Here’s my pretty that just came
He seems simple but elegant. Thanks to a forum member who helped me snag him–helps to have friends. Of course, he’s riddled with special paint!
I’m looking at these pictures and they don’t do him justice–I couldn’t get my camera to cooperate with me today. Then I had trouble with my host site–but you get the idea.
Oh, Hannah, you can use these pictures–they aren’t good ones but maybe I could take more later and e-mail them to you.
I just got my invoice yesterday fairly late, even accounting for the time difference, so I think she’s going down the list as fast as she can…
That makes me feel better 🙂 I’m super excited, but I know money must come first!
I just got my invoice–Susie will get it to you. I’m sure they’re working especially hard to get these orders processed, shipped, invoiced….it will happen. I feel the staff at Windstone are doing a great job!
OMG!!!!! Your year isn’t starting out great–I’m so sorry about all the things that happened! I hope you can get things cleaned up soon but what a bummer! When it rains, it pours and it certainly has poured down on you!
Missed them as well–wasn’t even on my computer last night. Oh well, ya snooze ya looze! They’ll be more.
Welcome and don’t worry–you’ll fit right in–you love Windstones right? then you’ll fit right in! I’m not much of an artist but I have painted pyos in acrylics and like others have said–use your imagination–that’s why Melody sculpted the pyos for us to do just that. I think that’s great of an artist to create something to unlease the creative genuis in all of us.
Yeah, all of us say more than we should and this forum probably knows more about me than people closest to me. We encourage one another and no vent is too small–we give encouragement to all.
Hope when you get that pyo and paint it, you’ll share pictures of it with us.
Thanks everyone for all your encouraging comments. I’ve been on a roll for these past two years studying, stressing and doing all I can to become employable again and I just hit a brick wall–wasn’t in my plans, but you know what happens to plans.
Skigod, the certificate I studied for and got was in Medical Assistant and it took me two years because I learned both the adminstrative and clinical skills and went through a local junion college. Couldn’t afford to take out a loan for a private one which would have gotten me out faster but then I would be owing this money and no job eeeek!
I just got bummed out–was on this incredible high and then the bottom dropped out. Some of my other classmates are in the same boat–still looking for jobs. I still have my applications in where I interned and one of them only wants someone there on Mondays to assist with minor surgery–I can do that. I did learn some new skills as well as a new language. I can take your vitals, give you an injection, draw your blood, prep you for minor surgery and all around can make you feel great! Both doctors and patients have complimented me about my bedside manner–said this position is right for me–but still no job.
I do feel much better now that I had time to think things over. I consider myself very fortunate to come of age where I would become eligible for this pension. I now have a steady income and am not as stressed about finances like I was. I’m now going through my house and getting rid of a bunch of stuff I no longer need and getting together with friends I haven’t associated with because of my homework and schedule. I do look forward to learning stuff just for me–I’m currently taking Shinkendo–a martial arts that trains you how to use a Samurai sword. I also want to learn how to paint.
In time I do see myself working part-time–maybe the 40-hour thing just isn’t for me any more–things do happen for a reason. But now I can be on here more and catch up with what’s happening with the forum members and offer encouragement to those who need it.
So thanks again–the old lady will survive!
You are so very welcome and glad to see that things are starting to look better! That’s good news for you and for us! I can’t imagine my world without GB baby unis and Poadettes in crazy colors!
Uh, when was the world supposed to end according to that Mayan calendar? I forgot–like did it end already? S&@#! I’m not prepared–hate crap like this–damn world gonna end and I haven’t done sqat! I do have a Brita filter thingie–at least I’ll have water. Really, what date was the world suppose to end? Gueeeze, you’d think that now I’m retired, I’d be up on this stuff. Just my luck as well–retire and the world ends–totally sucks–really, really peeeees me! My life is suppose to get better here and the world ends–just like that! Oh well, at least I went out without too many worries.
I do feel for you, TDM. You’ve been through some very rough waters and not having your boys with you right now really hurts. All the advice I’ve seen is right on. We’ve all felt lonely and bored–I get that feeling a lot myself. There are times that I do wish that I had someone in my life to take the edge off.
What I’ve done was take myself out to lunch–it doesn’t have to be expensive–just sitting there amongst other people helps and keeps my mind off my being alone. I’ve even taken myself to see a movie–yeah, listen to music, read a good book–something that you’ve wanted to do.
Yes, time does heal all wounds but we still feel the hurt every now and then. It does get easier with time. Wishing you the very best this season and that things will get better.
Sorry to hear about all your troubles and the troubles your fur babies are having. So hard to take care of them and work–you worry but you have no choice. I certainly do hope things start to get better for you. I don’t see a lot of people I used to see on this forum and I guess that they’re battling their own woes. Sending warm thoughts your way..
Thank you so much for sharing! I enjoyed that–so sweet. Maybe we could get Melody to sculpt some butterfly dragons!!! Or–Jennifer could paint one!
