Sometimes I’m Serious

August 15, 2007

It happens. If you’ve been reading this blog for any amount of time, maybe you’ve wondered if I ever get reflective. And yes, there are a few posts sprinkled here and there that are not about something I’m cracking up at.

And you may have noticed, had you explored some of the categories that I write music and have never found a way to put it on here. I only sing at our church, and I’m content doing that.

Recently I’ve become obsessed with making slideshows with my new Photoshop Elements program, and so I’d like to present two things I love to do and share: my music and my art/photography.

I hope you don’t find that a little too narcissistic. But art is for sharing and you always have the option of clicking yourself out of here as fast as you possibly can.

Oh! and before I forget, the recording was a very basic one, with just me on the piano and nothing else added.

If it doesn’t work, please email me or leave a comment. It works ok on mine as long as it’s fully loaded first. Enjoy.

    Hey, I’ve posted 2 serious entries in the past couple of weeks, which is scary, even to me. I need you to log in to HSB and read my latest one, ’cause you can answer some questions for me.

    I can’t see the video, but I’m sure it’s amazing!

    Carrie, that was beautiful. God has blessed you with so much talent, you are definitely an asset to Him. I have a (adult) son and a daughter who have been gifted by God also in singing and art and you all are a glory to God and a blessing to those around you. :)

    [...] When I am inspired, there’s nothing that I love more than to sit at the piano and write songs. There’s just something euphoric about the words and melody and chords all coming together into something that expresses worship to my Creator. I wish it happened more often. You can hear one here.

    Came across your new portrait offer on ETSY and followed to your blog…which brought on quite a few smiles and laughter…which started with the “would it kill you to comment”…

    Great talent…enjoyed!

    [...] know how I feel about slideshows. Nothing says It better than music and images, in my opinion. But there’s a few things [...]

Welcome to My Madness

Chanklas? You're probably wondering what this blog is all about. And all I can say is this: There's a quote from Tender Is The Night by F. Scott Fitzgerald that says, "Suppose we don't have any nonsense." Hello, My Name Is Carrie And... That is appalling to me, since my life is comprised of a lot of nonsense. The nonsense of chaos. This is where I organize that chaos into words, so someone can at least have a laugh out of the deal. Patitas
