I just ask that we show each of our family members near and far or those friends or family we haven't spoken to , show more compassion and love. More communication and empathy. Even those in community, church, neighbors, strangers around the world.
Not just when disasters or trauma or holidays. Everyone hurts. Everyone sins. Everyone has needs and challenges. Just love not judge. Please. Please look after yourselves, family and love ones. Because we all need that light within us to shine and definitely the saviors love which comes from all . Especially when you've had enough and feel helpless.
Share goodness. Mourn with others. Love one another. Help one another. Treat one another . Forgive one another. Care for one another.
Be there for each other. Near or far. Surprise. Text. Vist. Gift. Love. Hug. Pray. Each day . Show support and let others know you're there and they are important. ( Not just holidays)
I could use prayers of strength too. 💜
