CHEERS!


well my BIG news is i was was asked to do a guest post on Shutter Sisters by the wonderful Tracey.  what an honor to me.  i of course immediately said YESSSSS!  i knew just the topic, the sisterhood, the friendships, the real connections made,  but then panic set in, i am not a writer, oh no.  then the rain set in, how can i take "the" picture without sun?!?!  double oh no!!!  i wanted it to all be just right, to truly honor all of us for you are so special to me.  thankfully the sun shone, even if just for a bit, and  all worked out.  so this is all for,  and all possible, because of my ladies.  you are loved and appreciated and admired each and every day.  thank you.  i feel you draw who you need into you life, it was all meant to be this way.   and the wonder of it all is i get to know new people each day and the circle grows.

  CHEERS!  and much LOVE!

Great post! I remember being shocked and happily surprised by all the real friendships that were created once I took the jump into my online community of knitters/spinners. Glad you have found similar with SS!

You did brilliantly, and as a sister-I am going to be honest with you, and tell you that you should always and forever abandon saying 'I am not a writer'

It was the perfect post, and just at the right time for me as well!
