Today I received this photographs of a carved tree located in South Africa. It is so awesome to me. The faces of the animals speak a thousand words. I want to touch them to see if they are indeed real : )
At 59, and going on another adventure, I feel so good whenever I see something new and amazing. It makes me realize I have so many more adventures to go on and there is enough time to see more. When I hear Corey talk about the flea markets in France, Marita talk so lovingly of her Southern Valley, Mary speak softly of her cottage in Massilon, Ohio (Lillian Gish's birthplace), Jamie speak so generously of family and friends in Southern California, Amy talk of tag sales in Iowa, Pinkie~Denise show us her many fine vintage collections, Betty in Clovis showing us her favorites little shops,
and Constance, enlivening our world with her Floralina's and purses extrodinare. Take a minute to go to her blog as she is having a party; celebrating her 1 year of blogging!!! Please wear your party hat : )
All of these wonderfully different blogs give me hope I shall make it to all parts of the world and see life through their eyes. The thing I find in the camaraderie with blogger's is the diversity of everyone. I feel so fortunate to have met ladies in Bloglandia that give their heart in open hands : )
Lest, anyone forget, my Friend Phyllis over at Shabby In The City!!!
Okay, girls/ladies have a marvelous day!!!
PEACE
This day May 16th 2008 finds me preparing for a new adventure...again : )
I have not posted since December 6th, 2007. I went to Oklahoma, saw, did not conquer and came back to Los Angeles to recuperate. I am preparing to "Leave On A Jet Plane" May 22nd and fly to Honolulu Hawaii for some job interviews. Please all of you; pray that I am hired so I can stay on the island of Oahu and continue my life adventurously : )
Last year in July 27th I flew to Oahu and was offered 2 jobs and chose to come back to the mainland. My life is so totally free now I can, without any guilt, accept a job and stay on Oahu. My daughters, all 3, are living productive independent lives and Mama is not needed like previously : ) I am truly inspired by their independence!!!
I no longer need a doctor's care and my spine and back are pretty well healed. It has been a bit over 7 months since having the spine surgery and my neurologist said I am in the 1% who will not require any more surgeries. I am sure much of it had to do with the prayers you ladies so unselfishly sent my way!!!
I will be able to post photographs as I am in Honolulu so I will keep you up to date on this my
New Adventure : )
My humble intentions are:
#1 get a job
#2 be a merchant on this blog
#3 have nice embellishments (vintage and new) for all of you crafter's, artist's and scrap bookers that come to this simple blog
#4 give credit to Phyllis from Shabby In The City for the inspiration to sell. She has the most wonderful Flea Market Friday's on her blog. I wanted to have a Market too : ) So, after expressing my desire to her she said I was required to pay her $1,000,000.00 in Confederate Paper money for the idea : )
Anyone know where I can find some? : )
Peace
