I like it! Love the colors and how you make them work. Personally, I like the MUSE–there are a lot of possibilities! 🙂
I’ve been following this thread since it started–was really curious as to what other forum members would say. Well, everyone said everything just beautifully. I’m in my late fifties and was married to my husband for a little over 25 years until his death 9 years ago. If he were still alive, we would be still married and this August, it would have been 35 years! Yes, time gets away from you and at age 23, you have a whole lifetime ahead of you. I met my husband when I was 20 and we married a year and a half later so age isn’t the factor in determining how well and how long a realtionship lasts. It’s the maturity level of the people involved.
One thing I’ve always heard about what is the problem with men and women is that men want to control and women want to change. So just accept each other for who you are. This person will be your better half your soul mate throughout your life. You will begin to eat, sleep, breathe and think alike. You know how older folks finish each other’s sentences. My husband always supported all the things I wanted to do and I never held him back to what he wanted to do either. Yeah, we all have our ‘ideals’ of what we would like our future mate to have–the tall, dark and handsome bit–we like to fantasize–but reality has a sense of humor and you may find that the right person for you is completely the opposite of all those physical attribultes you want him to have. Oh, and time takes an awful toll on those physical attributes–believe me!
All the advice you have been given has been excellent–communicate, wait, marriage is a job and it requires work, there is more to it than the bedroom! Twindragonsmum is right–sometimes it is 60/40, 95/5, 20/80 or whatever–you do what it takes to get you over the bumps and potholes in life. My husband was ill for the remaining 11 years of our marriage. It’s a hard pill to shallow but this is what it is all about–you don’t just drop out because the going gets tough. You have to be able to trust each other with your very lives!
So don’t go feeling unnormal because everyone else your age is married! Don’t stab yourself with many pains trying to get married so you’ll be alike everyone else! You’ll know when that right one comes around and it does come slowly–smoldering embers last longer than a raging bonfire!
You don’t realize how much time you have! Finding someone who shares your ideals and dreams is the most important thing. Whatever will be will follow. After all these years I still miss my husband–you won’t understand this completely, but that is the best feeling in the world!
Oh to have vision! :scratch: I have an idea of the colors my swapee likes and so I’m trying to work them in. I’m at that so-so stage–like what now :shrug: . I’ll work on it more this weekend–stare at it and cross my eyes and maybe something good will happen. 😳
Griffins of any color are fine with me. Don’t have the beagle griffins so could add them to my collection! 😀
I’ll take the pink Poad–if you don’t want it Adaneth, you are welcome to send it my way! 😀
I squeek* and you squeek* we all squeek* for more Poads! 😀 😀

Done did! I squeek* and you squeek* we all squeek* for more Poads!
squeek* squeek* PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! That blue Poad is absolutely goregous! Could we have more–like in a Limited Production so the rest of us poor folk can get one! I’m totallying with drag0n! PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE! squeek* squeek* PLEASE, PLEASE squeek* squeek*
You and me both, drag0n. I saved pictures of the Poad because that’s the only way I’ll get to enjoy it! Over $500 and 2 days to go–no way–it’s pretty but that is a lot of money! I wish they could start painting some of these as production pieces so the rest of us could afford and get one! [sigh]
I’ve started mine and I’m learning not to panic! Little by little and it’s starting to look like something! So maybe the person I’m painting for won’t hate me after all! 😆
Cool! Thanks for letting us know–I’m the type who is pretty much ‘under a rock’ when it comes to this sort of thing. I liked Alice in Wonderland as a kid–I loved being in a fantasy world and Alice was it for me! I loved the cat–‘I’m mad, you’re mad–we’re all mad here!’ Yeah, short story of my life! 😆 😈 Don’t get out to the movies much, but might brave it and venture out on this one!
Well the bird is in the right hands and you did what you could. Glad it made it through the night and hope the zoo lets you know what happened to him! Thanks for sharing! 🙂
