I will definitely forward them on to Jason. That makes you all a part of his journey.<br /><br />Peggy, look at all you have gone through. And you know what? You are still standing! Congratulations, woman, you ARE a survivor! FYI, I am just starting Susan’s book. It came when I had just started a new sci-fi novel with high hopes of being well entertained. I have been slogging for days trying to finish it but have finally concluded it is dreck! For the first time in ages, I have decided to quit reading without finishing. I would much rather read something well written like Susan’s book than waste time on junk writing. <br /><br />I’m glad everyone seems to like the red hat photo. The photographer told me to bring hats for their playful effect. We had a ball doing the shoot, including changing clothes in the parking lot! Good thing I had the hat because it was ungodly hot that day and without the hat, my hair would have been realllllllly bad!<br /><br />Looks like with the Europeans off to bed things might be calming down a bit for the day. How do you all last so long? You have the endurance of Energizer Bunnies! I’m going to take a break and catch up on a couple of emails and then watch the news to see if anything big has happened today. Sure hope they are making progress on the huge fire in Los Angeles.<br /><br />Hugs everyone. Sweet dreams to those of you who are off to bed. I’ll check in again in a bit.Cathy Marleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03146428413592040881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422983897713906924.post-10619949751166685872009-09-01T16:31:45.260-07:002009-09-01T16:31:45.260-07:00I'm off to the post office (if I hurry) and to...I'm off to the post office (if I hurry) and to meet one of my cousins at the coffee shop.

My ...Peggy, you can say the library thing twice :)<br /><br />My big transition is still in full swing, mostly concerning the divorce recently, but if I didn't decide to do it, I'd never learn so much about myself-who I am and who I want to be! I found my way without guidelines and speed restrictions imposed by others. So many things I yearned for were there already. I just needed to open my eyes and see them. And take notice of all the widely open doors waiting to go through and chances to be seized. If others don't have dreams, it doesn't mean by far they have the right to smother yours!<br />Hm...transition or--growing up?Ivanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18243664836278611954noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422983897713906924.post-62996791824649346912009-09-01T14:51:24.955-07:002009-09-01T14:51:24.955-07:00Carrie just emailed me her new song!

Starting in June 2002, my oldest daughter graduated high school, my first husband (of 19 years) walked out, I lost my job (and did the happy dance as I was saying goodbye to everyone) and was diagnosed with breast cancer. <br /><br />Talk about a life dope slap ;-) Got my attention..that's for sure!<br /><br />xxooPeggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09848194956406520874noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5422983897713906924.post-65105910200349428382009-09-01T14:38:12.683-07:002009-09-01T14:38:12.683-07:00Thank you for SS!
