The nice people I 'meet'...


I do enjoy 'working' at home...
but sometimes I do feel quite 'isolated'
and maybe even 'insolated'...
it's way different than interacting with people
everyday at a 9 to 5.

So, the 'next best thing' is to
"make friends"
that I may never actually meet
face to face..
or even chat with over the phone
(but then, I'm not much of a phone person anyway...
I don't even give my phone number out to folks
who might be interested in licensing my art.)

I opted to do away with my 'land-line' and go with my
cell phone...but it seems my phone likes
to cut out when it someone other than family...
so..I just prefer to limit my communication
to email.
I find I don't have to repeat myself as often that way.

Anyway...not to stray too far away from my point...
my kids' say I do that a lot..
I've 'met' a lot of really nice people on Etsy..
through blogs I read..and at other
venues I participate in.

I think one of the best ways to
'get to know' someone
is by reading their blogs...

I have a couple that I would like
to share with you...

Oh my gosh! You're so sweet to include my blog!!! We don't have a land line either, nor am I too much of a phone person. I do like to text (NOT while driving). And, right back at you! I love reading your posts and looking at your art. I visit everyday...I wonder if you saw what I wrote about your art: it's as if you create a magical, mysterious place for the broken and wounded to go and just be-I'm ready for you to come paint my office-lol!

Apparently, I didn't do this right! I misspelled something and tried to delete it and ended up deleting the post!!! Anyway, it was really sweet of you to put me in your blog! And, right back at you! I love to visit your art everyday, it's peaceful. You create a mysterious and magical world for wounded and broken spirits to go and just be...you have a very special perspective that's kind and gentle...

After working the 9 to 5 for so long..and 'playing nice'...even when you didn't feel like it..I have to say that I rather 'enjoy' my self-imposed seclusion.
I get out..'just enough'..to mingle with the masses...otherwise I'm tucked 'safely away in my own little world'.
