When this group sees something shiny, we tear off after it - and that occurs, oh, every 17 minutes.  Cheesy
17 minutes is a long time.

True.
True.

Guess it's more like.... oh look , purple bubble wrap!  Cheesy

No, there's blue and purple streaked bubble wrap....

Ooh, can we decorate it with zombie bunnies? I wuz thinkin' embroidered, or appliqued--but maybe just duck-taped would do it, if they'd hold still long enough...

We can stick on pieces of a fruit roll-up to his mumu - that should occupy 'em long enough to get the duck tape on.

She can run.

They like it better when the blood warms up.

Niiice.

Guess we'll just have to wait and see who's faster.

Has anyone seen her around, speaking of who runs faster?

She hasn't posted in a while...

She has posted on FB  in the last few days. So...I guess she's either busy writing, or busy running...

You know, Beth this is very funny timing! I was thinking the exact same thing just the other day was was wondering where I should post.

On a similar train of thought I was thinking how often writer's don't realize that they have expertise in area and careers child and adults want to know and learn more about. Has anyone here ever thought to look for our fellow WR members for interviews and quotes?

I know we got equestrains, horse breeders and trainers, accountants, teachers, special education teachers...I know there are tons more but I'm a little frazzled tonight. I know career profiles/snap shots and interviews can be a big sell in certain markets. Just thought I'd mention it! We could all help each other. Smiley

Destiny

That is a good idea, Destiny.

We do have quite the melting pot here.

I must agree. Anyone given any of these ideas a shot while I been absent?

I don't think so, Destiny.

How is the little one? How are you doing?


Well I can see things haven't changed and the people are still great (and unique) Cheesy

The little man is 10 months in 2 days! It's crazy that a year has nearly come and gone. I have been a bit rough and stressed. Been working full time and was sent through a five month long course for my job while working full time. So things have been crazy. Will give a better update soon. How have you been, Shauna?

LOL!

Been very busy lately, Destiny. I haven't had much time for writing, which bums me a bit, but the family is healthy and I can't really complain - the Lord has blessed me in ways that I'm still discovering. Life is good.

10 months? They grow like weeds, they do. I hope your days slow down and return to "normal" soon.  Wink

Hi Destiny! Oh my gosh, I can't believe it's been 10 months already for lil Gabriel. Shocked

Beth, I LOVE your original post. Thanks a lot for sharing that. I saw the topic title "Don't look too far" under Idea Sparkers and immediately thought, "Brilliant!"

And I love the comments on 17 minutes. Had to quote Ellen on FB. Grin
