I have currently used up "100% of your 1 GB quota for photos". So, if I want to post with photos-- and a post without photos is not my style-- I can buy more space. </div>

or, I could probably start a new blog.</div>
<div class="luna-Ent">
I suppose I could delete my older posts to make more room..... Has anyone saved their blog somehow prior to doing such a thing? <br />

There was an abandoned house kitty corner across the road from my grandparents farm </div>
<div align="center">
when I was small. I remember going inside with my twin aunts. How cool were they to </div>
<div align="center">
let a 10 or so year old tag along? I remember there were still old</div>
<div align="center">
dishes in the kitchen, not in usable condition, but still they were sitting</div>
<div align="center">
there, on the table and the counter top. There was a very old faded</div>
<div align="center">
print on the wall above the table too. Or am I imagining that I remember that?</div>
<div align="center">
We didn't touch anything, or rescue any of the dishes or the picture. </div>
<div align="center">
We just quietly went back to grandmas. </div>

Jes and her gramma Jan, the big guys momma.</div>
<div align="center">
She had to represent all the grandparents since grampa Bob is gone, and my parents aren't able to travel at all. We missed my father in law especially, he would have had the perfect thing to say on this special day. But, he was certainly there in spirit, a few raindrops before the wedding, then it cleared up beautifully then some incredible thunder (his favorite) as the reception started, then clear skies again all night. Thanks dad Green.</div>

My brother and Lu were married 10 years ago, and I got the idea to make some blocks for guests at the wedding to sign. I was pretty busy stitching away and I wanted there to be plenty of them.</div>
<div align="center">
<br /></div>
<div align="center">
they had a lovely ceremony in a park in Eau Claire, followed by a picnic reception. We all did pies for the dessert instead of wedding cake. It was awesome!</div>

And here is one of several table runners she made for her kids and their families. </div>

You can never go wrong with hand prints can you? It will be so fun for the kids to match up their growing hands in a few years and be amazed at how little they once were.</div>

What fun stuff, it all inspires me to get going in my sewing room!</div>

She is one of the few teenage girls I know who will run after them in order to hold them or find them a better home.</div>

Last weekend when I was moving the lawn I spotted this little guy trying to get away from my loud machine. I knew miss V would want to see him and put him somewhere safe so I captured him and called her out. (it could be noted here that I had on gardening gloves becuase I am not as fond of the "feel" of toads as Miss V is.</div>

So here is my dilemma my friends. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made it through my first year back at school and now I don't know what to do! I did fine for an old person. The yung-uns were pretty decent about having me take up space, not that they had a choice. They were even pretty amazed that someone of my advanced years could still operate a mechanical pencil. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I got 2 B's in my French classes, and an A in my geography class so grades aren't my issue. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
My issue is this, is there a place for me ANYWHERE???</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I am well on my way to my degree even with the 30 year hiatus for such things as life and other nonsense. Now, at present I'm at a university center, which does Associates degrees, which is handy since I need to fulfill my sciences and math before I can really finish. However I looked at a local private college for the actual finishing of my degree, and that is just not going to work. Expense, yes, but that can be dealt with if I am willing, and I am, to take it one class at a time. Worse, the art department is disappointingly small and unequipped. I can't picture myself getting my "real degree" there. But the most disappointing and disheartening part..............</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
the question I seem to have to answer over and over for EVERYONE - EVERYWHERE: </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
"What are you going to do with your degree?"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Do I have to DO something with it? Is that what this has to be about? Am I totally and completely nuts to finish it because I want to finish it? I'm not looking for a new career, I've had enough of those thank you very much. I am realistic enough to know that my dream job would never happen, especially since it seem to change with every step I take. So, be honest here friends, am I totally crazy? I say totally because I know what the answer is to "am I partly crazy?, or am I a wee bit off my rocker? or my personal favorite, is Mare a chucklehead?"</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Does anyone think there is a school that will help me in this endeavor? Any advisor out there who will say, "sure, lets get your degree going and not worry one whit where it takes you!" Of course, come to think of it, that's sort of where my mind was at 30 years ago when I blithely declared my art major with no clue what I would be when I grew up. Gosh, some things never change do they? I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up. </div>Greenmarehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11594247068214735876noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3128505594153410556.post-26665497702535288842012-05-07T19:21:00.003-07:002012-05-07T19:21:38.077-07:00one word....
