Yayeeeee!! Go Linda, go Linda!! You got on!! Good for you...now we can keep better track of eachother from now on. I am sitting here today with a snowstorm blowing outside! I spent several hours snuggled in my studio working on the Military art piece honoring Dad. Also began putting together an art piece for mom...takes much planning...lots of time. I am using an old robe, nightgown, lace curtains, photos etc for hers....things that represent her/her life/her loves. When I get the two done I will photo them and post them on the blog for you to see. Noone sees them before that...sorry! I love my little studio!
Christy told me to tell everyone she cannot participate on this blog as she has absolutly no time. Between classes, homework, study, kids, dogs, a husband, a house, a job she just cannot take on another thing. She says she will have more time next year when she graduates. She loves you all and wishes you well. I do too and hope you are all happy. I love you!
Now, I would like to share a lovely poem with my sisters;
by Anne Morrow Lindbergh
Already I have shed the leaves of youth,
Stripped by the wind of time down to the truth
Of winter branches. Linear and alone
I stand, a lens for lives beyond
my own,
A frame through which anothers fire may blow,
A harp on which another's passions blow.
The patterns of my boughs,
an open chart
Spread on the sky, to others
may impart
Its leafless mysteries that once
I prized,
Before bare roots and
branches equalized;
Tendrils that tap the rain
or twigs the sun
Are all the same, shadow and
substance one.
Now that my vulnerable leaves
are cast aside,
There's nothing left to shield,
nothing to hide.
Blow through me, Life, pared down
at last to bone,
So fragile and so fearless
have I grown!
