Friends/mentors......family.......creative pets

Ever have one of those days where it seems everything goes wrong.........and then a friend will call out of the blue and make everything seem right? Well, yesterday was that day......long story short, I was having a really bad morning, crying the whole works...then a friend that I sew with, laugh with,etc....called and said I thought you needed a call. Boy was she ever right......mood lifted!!! Then something else happened, again here I am in the dumps again, then my mentor/friend from the candy store called. This call meant the most to me, I haven't heard from her in over a year.......she moved away......sniff sniff....2 years ago and taught me what I needed to know to help out at the candy store ( Even make chocolates..yum!!!) What she doesn't realize is that she gave me a confidence to be creative, I had shown her some things that I had made out of polymer clay, and she asked me to make something for her. I still want to do something special for her......as soon as I get out of my funk........................

I'm going to ask you who read this, call someone you care about, just to say hi. You never know, they might really need to hear a friendly voice and get words of encouragement or just need a laugh.

Now for something I want to share, Anna's school does something wonderful every year, and that is to have a father/daughter dance. It's a special night that Anna and Gene look forward to every year ( this is the second year that they go),

I still have to scan the picture that was taken that night....they both look so much better, plus it shows Anna's corsage, that Gene had to come back to the house to get....................They had a great night.....................

OOOOOOOOOOOppppppppppppppppps, almost forgot to mention, Noelle, the American Bobtail that Gene gave me for Christmas is creative too......here she is making her Christmas stocking for next year....I guess she doesn't want to miss out on treats and toys..........now just to teach her that pins and spools of thread are off limits........ggggggggggggg


Here's Pumpkin and Noelle trying to figure out how to get more treats and toys..........think they can?Brian, my stepson, is in the Navy, we were fortunate enough to get a visit from him before he gets stationed in Guam............so here's Matt, being goofy, Anna and Brian...............

OK everyone stay creative and connected.....you never know where or from whom your creativity will lead.............HUGS!!!!!!
