Oooooh, Carol, those cards sound awesome! Yes, you should definitely use them for the swap! And just between you and me, you really need to look at SoulCollage, my friend! I think it's right up your alley. Anne Marie Bennett started a group here ...

Mary, One of the comments says they've been around for 20 years...Good grief! Where have I been???? They have a sound that is unique and raw and enjoyable. I listened to several vids and typed out my lesson plans for the week in record time. :-) T...

Jane, I'm just now seeing this and it's wonderful! Lots of imagery, but it's the sounds and smells that you really brought out for me. Thank you...more, more!!

Here's a YouTube video of them singing one of my favorites, "Morning Glory." It's not the greatest video, but it's more the sound that they're putting out lately (i.e. less drums, more percussion, less keyboard and more accordian). Hope you like!...

The photo looks like you had a lot of fun. And it was a bit of a reunion, to boot. Are they anywhere on the net, like a youtube vid or something similar? I'd love to hear what they sound like... (Love the band's name :-)

Dan, If I ever come to visit your land, I want to take time out to go on a photo shoot with you and your "little friend" camera early some morning...or, late some afternoon. These are exquisite photos.

Last night we went to a Subdudes concert in Fall River, MA. It was so much fun! One of the members of the band is a guy that I basically grew up with. It was awesome to see him again! The Subdudes' music is so much fun. http://coachcreativespace....

Wow! What a beautiful thing to witness. Thank you for sharing this, Barb! The "old" elephant at the Denver Zoo when I was growing up was named Cookie. She had at least two babies, I remember. Cookie lived to be very old, and she died just a few y...

Thanks on Nov. 3, 2009 http://coachcreativespace.ning.com/photo/thankful-11309 Yesterday was election day. The polls were open until 8 p.m. so it was a long day of waiting and anticipation for many, many people. I listened to the radio until alm...

Thank you, Jane! That was so much fun to write - totally spontaneous and I was smiling broadly when it was finished. I know what you mean about the smell of a typewriter ribbon - what memory that evoked for me! And, yes, the inky fingertips from f...

It was too good to be true. A free ticket to Fall River and me with a day to kill. What the heck? As I departed the city bus to board the Greyhound, I caught a whiff of it. "No way!" I thought. As I turned to look, there he was - my brother the ar...

My Rainbow from spacefem.com

Saw this on DJ's blog, so had to try it for myself. The results are inspiring at the moment. Tomorrow, maybe I'll see if anything different comes up!

Your rainbow is intensely shaded red, violet, and indigo.

Today

Hello Friends!

Thank you for hanging in here with and for me. It's been a long road from Winter to Spring, but I feel as if I'm in full bloom, and I am happy, happy, happy...about most things!

Today I helped my friend Elizabeth turn her home into an "art gallery" full of her daughter's artworks. Erin (a member of CCS) just graduated from high school and will be enrolling in Art Institute of Boston in the Fall. Her mother, Elizabeth, and I worked for several hours this afternoon "framing" a bun… Continue

Thank you so much Mary for the lovely welcome and your wonderful comments about 'The Red Fingernail' and 'Halloween Egg'
I am still finding my way around CCS, so I apologise if I have sent this message to the wrong place. :)

Hi Mary! You know, your comment about my altered book REALLY touched my heart. thank you SO much for taking the time to look at it and to give me such AWESOME support and feedback. Hugs!

You are nice :) Thanks for making me smile with your nice comment!

Mary, Thanks for the e-mail. For some reason, the ning system won't let me reply to it, even though I've tried several times.
But, yes, school has started here, and the year ahead looks exciting. I hope your eighth grader is doing well academically and socially. Keep your prayers going for him, and he'll be fine.
I posted a bit about the Honduras trip on My CCS Page under "DJ's Stuff" and will post more on my "DJ's Studio" blog soon. Check it out when you get a chance...God is good.
It sounds like you're really into art journaling and enjoying it! I think it's great. If you want to start a journal swap with me, I'd enjoy it very much. Whee! All I ask is that we keep it non-themed so we can each do what we want artistically. Is that OK with you? :-)
We can each begin by doing a couple of pages in our own, then swap them, right?
Let me know what you're thinking. :-)
So glad to hear you're doing well...Happy Labor Day Weekend to you & yours...
Love & Laughter,
Deej

Mary, Thanks so much. I think counted cross stitching is relaxing unless you are doing a large project. Then it can get to be frustrating. Right now I a m sticking with the small pieces.
