Phew! She made it through the cull, I am pleased to say. Not that there was any real doubt in my mind about it. But when you are in a simplifying, clutter-clearing, do-I-really-really-need-this frame of mind, you can never be quite sure what will happen next. So thank-you to Cheri for a suggestion to add to my list of useful questions (see Wednesday this week) when examining each item coming in or out of our craft-spaces, houses, lives. (I'd like to add the other ideas too, with the authors' permissions, and post them as a pdf, so I will be contacting you all). Cheri's prompt read: "Does seeing you make me happy, bring a smile to my face, or make me tingle with joy?"
Well, Gladys does all three. Just over two feet high, cast in bronze, she has character too. Orginally, I was just going to post a little photo, but I felt she deserved more than that. So here is Gladys, honoured on a whole scrapbook page. I hope you like her too.
Right, back to tackling those myriad piles of books ... It would be quicker if I didn't stop to browse ones I haven't seen for years. Still, out of one jumped this quote by a Ms. Patricia Schroeder which is right on the button for my thinking this week: "I have always preferred having wings to having things".
See you next week?
