As for being a left handed, I must say I'm one as well and I always wore my watch on my left wrist so I'll have to disagree with your above statement!

:

Thanks Carl! and who knew there were so many lefty's in the Coffeeshop!

With all this creativity flying around, it's not such a big surprise!

But is it ever really winter for you?

Hope your day is great!

Lion · 5 December 2012, 11:07 PM

dbelle7, I'm sorry your beautiful watch is giving you trouble...as that is one fine watch you have and can see why it's a favorite one to wear. I'm not sure where you live but if it's by or in a major city there must be someone who can look at that watch band and fix it without sending it out.....

Wes, your playing is wonderful as always and please keep them coming.....as it brings a smile and warmth to my heart in this year as I struggle with RA. And I will be taking a break from here as it's to painful to continue at the present for me to sit and read and post.....you have a wonderful personality and I would love someday for us to get together for a meal and talk.....

I love that fact that we have a lot of lefties here....as they are always special individuals with talents that never cease to amaze me. I do believe though that everyone is gifted with talent and it's just a matter of everyone figuring it out and learning how to use theirs.......my Dad was a lefty(and rated a genius skipping a grade in elementary school) and in his day they were forced to convert and become a righty(in school and life)which of course has an affect/effect on a person's personality and self-esteem. I happen to be ambidextrous and do most everything with both hands and some things I can do naturally left-handed that I can not do as a righty.....since my flare-up this past Spring, I have been doing most everything left-handed but it's still a struggle dealing with the pain

Carl, continue your studies and learn your craft because it will be a skill so precious in our world today where everything is planned obsolescence and people do not have(and will not make time for)the patience to appreciate and understand.........the finer things in life. You have a great sense of humor and even tho commuting can be a hassle....years from now you will look back with a smile.....

Bill, I know you are not thrilled right now at your job and maybe it's time to start looking or after the holidays.....but you have a gifted son and beautiful wife and it must be fun for you to come home after a long day to your family who loves you and your puppy with her tail wagging.....alway ready to give you unconditional love.......

Lisa(were you naughty or nice?), enjoy the Holiday with Dave and the girls and I know it must be fun on Christmas morning when they wake up early with excitement in their eyes begging you and Dave to quickly come to the living room so they can see what Santa has brought them.....I remember those days fondly with Pam and Ben and I loved going out and finding the 'perfect tree' to bring home and set up and string those traditional large bulbs(C-7's I believe)on the tree.....I can still smell the fresh-cut tree if I close my eyes and believe.....

Michelle, your gifts and Christmas cards are amazing and look forward to receiving one this year.....your voice(and heart) is bright and cheerful everyday and you bring an energy to this forum and touch our lives with your heart and soul.....let me know if I can be of assistance in fixing up your front yard with a garden which will bring you pleasure, peace and serenity.....

Art, you are a character...indeed.....so keep us posted on the temperatures you must struggle with...as I know we all feel sorry for you. Please continue to share with us the world of art and your adventures in the sunshine state of Florida...........and above all else...do what it takes to bring happiness to your world.......

Take it easy.....peace.....Leo

Yeah, well, I don't feel one bit sorry for Art.

Dave and Christmas morning? Hmmm... for as long as I can remember since having kids, he's usually still asleep well into the gift-opening festivities!

Nop, I'm a rightly. Guess you guys are referring to lefties being more creative.

Well was looking up this, and it does say "Left-handers are generally more intelligent, better looking, imaginative and multi-talented than right handers"

Generally being the important word here people.

I glad we have you lot to prove the exception to the rule.

Thank you Leo for these incredibly kind words. I really hope your RA calms down a bit, I know you say winter is worst. Even if you are not posting much, hope you can continue to read what we get up to, and we will be thinking of you. And I hope to post up some more vids.

LOVED it Wes!!
Thanks for doing such a great job with the cards; Your music has a jazzy, festive vibe to it- LOVE it!!

You might of noticed faint curved lines in the middle of some of the pics, just think this is a reflection from the window or camera lens. I haven't been using them as tea coasters.

Don't worry I will be sending them out to friends/family now.

Well, I've got my newest cards back from the printer- so coffeeshoppers, any one who would like one sent- pm me

You know, Wes...if you "mac tacked" those cards...you could use them as coasters!

Art 1 · 6 December 2012, 06:59 AM

Leo, you brighten my day with your optimism.

I want one. Please.

Ok will mac attack them, or look into whatever that is.

chicfarmer1 · 6 December 2012, 07:14 AM

Loved the cards and piano vid. Well done you guys! I do love this season, although we don't celebrate Christmas...I've always loved the music and decorations and etc. It can bring out lovely things in people, forgetting the unlovely things.

Michelle, your artwork is just terrific. Are you trained or is this solely from hobby?

I'm just now feeling better after an awful bout of crud (I was with you, Wes)...had to resort to antibiotics. Boy, the world looks better when you can finally put down the tissues!

J, so glad you are feeling better.

chicfarmer1 · 6 December 2012, 07:22 AM

It was pretty Deathly Hallows around here, I'm not usually slammed. I did manage to do online holiday shoppin, though. Peppermint bark from Williams-Sonoma to some lucky people or other, and so on. It seemed like a good year to invest in chocolate things.

Lisa · 6 December 2012, 07:51 AM

Traveling is hard on a body, I think.

Online shopping is so convenient! I don't know how I ever did it the old way.

Making turkey soup with egg noodles tonight. Will send some your way, J.

chicfarmer1 · 6 December 2012, 08:01 AM

OHmy, that sounds so perfect, L. Thank you, thank you!

I'm sorry to read about your sickness Jay but I'm glad you are feeling better!

I don't know if this will help you (or make anybody feel good) but clearly somebody baked something in my apartment block as it smells like muffins or cake! Whoever it is, he or she did well as it smell pretty darn good!
