E Komo Mai! Welcome to my blog.

I'm delighted that you dropped in! E Komo Mai: WELCOME! This blog is basically an online visual journal is modeled after a concept I learned of in psychology 101... waaaaaaay back in college. That concept was somewhere in the chapter on The Significance of Dreams, where it mentioned someone's theory on dreaming about a house usually means that the house represents you. So I have used my actual house (Mauna Lea Manor) to structure my blog. In different rooms you will find different aspects of my life; different interests I like to blog about. This is a way to bring a little organization into my life and thoughts for myself... (dreams are in The Bedroom, Family updates are in The Living room, etc.)
This also, I would imagine, make reading this blog more convenient for you as well. If you are a grandparent interested in seeing photos and hearing stories about my boys, but maybe not so interested in my bellydancing obsession: you can just read what goes on in The Playground. But if you are an Art Collector more interested in my latest work and information on collecting, but not especially interested in my personal life: you'd enjoy The Office. Mauna Lea Manor is sort of the foyer to all the other rooms. If you would like to tour my online portfolio, please visit: www.stephaniebolton.com.
I hope you enjoy your time here ;) & continue to stop by!

NEW 10 Week Bellydance/Crafting class
 Jan 4, 2012 - March 7, 2012 
Dear Stephanie,

This latest offering is a  midweek treat to exercise your BODY & MIND!

I've had a lot of women tell me that they wished I had an Incense class for adults, so....  
This is a two-part fitness & crafting class designed to cultivate the kind of fun community gathering that gets you through your week!
 
Adults need to play too! It reduces stress, improving our physical & emotional health... and when mama's happy= the whole family benefits!
When you schedule in a little time for you to relax, exercise & have fun with your gals- you can be the patient, kind, loving person you want to be!
So call up your girlfriends & schedule in some girl time!

This is an opportunity to make new friends or a good excuse to spend more time with friends you already know & love! 

Great Christmas or new Year's gift for a friend! Resolve to get fit TOGETHER! Nothing says "I love you" like T-I-M-E together! Show you care & appreciate their friendship by givng a gift that brings you together more often to do something fun!
