    Okay, I'll do it. Thanks everyone for your kind words, they mean allot to me.

    For me, well, I look at those pictures and see all the mistakes, all the flaws, the things I wanted to do differently but didn't know how.

    I thank you, I really do. :)

    Starby, you have been holding out on us or I have just missed out. I didn't know you created floral designs. PLEASE post them. After you scan them and save to a file, if you need help posting them, let us know. Floral designs set the mood of the room. I have zilch talent in that area. I am so anxious to see some of your creations!! I can't believe I haven't seen some of them before.

    Rebbie, Starby's a pro, used to own her own floral shop. I haven't seen any of her creations either, but I'm very sure that she's great at what she does. In fact, and I hope she doesn't mind me telling anyone, she just got a contract to do floral arrangements, I can tell she's very excited about it. This isn't her first contract, but I'm hoping, for her, that this one will be the beginning of an at home business with many contracts coming her way. :)

    I'm not goo with flower arrangements either, I've tried, but it always looks like a 5 year old put it together, sad. ;)

    Alty, how did little Starby keep this a secret for so long?? LOL I am so ready to see some of her creations.

    Starby is deep, we'll never know everything. ;) No, I don't think it ever really came up, that's why she's never mentioned it. I hope she's not mad that I told.

    Starby, sweetie, forgive me? ;)

    Haha! You're reasonably safe Alty! ;) I thought I had brought it up that I'm a floral designer, and used to have my own shop and stuff. I think Firmy and Clough and a few others knew for sure, because we were all having a conversation one day. I think it was on the "these are amazing" thread.

    I got a job as a receptionist/gopher, at a flower shop when I was really young, and after awhile, the owner started to let me make little things. I loved it, so I stuck with it.

    Betcha all didn't know that I've been skydiving too did you! LOL! (I missed my mark, and almost landed on a cow once... hahaha!)

    I've always been amazed at the Talent of this guy , he draws 3D crayon drawings on sidewalks. I'll see if I can find some more.

    I've seen some of his work before too, he's great. It does make me sad though, first rainfall and bye bye art. :(

    He's dipping, how amazing! It's just so incredible... the kids look like they're having a great time and are about to be swallowed by a crocodile.

    I just love this photo. The boat on the right is my Uncle's sailboat, FreeWind. This is my grandparent's front yard in Maine. Oh, to be in Maine today! :)
