I'm still rising, and still no comments. I'm just glad it broke 5, I really didn't believe it was sub-5 worthy.

oh, I guess we'd better pick a team. Which team has been most awol on the challenges lately?

Ack, I haven't been replaced this quickly since that time I got dumped by a girl I was dating in college! Or were you just calling the wrong name (ie not

meyers), which has also happened..

Anyone else need to be added to a team?

Interesting tidbit of information...I actually got the 2nd highest number of views during the challenge..440. Blue Ribbon winner was the highest @ 465. Puzzles me.

And Jeffrey beat me by a lizards nostril :)

Hey!

Let me put ths in context. I've liked this immensely since the first time I read it.

Shez's - Quote for life; "Today is the best day of your life, enjoy, and make the most of it".....

Let me add another spin to this as well.....a little more brutal and basic, but with this as a premise, it's all upside from here.

Another day above Ground? It's ALL good!

I also keep my eyes and ears open all the time and invariably, I can find someone that's more in need of understanding and compassion than I.......so it helps me to think good thoughts for them, and I worry less about my own lot.

Shez, you help me on a regular basis to remember that I have it pretty good.

Your faith, strength, and ability to bounce back again and again in the face of some serious odds are a total inspiration to me.

Hang in there, dear Shez!

Jeb, thank you for your kind words, and you actually made me cry.....(good tears, that touched my heart)

I often read my quote for life, when I not feeling the best, or down a little like I have been lately, when things just get to hard.
I them pinch myself, or get annoyed with myself, as there are so many people, good honest people, who are so much worse than I.

This is when I seem to turn my life around, and climb back into a better frame of mind, and cope with life difficulties, that we all have to face.

I am really no differant to anyone else, even you Jeb, but I really do appriciate your kind words. Your kind words have touched me deeply, and warmed me inside.

You are such a good person..... Thanks Jeb.....

Well, it looks like my daughter and I have a semi-permanent thing going on for the gallery where I have my framing done and some work exhibited. Here's an ad for the Christmas season that I just finished up. I'm having a lot of fun with this, and I guess I should put these ads in my resume/portfolio.....thoughts?

It is not I who is confused
But Raish, the Artist

I am all sorts of honoured - an ting. Kudos - thanks.

Ah! Finally. Cheers and enjoy it while you can, Charlene. I hate to think how long it'll be before the next one comes and what we might have to do to get it.

I keep topping up my holiday snaps, lest anyone should wish to peruse...

Here are three shots in dubious lighting conditions of a limestone wall after centuries of wind and weather (and the occasional bomb)...

I dunno what aweful thing you mean but thanks for the support but I am still pouting HUGE that I misunderstood the deadline ... I took the shot two days ago and had plenty of time to process it but did not because I still had a whole day ... I THOUGHT! ... bleh

Seeing that no one is jumping to claim Charlene, can we please have her on team Minus?
