I too struggle to keep my blog 'pure' as you say but life and creativity are one and the same so its hard to do. You are brave to be honest here and I hope things go well for you and although you'll be letting go of some possessions - I hope you rediscover some gems you'd forgotton you had xAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5327697317325646976.post-91656485703111155802008-04-22T22:21:00.000-07:002008-04-22T22:21:00.000-07:00im so sorry this has happened to you- maybe going ...im so sorry this has happened to you- maybe going home is going to help-our daughter jessy has moved out into a house and she has now got another girl to move in to share the cost's- is this any help to you-but i will say she said she may move back home in oct -so we may have to build inside our shed -and make her a flat- hope all goes well for you-oldflowers4mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08592359569994415619noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5327697317325646976.post-12202398760884815522008-04-22T05:47:00.000-07:002008-04-22T05:47:00.000-07:00In the end, our blogs do show our true personaliti...In the end, our blogs do show our true personalities. <BR/><BR/>I enjoyed the pictures you posted as well as the Weasley and Muggle references.<BR/><BR/>Here's hoping your fresh start will a huge boon to creativity.High Desert Divahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06612606483622054573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5327697317325646976.post-30740504503029752322008-04-21T16:22:00.000-07:002008-04-21T16:22:00.000-07:00Well, wow.

No matter how hard we try to keep it from happening. To me it feels safe because of all the the amazing, kind fellow artist bloggers out there. We are a true community of kindrid spirits and our secrets are somehow safe with one another even though we are on this world wide web. I know you will find relief in your destashing quest. I actually envy you living with your mum for a while. Wish I could live with mine for a while.<BR/>I can't wait to know if you settle on the summer kitchenware or the winter kitchenware :).<BR/>xoxoxoDonna Laytonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03820727040061936221noreply@blogger.com
