I peeked into my exercise book, and the exercises look a bit daunting!

I will keep you informed, of course...:hug:

[Miss Marmelstein]

10. Harrah!!!!!

Good luck to you...Mazel tov...and all that! :hug:


And remember....no texting your BFF during lectures!

:bounce: :bounce:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

14. My dear Miss Marmelstein!

Texting? What's that? Honestly, I don't have any electronics that I can do that on!

Sweetie....

Tell me....are you in the path of the fires in Greece?

Or are you home, and safe from danger?

I was honestly thinking about you today.....:scared:


Thanks for your good thoughts! :hug:

[KitchenWitch]

17. Actually you do!

You can text on your cellphone.

[CaliforniaPeggy]

18. Oh, silly me!

I've never tried to do that!

Well, maybe one day I'll try it........but not tomorrow!

:hi:

[KitchenWitch]

21. I swear that is my SIL's preferred mode of communication

"Don't call me, just text me!"

By the way, texting costs extra.

[Miss Marmelstein]

30. Thank you for your thoughts CalPeg.......

we are in Barcelona this week...our island wasn't in any danger, thankfully.

It was horrible to hear about the death and destruction the fires have caused. Just so sad.:cry:

We will be in LA on Friday to drop off Junior with his mom:cry:
and then home on Saturday!! YAY!!

:bounce: :bounce:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

34. I saw extended coverage of the fire, and I was horrified too...

And they think it's arson!

It is sickening to see the loss of life and property...:cry:


You'll be in LA Friday?

Where do you fly into?

Perhaps we could chat?

I'm going to PM you in a moment!

:bounce: :bounce:

[mvd]

13. Good luck, Peggy!

I am sure you'll do fine! It's a great venture. :hi:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

15. My dear mvd!

I'm hoping (and expecting) to do well......

Thanks!

It is certainly a very new chapter in my life...

:hug:

[mvd]

19. Poetry is one of my favorite writing forms

Glad you like it, too. My favorite poem is one I did on hockey. Unfortunately, I have to update it to reflect the newest hockey rules in regards to tie games. I might post it sometime.

Good night, Peggy! Again, sending good thoughts out to you.

[elshiva]

20. Thank you for teaching a poetry class! You are a heroine!

God blesses you and your work. Good luck! :hug:

[CaliforniaPeggy]

24. My dear elshiva!

I'm taking the class...

And I will still need your very good wishes, sweetie!

"As far back as men have recorded their history, veils have been lowered to disclose a vast new reality—rents in the fabric of Man's awareness. And somewhere, in the endless search of the curious mind, lies the next vision, the next key to his infinite capacity..."

[CaliforniaPeggy]

68. My dear Parche!

Great poetry, sweetie!

I thank you for it...:hug:

And how very appropriate your little snippet is for me today...

You know I do have a curious mind...

:bounce: :bounce:

[Inchworm]

[mulsh]

72. You will do fine

judging from your posts around here you have the spontaneus creative thing down. don't be afraid of anything and learn to pick out the most helpful criticism. good writing requires that one write, constantly so write.
