Bonsie-

I am so thrilled and proud of you! What a life you have fashioned for yourself now!

Love to you,

Changing

Thanks, Changing!  I keep trying to keep putting one foot in front of the other, just for today.

That's the way, I think, dear Bones... doing the next thing.

The stained glass guild sounds wonderful! I always linger at the display of "sun-catchers" in the gift shops... the old Amish design with the doves is one of my favorites.
Working with mosaic tiles I always thought would be fun, as well... to make a small table top or birdbath bowl, all inlaid with those colorful bits and pieces.
Enjoy!

Hope

Another thing that I decided to do, after debating with myself for 2 and a half years about it, was donate my hair to Locks of Love.  It's going to take me awhile to adjust to the shorter hair length now.

Wow, Bones!

In addition to all your great changes and great comments, I think you must have won some kind of prize for most posts and views here (at last count, 780 posts!!! and more than 14,000 views)

Well, how cool is that?  Nothing voiceless about that!

Stay well and best wishes for continued healing.

Bonesy-

Just when I think that I could not respect someone more, you do something else- your Locks of Love donation is kind and just the sort of thing that you would think of. You have so much good karma going for you- you truly deserve the wonderful new job and new life...

Love,

Changing

Even though it's still feels outside of my comfort zone, it's going to take a while to get used to it.  I had not cut my hair in over 20 years so it feels VERY strange right now!

Bones, I bet it's beautiful.

What amazing color and consistency of hair is some fortunate person at Locks of Love going to have, because of your kindness?

The texture is baby-fine and the color is dark blonde with a few flecks of silver in it.  I hope it is acceptable to Locks of Love.

Hi Bonesy-

Whoever receives your Locks will be fortunate indeed. Wonderful! Did you get a classic bob, like Posh Spice, or a gamine-type style? Does it express the new Bonesy?

Love,

Changing

Thanks, Changing!

My hair length is now just below my shoulders.  If I had it cut any shorter it would have been flying everywhere with a mind of its own instead of staying where I need for it to stay.

That is so kind of you, Bones. You sound wonderful and it is always nice to hear from you. I bet your hair will be quite long again soon. How long was it after 20 years of growth???? Are you really Crystal Gale???

 :lol:  Thanks, Beth!  My hair was hip length before I cut it.  It'll probably get that long again before I know it.  Crystal Gale, I'm not.   :D

Hi Bones,

The hair. What a wonderful gift.  Was it hard on the psyche to cut it?  I so appreciate your contribution to the board.   I hope all is flowing smoothly for you in your new job.
