WOW!! I have some great news today, first when I looked at my blog before getting on here to post, I saw I had two followers, Chris from http://prismtrail.blogspot.com/ and Suzan Buckner from http://thriftycollageartist.blogspot.com/. I am so excited. Thanx, ladies.
My next great news is in a short story: Last August I was enrolled in a class for work and I traveled to Riverside, CA for a week. On the same Friday of that week Teesha Moore was having a journal class beginning in Washington State. I wanted to go to that class soooo bad and work had gotten in the way, that I actually ALMOST booked a flight from Riverside to Washington that Friday and not come home. BUT I had to be at the journal class at 5:00pm that Friday and I didn't get out of my Supervisor class until 5:00pm, so of course I could not go. Teesha and I spoke by email and she said no way I could do that but she would always have another one, so of course I saw on her blog that she would have one again in Washington in May 09 and we could register in January. So today she posted that, that journal class will not be in Washington this year but in San Jose, CA only 100 miles from me!!!! So I am hoping to get registered soon and Oh Yea, I will be there this year, even though my husband wanted to go on a cruise that week, cause he is on vacation, but I have been on 3 cruises and have never had a chance to attend a Teesha Moore Journal Class, so guess which one I chose???? He had never made the reservations for the cruise yet anyway. Happy dance!!!
Now, my last bit of great news. I bought a Bind-It-All Machine. I want to make journals out of old books and use the book covers for the covers of the journals and fill them with found papers and of course some pages out of the books. Cool. I bought some like that recently at a Handborn art walk here and said, hey I can do that. I will post a pic of the binding machine as soon as I get the chance. Whew, this was a long post, but all good news. Goodnight!
