Valentine Greetings

My sweet husband came home from work early yesterday bearing a huge bouquet of gorgeous red roses and one white rose tucked in for- purity? (true love?) I'm a little rusty on my flower language. The vase rises majestically above the clutter on my kitchen counter- a metaphor. Midst the domestic clutter in my life there is beauty to be found! Heehee. Okay, that's why I was an artist for Hallmark, not a writer! Here's hoping you get roses from your sweety and paper hearts in the mail today! The antique postcard above is post marked 1908.
The angelic Art Award is from my dear, faithful blog reading, friend Donna (Made in Heaven). Given to her blogging friends who artistically enrich and inspire her daily. Well, she enriches my life daily too. Here's to you, Donna! And in turn I would like to award 3 friends who always creatively inspire me; Beth, Linda, and Laura you are tops! Lori Roberts has been a recent discovery for me and Art Junk Girl, you are a woman after my own trash to treasure heart! I wish I had one of these beautiful awards to mail to each of you in person! A digital post will have to do. In turn Girls, send the love on to 5 others! For those of you not familiar with "borrowing" images ;) right click on the award and save it to your computer, then post on your blog! HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!

Nathalie thank you so much for an award! ME! OMG! I have never gotten one before. I love the saying on your blog about writing. That is oh so true. It made me smile. I would be honored to post the Angelic Award on my blog and name 5 others. How ironic I collect Angels! Do you think they knew? :) Just let me know what to do.
Peace to you my friend!

Hey, Nathalie!
I know, I've been gone a long time. But I think things are falling back into line so I can get back in the saddle! I've actually been thinking of you quite a bit lately and hoping things are good with you.
Posts AND books coming soon!
As always, thanks for your interest and encouragement.
