If I have to dress well for an event, I just copy the mannequin. I buy everything the mannequin is wearing, accessories and all. I may not look original when I go out, but I look well-dressed and pulled-together, and that's really all I want.Margaret Yanghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06464624057491288244noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-91665354943749580132010-05-29T18:38:39.176-04:002010-05-29T18:38:39.176-04:00Four books in less that 6 months, or even 12 month...Four books in less that 6 months, or even 12 months if that's what you mean...

They are the most comfortable things to wear, plus you don't need pantyhose! <br /><br />I know you've worked hard on those four books and just want to tell you that we really appreciate it. <br /><br />Now, go sit with the family and relax!

Of course, I live in Georgia where it's too bloody hot for the blessed things, but I'm 45 years old and haven't worn them in ten years. That four books in a year thing will really burn your circuits. I did that last year and am still recovering. I'm aiming for three this year and am just now finishing the first one. Fortunately a couple of those are books that I've had for a while and am nearly finished with anyway.roslynholcombhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03423350501595717113noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-62904699035347346412010-05-29T11:29:07.024-04:002010-05-29T11:29:07.024-04:00I feel like a stranger in a strange land.

I understand though what you've been going through and to have a whole year now to write just one book, to have a bit of a life back...bliss! You must be ecstatic. :o)<br /><br />The big problem with toilet paper is when it rains, the paper turns to something akin to a thin pasteboard and seems like it takes years to fall out of your trees. Been there. *sigh* A definite PITA though the kids don't think that far in advance.<br /><br />And an aside to Charlene, you can't be too far from me if you're willing to drive to AA to get a book! :o)nightsmusichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05984119792540771870noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-39938838527318504842010-05-29T10:18:46.853-04:002010-05-29T10:18:46.853-04:00Our "toilet paper home improvement" come...Our "toilet paper home improvement" comes in the autumn with High School Homecoming. I'm too old to climb the trees so I've taken the middle path and just use the garden hose with a high pressured attachment to "shoot down" the decorations in the tops of the trees... I don't get it all, but it definitely easier than risking breaking my body from a fall...<br /><br />Enjoy your blessed weekend!Todd the Viking Kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09095270082622545180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-45421575243584946222010-05-29T09:16:24.840-04:002010-05-29T09:16:24.840-04:00Thanks for the post -- I feel joy too.

I...Well, crikey, P.! What a blog!! My comments:<br /><br />I'm guessing Dreamveil won't be available for a couple weeks here in Aus, but I'm looking forward to it. No comment on children, since I don't have any. My dad died from an Alzheimer related stroke and all I can say is: be patient and love them (no matter how much it hurts).<br /><br />So tell me again <i>why</i> jeans and a witty t-shirt aren't acceptable? Ditto on the pantyhose (who thought they were a good idea?) As for pitching more books, while that's an excellent idea for fans, I'm wondering whether you remember a few years ago when you pitched... how many? And <i>all</i> were accepted. Remember the stress?<br /><br />Oh, and finally, remember toilet paper is biodegradable. It will turn to mulch soon enough.Jaye Patrickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05595648222196000153noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-86628521316797254862010-05-29T07:54:23.213-04:002010-05-29T07:54:23.213-04:00After we get through all the 'stuff' in li...After we get through all the 'stuff' in life and still can see and feel the Joy....we are living well.<br /><br />I have a graduation to go to also....and only jeans to wear...I hate shopping...my dad was dyslexic and had dementia- he is now passed...I am a writer who is not an author(yet) but am happy I can write....the economy is getting better...I have a place to live, food on the table, and am healthy for the most part.
