So now I am sitting at my computer, looking out at the winter wonderland - probably for the last time this year. I plan on a small snowshoe tonight - just enough to feel alive and sparkly.
I can't thank you all enough for your thoughts, prayers and advice. Many of us have lost loved ones this year, and all the different yet similar experiences are so helpful to hear. Nothing one feels is "wrong" or "right" - time for healing must be allowed, time to grieve, time to come to terms with the new world. Relationships are changed in an instant, balances shift. Time honored beliefs are changed. I feel like listening to "Turn, turn, turn" - remember that?
So now it is time for a Giveaway! In anticipation of a large project that I am working on, I did a trial picture book using my infamous Miss Em. And I LOVE the way it turned out and will be doing more. But I'd like to give one (or more!) away to my friends. I have a few names in the magic hat already (Fern,Lynn, Teri, Miss Cynthia, Deb, SB, lolo..) but leave your name on this post if you want to be in the giveaway and I will pick a name on Friday, March 6th. You will receive a hard cover book, signed by yours truly, of about 20 Miss Em pictures.
I really could go wild with this book type production, it was alot of work but SO much fun to see the end effort. And all done on the MAC - with the touch of a few buttons.Much love to all, Mim

Dear Mim,
All I can say is WOW and thank you from the bottom of my heart. The book arrived today and I was blown away. I even looked up your phone number and left a message...probably at the wrong house! I just wanted you to know how much I appreciate it.
I'll treasure it!

And am still trying to get your final word on the cards so I can send them out to you. 8 or 10? And if ten please choose two more.
Thanks, Lynn the nag! ;-)
