    Atascadero isn’t bad. I grew up in Santa Maria.

    Attended Cal Poly in SLO.

    So what is hubby’s new job, who is it with?

    And sorry I don’t know who did your little fairy guy…I was so hoping the initials would be MG, because I know where to find her.

    Wicks N’ Sticks is where I saw my first Windstones too.

    At the time I was wild about unicorns, still am, my very first serious gift from my husband was the reared up stallion.

    I have loved your work from the start, you work puts most other dragon and fantasy 3D art to shame, your work so obviously ready to get up and walk or fly.

    I will be getting more of your dragons very soon. And I can not wait until the griffons are available, and I already have a shelf saved for the AL SK.

    Make him a dragon and then send a note with him saying that he sounded blue, and you thought this guy would cheer him up.

    We’ve had suicide rear its ugly head here a few times. Recently one of my best friends lost his stepbrother to it. My husband lost a dear friend in high school, and our live in has considered it more than once, and told us if is wasn’t for us, he’d be dead. And last summer we lost a dear friend, worst part was the whole list basically was there while it happened. First we got a panic stricken email from her sister to the list asking if any of us knew where she was. A day later we got our answer, LB had been found and she had left us, her 4 kids and her husband and lover by suicide.

    It’s a tough scary situation to be dealing with. I remember when our live in first came here, I was terrifed to leave him alone. So scared of what I’d come home to. It was a really scary 3 or 4 months. Thankfully with a lot of love and support he made it through, it has been 6 years since and he is doing very well now.

    Just try to be as loving and supportive as you can from where you are. If you can talk to him over the phone, that might help.

    But the truth is, if someone decides that they really want to go, there isn’t a whole lot that can be done. LB gave us no warning, we had no clues at all that she was feeling that way. Her loss broadsided the whole mailing list, many of whom had met her in person, on top of that, she was responsible for talking others out of the course she took. So it was even more of a shock.

    Just try to be the best friend you can, and be as supportive as the distances between you allow.

    Hang in there.

    Now the hard part, moving….at least you know this will be the last time you have to move.

    in reply to: VERY BAD NEWS!! #569250

    Ah damn, I had so hoped you would have more time with her.

    I am so sorry to hear she is gone. If you need us, we’re here. Lots of hugs and supportive thoughts your way.

    *HUGS*

    Considering it has almost been 2 weeks since I sent mine, my recipient must be dead or something.

    Either that or she is torturing us for some unknown reason.

    Dragon Medley, have you heard from her yet?

    What are the initials on him?

    Are they MG?

    If so, then I know who made him.

    It’s really nicely done, and it’s an appealing color scheme. Of course it’ll sell.
    Trust me. My first piece on E-Bay sold too. 😉

    Thanks. I am thinking of doing another black one, but in blues and silvers, or even possibly greens…with green eyes, could be neat. Perhaps a green eyed, aqua stone, then blend various colors, just need to make sure I don’t come close to the BEP when I do it.

    Will have to think about that one.

    Huh, as if a PYO painted like that wouldn’t sell. 😆

    What? 😳 I’m not that good…I just threw it up there on a whim. This is my very first eBay auction, until yesterday all I’ve done is buy.

    He’s so pretty. And I see he has a bid on E-Bay. Way to go, Kyrin. 😀

    Thanks…I wasn’t expecting a bid right away, I figured someone would wait until the last minute, but this is cool.

    I hope it goes a little higher, I want to get two more PYOs or a brown hatchling. We’ll just have to wait and see. But even if it doesn’t it is so cool just have it sell at all.

    The black golds have light blue eyes, not the dark blue.

    I think he only looks like a black gold because they both have black and gold (but yours is copper colored, no?) >__> But other than that, your sculpture has too many things different than the b&g. Hopefully there is no issue!

    I like him though 😀

    I am pretty confident there won’t be an issue, that blue is pretty loud.

    Glad you and a few others like him. Someone else does too, he’s only been on eBay for a few hours and someone has already bid… 😯 😯

    Very cool, but I wasn’t expecting anything so fast.

    it’ll be fun to see what he tops out at, I doubt it will go as high as Asinnimons, but that wouldn’t break my heart, more money for more Windstones!

    I am hoping to get enough for two more PYO’s.

    Whoot! John likes him! Well he let him get posted in the Windstone PYO gallery, so he at least doesn’t disapprove of him. Yay! No worries now.

    Anyway, I’m babbling.

    Kyrin

    Ow! The newer released Em Pea has less purple, there is a discussion on it in the Ask Melody section.

    Anyway, he should have been packed better than that! I hope you get a new dragon soon, and sorry he arrived busted.

    in reply to: VENTING AND STRESS- sorry #568529

    Hang in there. Your boss is an insufferable slug, without a drop of humanity. She will get hers.

    Anyway, support your Mom as much as you can handle, visit her as often as you can, and try to build as many happy memories with her while you can. Ask her if there is anything she really wants to do and then help her do it.

    Cancer is a tough one, I just lost my adopted Grandmother to it on Easter saturday, and since she wasn’t a true blood relative I didn’t even get grieving space. But towards the end, we were all very happy for her that she was able to go, she was in a lot of pain and the morphine wasn’t doing a bit of good.

    I pray that your Mom is not in pain right now, and that she is well enough to be able to enjoy being with her family during whatever time she has left. I hope that you will be okay when the time comes, and that she is able to do everything she sets out to do during this period of her life.

    I know this is tough, it is never easy to know that the time you have left is nearing its end. But treasure it and take it one day at a time.

    Meanwhile, get ready for your event and win it. Hang in there and don’t let life break you.

    Oh, and tell that boss that I said she was an insufferable slug on her way out the door as your manager, someone needs to tell her and I think you should have that honor.
