Hello dear blogging buddies!!!

I am in love with art in it's many forms...I seem to jump to different mediums....If you have been following me for a while you may already know that!! Sometimes I feel there are different artists inside of me and sometimes one makes itself very clear that it must Paint...or the other one must Sew.....or this one loves to do Collages and Doodle a bit!!
Soooo do not worry!!! I do not have multiple personalities...I just like to mix it up sometimes!!! :D

Tell me what you think about this ok? Feedback is a great thing!!
Thanks!

Love, Light and Laughter to ALL,

Susan

    Hi, good to meet you thanks for joining! So far 50 has been great ;)

    The Old man od Storr is the other end of the island to us were at the leafy end! Great views from up there - look back, when you have time at the 'walk' I took everybody on round the hill by my house.

    I love a good mix of stitching, painting & collaging - keeps things exciting!

    I think it's just WONDERFUL! Like you, and for that matter, like MOST creative souls, I enjoy doing lots of different things. Very few of us NEVER try any new art genres, and the majority of us have to stick our curious fingers in MANY artistic endeavors! I'm terrible at collages or any SORT of paper-related art, but you have a gift for it! In one piece, you have given so many aspects of a woman's being! Wonderful job! I love it!

    Darn I was hoping you had multiple personalities and they could talk to mine. lol
    How are you honey and are you staying out of the heat.
    I always love everything you create. Just wish it would rub off on me.
    My wedding pictures are up so stop by and have a good laugh
    Love

    Thanks so much for visiting my blog with such sweet comments! I see you are into art journaling as well. I love the doodles and images. Perhaps you can paint the background first with different complimentary colors? I hope you are enjoying your summer!

My Beautiful Sam Passed Away This Afternoon......

Image
Hello Dear Friends, With an extremely heavy heart I tell you that I have lost my little friend tonight. I thought he was having hairball problems and so my husband and I brought him to the vets late this afternoon. Upon arrival Sam was gasping for breath and they rushed him into a room and gave him ogygen. The nurse asked us if she could take an x-ray to see what was going on. When the nurse came back to the room she told us the devastating news, that Sam had a tumor next to his heart and that his lungs were filled with fluid. I was just floored....I am still in shock. We had Sam for 4 1/2 years and he was...well how do I explain to you the love that he gave us....he was always there for me....he would lie by my side in bed when I was ill and after two major surgeries....he would eat, have is water, and just stay with me. I always said he was a gift from God and he truly was. Tonight this is what I have learned.....even after my Sam has passed away he leaves this last gift   ....

Friends and Flowers

Hi Blogging Friends, I wanted to share this lovely bouquet of flowers that was brought to my door this afternoon. My dear friend Maggie sent these to me for my birthday.....they are so Beautiful and Maggie is an absolute doll to think of me. I know we all talk about our friendships here in blogland that we have found, and I know we appreciate each other very much. My life has changed so much in the last 9 years. I have had many surgeries and things going wrong physically which limited me quite a bit. Since 2003 I have not been able to drive anymore and that in itself was a big blow to me. I inherited a rare disease of the corneas in which I have had multiple surgeries for over the years, hence no more driving. Well I can go on but I will stop there. The real point in all of this is I have been lonely and needed somehow to connect with people and then I discovered the World of Blogging!!  WOW...I never dreamed that I would meet such loving and caring folks....
