Purses

I was in a restaurant yesterday & I noticed women's purses. What kind of purse matches what kind of woman? How many purses does anyone have? I have many,many purses. But I tend towards big leather sacks. Like I could put a whole weekend in my purse. And I love the smell of leather. So how many should a woman have? I switch mine around a lot. I think I have at least 25 bags. An obsession or collection? There were 20 women & each had a different purse but the purses matched the women.does your purse match you? Is it a purse or handbag? What's the difference?

Support, not hose

I got to thinking about support today. Not support stockings, but people support. In our times of trouble what do we do? We look for help. We reach out. If we don't reach out then we feel that we are at the end & the sun will never shine again. Some people never reach & feel that there is no one. They take their own life.
Some do reach & grab on to a lifeline. Family should help family. Friend should help friend. Groups should help members. My hubby was going down a dark, dark hole & he did attempt suicide twice.But then he reached & we grabbed him. He goes to a support group called Emotions Anonymous. It's based on a 12 step program. But it'a fantasic support group. He has more options than he realized. It was a bad time when he had his attempts. He still fights his depression daily. There are ups & downs. But with support & love daily he is beginning to love life again.

No Regrets Tour

I'm going to Fla today. I'm finally going to meet Betsy & Denise! I wish more would have come, but maybe next time! I'm so excited!

Family Ties

Just thinking about family tonight. Why are some people closer to use than our own blood family? There are some family that I haven't seen in a very long time & yet I see other people more often. I am going on a trip to see someone I've never met but I still don't see family as much. Do we take for granted that family will always be there? Do we think that they have to love us because we are family? Or not? But I do love my family even if they are a little disfunctional. And not because I have to, it's because I want to.

Pink Ladybugs

This weekend I am finally going to Fla! In honor of a lady I never met. About a year ago I had a breast cancer scare. My husband was traveling alot & wasn't home. One night I found a breast cancer web site & I logged on. I told my story about how scared I was. Immediately  a woman answered me. She called herself Cajun Lady. This woman calmed all my fears & answered my questions. I then met many more women on this site. We all talked till late in the night. The support was fantastic. Cajun Lady then became Angel Mama to many of us. She calmed many women. Many women have since died & Angel Mama became a real Angel Mama in heaven. So a few of us are going to meet at one lady's house. Her name is Faith.There will be tears but also laughter. We will talk about the Cajun Lady, Angel Mama, & all the others who have died. I do not have breast cancer but am considered a high risk patient now. Please support breast cancer research. Too many Pink Ribbons, Too many Angel Mamas.

My Inspirations

There is an herb shop by my house that I have become a frequent visitor to. The owner is a very calm, soft spoken,gentle lady. When you go into her shop you do feel less anxious. She has an amazing variety of merchandise. I usually buy some dried herbs & a new healing crystal. So I met a lady about a year ago at a consignment shop that she owned & became friends. This lady (Cheryl) moved away to Arizona & just moved back.Cheryl is a very calming & peaceful lady also. I took her to the herb shop. Cheryl is my inspiration for the art on this blog. So I am still learning about herbs & crystal stones. And probably will always be learning.

Doing things on my own

I'm still trying this. I do have a family but they are all sleeping now & wouldn't help me anyway. So this is a work in progress. A learning experience!

Wow

I think I figured out some of this. Anyhow the pictures are from an artist named Francine Hart. They're all so beautiful.

I'm Trying

Ok, I'm going to try this again. It can't be too hard, right? Never give up, keep pushing, reach for the stars, & soar like an eagle!
