Musings

Since I've been a good blogger and posted pictures in the past few days, I'm rambling here a bit! The Gingerwood Bulletin Board is still down and I'm going through withdrawal. I miss those ladies!! . . . My mom is getting frailer and losing weight almost every day (which according to the internet, is a bad sign). I shouldn't get my medical advice from the internet, but I feel like a junior MD by sticking to legitimate medical sites. . .and really, the docs don't have good news for me anyway . . . I'm anxiously awaiting news of Julie Ebersole's on line magazine she's been tapped to edit . . . she's one knowledgeable and talented lady. I love the fact that she creates new things and doesn't follow the pack . . . Guess what?? Atomicbutterfly and Notimetostamp (SCS ladies) have been commenting on my cards in my gallery. I love their work, so I'm feeling full of myself!! I have Tuesday off from work because of President Ford's funeral. An extra day to play is always welcome, but I'm sad it is due to a death. I reset the counter to this blog at the beginning of October and it is over 26,000 by now (but that includes me checking to see if anyone has posted a comment, so there have been at least 4 hits since October) LOL Seriously, I know you are reading -- do me a fave, and every once in a while comment. It makes me feel all warm and cozy!

  2. Yours was the first blog I ever looked at and was so impressed that I began to check out others, starting with your list of other blogs. Now I am addicted! There are some talented ladies out there, of which you are certainly one! Thank you for sharing your work and your life with us all, I know I appreciate it very much!

    I'm sorry that your mom isn't doing well, but I'm sure it does her good to be with you instead of in some hospital. I will keep you all in my thoughts.
