Home Again....What a Treasure!

     Me and Buster, one of the cats owned by the blogger of Art and Sew Forth, have something in common. We favor a comfortable nap every now and then. :-) And yesterday...was my "Then"!  I slept my head off!! I mean what else was there to do, with my computer gone, and having crocheted until my hand was tired of crocheting?!...By the way, what I was crocheting was using up some leftover yarn, making a pull-on hat. This is what it looks like so far.
    I'm making it with 2 baby-weight yarns and a black thread all crocheted together. Pretty spiffy, don't you think?! :-] Well...even if you don't think so, I'm doing it anyway! LOL
   And now, with my rested, at home {computer-wise} self, since I couldn't do it yesterday, I can now show you the treasury that MaritimeArts put me in yesterday! This is Simplicity!
   I love the Black and White! And this treasury is chock full of it!! I especially love the Black and White...Shoulder Bag by allwooledup. So cute!!
    Now, there were a few other things I liked in there too. If you check it out you'll see what I mean! Don't stare at it too long though. It may cause "Clickability"! ^_^
     Then I came online late last night and found out that I was also put in another treasury!! This one was curated by Cindy of CinLynnBoutique. I have to show you that one too! :-)) It's entitled My Hearts Content!
    Here are a few of it's 'treasures'...A Heart Pocket Watch Locket Necklace by lifedream...
    ...a Butterfly Filigree Barrette in Silver by BigBisous...
   ...and this gorgeous Twisted Heart Scarf Pin...by DonnaJs.
    I love both of these treasuries...and the ladies that honored me by putting items from my Wuglyees shop in them! :-) Thanks Ladies!!!
   Thanks also goes to all of you who have been giving me such wonderful encouragement while I was dealing with my computer fiasco. I'm really happy to have such nice people following along and ready to jump in with a good word for me when needed. Know that I NEVER take it for granted!! The poem today...a repeat...let's you know how I feel. :-]

Connection

There is a need inside of us
To just connect with someone else;

To look at them and somehow know
that who they are, can help you grow;

That if you just could somehow feel
the way down deep, that makes them real,

Your words will, then, no longer hide
the 'who' you are-the you inside;

And then, if you should laugh or cry
or lean your head, and give a sigh;

And if they mimic back to you
the same reactions that you do,

Then there's a real connection made,
and all your inhibitions fade.

All the walls that you put high
will fall away-into their eye,

Where you can look and see intense
emotion-and their innocence;

And you no longer must explain
the need inside, you now must claim;

The need to be the 'who' you are.
They've taken stock-and raised the bar.

Now-if you touch, or if you don't,
or if you will, or if you won't;

It doesn't matter-not a one,
the things they think, or what they've done;

Because connection has been made-
the needed, real, foundation's laid.

Now-there's a real relationship
that you give action-not just lip!

  2. CinLynn, Yes, I am much more relaxed today. I've still got to change the page size and the fonts and everything, but at least it's now familiar again!!....And the birds sang...and the cars honked...and THE WUG sighed!! LOL
