As you all have noticed, I am back with membership status.  This is all thanks to a dear dear friend (whom I think most of you know) Jocelyne   She gifted me a 3 month membership.  Is that not the nicest thing EVER!?!  I wanted to do something to thank her and the only thing I could think of is to dedicate a special journal to her.  So, my dear sweet friend, Jocelyne, this is for you...Thank you so much for your kind gift.  I am so lucky to know such a beautiful person.  

Here is the amazing work from and amazing person...

Boo hoo, my membership expires tomorrow.  I'll miss my lovely journal that my dear friend made me.
Perhaps I'll get a membership later on it will be interesting to see if  I will miss it.

Hi Ya'll!

I am so sorry I have not been around lately, life has been serving up craziness and I've I just can't say no.  I pop in now and again, but only to see how far behind I am then I just delete everything because I'm so overwhelmed that I can't force myself to even look.  I hope you all forgive me.  I have missed birthdays and new deviations and all the wonderful notes from you all.  I may be able to catch up starting next week because I'm having surgery on Monday and will be laid up for a while...nothing to do, but be online.  

Anyway, I apologize again and who can tell me how to add pictures to my journal?  Things have changed it seems...grrr...and I was just getting used to the old way.  

Hugs to each one of you!

Oh dear, I swear I just did a journal but when I looked at the date I about threw myself under a rock from embarrassment for not updating my journal sooner.
So, what have you all been doing?  I can't believe that the holidays are upon us.  I always get so stressed this time of year.  I feel I won't get everything done in time...of course it's my own fault for wanting to do so much.  I love to make gifts for people and do a bunch of baking so I can share goodies with my friends and family, but I always bite off more than I can chew and then I am a raving lunatic until January 2nd.  
Ok, I said I was going to do a feature for a contest, but for the life of me I can't remember what contest.  PLEASE (this is cry for help) if I told YOU I would do a feature, please send me a note with a heavy stone in it so it hits me smack in the forehead and I'll get those featured winners in this journal AND please accept my apology for not doing it sooner.  It completely slipped my mind.   <---- AGAIN!

Well, let me tell you in the past what 4 months since my last journal I have found tons and tons of awesomeness here (like that is a surprise, eh?)  I obviously can't share it all with you, but I can give you a little taste of what I have found, then if you are interested you can browse my gallery of favorites to see more...trust me you won't be sorry if you go look, DANG, the people here are TALENTED!!!!!!

Here are some of my newest favorites, ENJOY!!!

So again, please let me know if YOU are the person I said I'd feature the winners of "the contest" for...I WANT to do that!!!!  
Until the next time we meet...CHEERS!
