The Touring Through Blog Land Tour.....

  I have been tagged by the adorable Lynne at, Dreams on 34th Street-French Bread & Family.  Number one question: What am I working on now.  I am working on getting back into painting with my watercolors. It is something I looked forward to when I retired, then I stopped. I still want to do paintings, so I am taking a class each month. BTW this is me and my daughters.
 The second question: How does my work differ from others in the genre? I am more into the meeting people and enjoying that, than showing crafts and make-overs for my home...although I do these things.
 Number 3 question: Why do I write and or create what I do.?? I just love staying in touch with everyone. So I try to make a blog everyday . At first it was not so many posts. I am still a dinosaur when it comes to technology.  But I just keep plugging along.
This is the number 4 question: How does your writing/creating process make you feel connected to others.??  I feel by blogging as much as everyday or 3-4 times a week...I have friends I am staying in contact with. I have grown to love many of the people I have net through blogging. I have found that we have things in common... our families, our everyday happenings. Because we are people living our lives as best as we can.  We need this human contact of feelings and support.  I think when we pray on our blogs for many out there in dire need of help...we are helping.
   Thank you for visiting today and reading my input.  Hope your day is great. XO

    1. Judy, I want to take those classes, because I only know what a friend showed me , and what I have learned form TV shows on art. I have a ton of art books fro north light....those have helped too. But we know it's lots of practice that really helps. LOL. xoxo,Susie

    1. Patty, I thought once my daughters were raised I'd have all kinds of "Susie" time...not so. I found myself doing more for others and not doing what I wanted. We have to have time for ourselves. xoxo,Susie

  8. I'm with you on number four. I think there is a need for both techies and decorators and those who just share words and thoughts. It's nice to have them all. I enjoy my friends that I have met through blog land.
