hi anna,
thank you so much. i need to write it down every once in a while, just so i can appreciate it from different angles. it's easy for me to get a little too caught up in what i don't do. better to appreciate what i do do.
have a beautiful evening,tifanie *

love this! I'm doing one tomorrow. xo
Oh I love all the things you are.
Those tattoos have me swooning!!! I don't have any. Too chicken, but yours are incredible. xoxo

hi gillian,
thank you dear, beautiful woman. i just read your list and it's remarkable. so glad you were inspired to make one too. i love all the lovely things YOU are.
tattoos... i grew up around so many tattoos, it was rather inevitable, and i love them to pieces, but i totally understand why you might not want to dive into one. they do hurt, after all. and they're permanent, for the most part. my husband has not a splotch of ink on him and he's been playing in the music industry around many tattooed people for, oh.. gosh. years and years. you'd think he'd have come to the dark(ened skin) side by now, but no. clean as ever. he has no desire to put himself through that pain - haha. thank you so much, for your lovely compliments about my tattoos.
have a lovely evening,tifanie

hi, tifanie!
i've been in a bit of a funk recently, been wanting to get back into photography & writing & just... creative projects. & reading your blog & looking at all of your lovely photos has given me the kick in the pants that i needed to get back into things. so, thank you, so much, for that.
also, i'm one half of the dynamic duo over at Kind Over Matter & i wanted to say... maybe you should check out the blog at around... 4 p.m. there may be a post with some noddyboom love going on.
just sayin'. hahaha
(oh! i'm jennaflee on flickr, i added you yesterday.)
peace to you.

hi jenn,
i can completely relate to your "funk". i go in and out of that and struggle with time management issues and the fact that it's impossible to accomplish everything i wish i could accomplish. but i trudge forward nonetheless. my blog helps me keep track of the things i do do, so i don't get lost in what i don't do. i'm so glad i've inspired you to get back into photography and writing. i think those two things are just magical. my new hope is to one day write a novel. it's a fun and long, grueling (for me) process. but fun and i'm just tackling it in stages - as everything should be tackled, i suppose. i'd love for you to join our little haiku group, if you would like. check it out (sidebar). haiku is a fun little way to get into writing without having to write too much (plus, it's rather addicting, writing haiku). and the photos are fun too. it would be so nice to have you. i hope you'll join us.
ijustcheckedoutyourblog,btw.i'msohappytofindit!whataninspirationalplaceyouhavecreated.i'mhonoredthati'llbeontheresomewhere. thank you so much!
thank you for your lovely comment and for stopping by.

ehhhh i'm trying to do that with my blog [papersandprayers.blogspot.com] & i just started a new project this weekend, i'm going to document the abc's of my life. i'm hopeful that posting the photos will help keep me going with it, i'm working on the letter b right now! =)
the thing is is that i love photography, i do, but then the funk happened & i started doing other crafty things instead, like making collages. i think that not focusing on photography at all made me miss it & now i'm stoked to get back to it.
eeee, a novel, how exciting! that's so cool! good luck with it, will you be blogging about how it's going?
& i am completely going to join the group! saturday's going to be my photo adventure day & i'm hoping 1) for some pretty photos & 2) some photos that would lend themselves to haiku. so excited, yaaay!
& thank you so much for the pretty words for KOM & for sharing our post with the crew over here, that was so nice of you!
peace to you,
jenn
