Lemonade for Sale – 50¢
Oy… I’m no good at being sad.
Actually, having written that maybe it’s that I’m really good at being sad in away, almost too good. My feelings and conscious are so sensitive, that I absorb a lot and am really hard on myself. I’m just no good at it because I’m just such a naturally happy and positive person… but I guess that’s a good thing.
I dunno, I just have a lot on my mind, but I know it’s not the end of the world. And since I’d rather not go more into what it is that’s going on…. I’m going to just tell you some things that are making me smile today.
#1 is all the love and support and TLC I get. The comments a few of you posted are totally like a warm hug. Honestly even though I’ve never even met some of you – it’s just so nice to connect with other humans out there that can relate that life is so frickin tough sometimes. We all have our battles. And I am a firm believer in having a positive attitude… but sometimes it can be really hard to put any sunshine on the quagmire. Anyway.. thank you for all your good vibes – keep em comin! Right now it feels like luck and chance are the only saving grace… so let’s tip the scales with our positive thoughts!!
#2 is being so thankful for these 2 women I have bi-monthly business chats with. Having them there to talk about my business and my artistic goals is like a good syrup on a stack of warm pancakes!! (work with me on that one, I just felt like writing it, so I did – so there!!) But truly – it’s inspiring and wonderful and supportive and it never fails I get off the phone just so happy to have 2 others to consult with on challenges and hear their advice, etc. Big X’s & O’s to Robin & Beth.
#3 – I have HUGE exciting news. News that is really really huge and something we’ve all been talkin about on here for a couple weeks now… are you ready?
This puppy is arriving on my doorstep soon:
I’m FREAKING OUT!!! Talk about a little retail therapy… when it feels like the world is coming to an end & you’re beside yourself with grief and stress… Buy yourself something fantastic!
I’m taking the leap and going mac. I can’t believe it. (GULP)
p.s. A HUGE HUGE HUGE thanks to the darling person who scored me a discount on this. I am sooo grateful to have saved a teeny bit of money on such an expensive purchase. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!! And Kazoo (your little buddy) thanks you, too. He’ll be so excited to play in the box it comes in! :p

Puppies are cute.
hey willo–i’ve been reading for a while, and you usually brighten my day with your cheerfulness. i hope things start to look up for you.
Hello Willo,
You asked for suggestions on the different types of bags for your new laptop – so here goes mine. I noticed that you have a link to Tom Binh. That is the site where I got my laptop carrier from. I bought the Monolith in Sapphire and the Smart Alec in Charcoal. The reason for the Monolith is because it protects my Baby (that’s what I named my Apple) against what they call “vertical drops”. I carry it like a briefcase and it has already saved my Baby a few times, like when it slid off of the top of my car (I was like, OMG I’m was gonna die – but nothing happened to it). The Monolith fits really nice inside of the Smart Alec and there’s lots of room for everything else. And a really big plus is that no one else has anything that looks like it. It’s really unique! Oh well, that’s just my 2 cents worth.
P.S. I think your Fotki photo site is great – so many pictures! AND you have a Mr. PotatoHead!!! I HAD to leave a comment about that – lol!!!
Hugs,
Patty
I bought a kick ass TUMI bag for my laptop. Stylish, designed well, and VERY good for travel. Although it ain’t cheap.
I wish I could name a link to some shtripey laptop bag, but I can’t :( But who knows…
So you’re ging mac, hee. I know you’ll be writing up on that, I stay tooned :)
Oh, you have coaches – I wish I had a good coach. Just to synchronize everything and get ahead!!
