Day 7 part 2

Day 7 wednesday:

Wow 14 members so soon, thank you all for joining Celebration Joy. And I am very glad the groups mail works, one time instead of 14 times.........;-}

I did a few thing for Florabelle's: baby pic and DiDi's feet, and my new room.





Have to write a bit after this, for my story and BIW. 3,5 page till now, but 4 more day so 10 pages must be made.

It might be odd, but I have veen creative, but there is not much futher I know to tell about it, so this will be again a short blog after two long ones.......

See you at day 8.

And Dan I am far more creative lately than I was for a year. So CCS brought me positive energy and new friends..........


Thank you for that

Day 6 part 2

Day 6 Tuesday:


My creative thing today is creating a new group Celebration Joy, about global moments of Celebration, I tried to send out a groups mail, but it seems it doesn't work, so I emailed Dan about this. I already saw that there are a lot of days I never heard about............

So this will be an interesting journey. I saw also a few ones that are not really for Celebration. Than I will ask the group if they want to discus that day.

After this I will add some pages to my story.

Hope next time groups mail works.

Not so much to tell this day, but been creative all a long,

Day 4 and 5 part 2

Hello,

Thanks for the comments. Here day 4 and 5.

Day 4 Monday:

I started my story for Didi's teacher. This morning some ideas came into my head and I jotted them down, between my work I had to do. This afternoon I got some photos in print, I hardly print them but suddenly the idea came to print my soulcollage card photos. And I was amazed how good they where. Never thought scan of the clue cards made such good photos.

Tonight I start writing, not much, 51 words, but I made a start.


Day 5 Tuesday:

Today was a bit hectic, other half of the family sick, probably the flu. Didi had to see the doctor again. Picking up Russian dwarf guinea pigs, hamster(?), so sweet so small, suits in a eggcup as well. We took 2, for Didi's birthday, is actually in October, but why not.........


This afternoon we found a most gorgeous play kind of horse by the trash, it was calling out for me HELP< HELP> SAVE ME. So I did. I knew he will be important for me, he will be a figure in a new child story in the future. And he is so quite. I will be very good to him ;-}.


This day I wrote again, 182 words till now, with this 402 words so almost 2 pages, one page counts 250 words, at the end it will be more, and at the end of this BIW week it will be better than last month challenge. Helloooo, I have too. I want to be creative.


I still have to do my finger painting, booooehhhhh, put my baby photo at Florrabelle's, booooehhhh, do something for painting group, and translate a few things, boooeeehhh for not doing it. But I feel creatively wonderful, so it is coming.

See you later,

Love and hugs, Rita.

316 words, not to bad +182, two pages written today. Good. 512 words.

Day 1 and 2 and 3 part 2

At last I am back again. Day 1 part 2, you did that before? Yes I did, but when I wanted to update it last Sunday my little girl became sick. So I let it go, Luckily she is better now, although we have to see the doctor once again for her troath, her toncils, maybe they will taken her toncils out before the winter. But she is going to school tomorrow. But I loved the week with her, to pamper her.

So I restart my 30 day challenge part 2 again. I am in the swap so I can take that to here, I have to check out the IRC for postage, I never heard of it. Will check that out tomorrow.

Day 1 Friday :

I started to make drafts for the swap, two of them I made because my ;-Didi draw two weird faces, and said to me you have to do that as well, so I did. I like them although they are not pretty, ;-?

Day 2 Saterday :

Again my swaps cards, I have four drafts ready, that took me most of the day. So not much to tell about that. When the swap is finished I will put them on my blogs. Not before it is not fair to show what I have to trade, so it won't be a surprise than.

Day 3 Sunday:

This evening I start coloring, I love to use glitter feltpens. Two of them are finished, 3 more to go. I hope next week I have time to finish them all. Next week is the BIW challenge again. I will use that for my promise to ;-Didi's teacher to try to write a story with the theme of the children's book week we have here in Holland. The theme is Sub Rosa a book full of secrets, hard topic

A few years ago I did it to, theme was deep in the dark woods, and I wrote it in 90 minutes. I always thought when people told oh that song was written in 20 minutes, or thing like that, I said no way not possible....... till I did it myself.

The day before I had to have my story finished I had nothing. Watching my fav soap As the world turns I started to write, and see 90 minutes later it was there. Typing took me longer to do.

And the funny thing was, as I translate it in English every one loved my Noodles, the doggie from the story. After that I wrote more stories about him. At the time I wanted to make an E_book with the stories and with a friend, I thought so. Suddenly all contact was gone. Tried to contact her a few times after that but no answer, so I let it for what it is.

The BIW challenge is a yahoo group. Every month there is a challenge. You put your goal in the group how many pages you want to write that week, me 10. You have to check in with you number of pages you wrote, at least 3 times a week and your final total. So I have 3 things at once, my BIW pages, my story and my 30 day challenge............

See you tomorrow.

Day 1 and 2 - part 2

Hi I am back. My cold I almost gone. Wow, how bad I felt last week, and I had so many plans. But not the energy to do it.

But yesterday I start my new 30 days. I scanned my baby photo, it is for Florabelle's, have to transport it, our scanner is connected with our windows 98 pc without Internet. Our HP scanner could not be connected with our HP XP pc. Odd???????????????????????????????????

Oh yes buy soft where 30 dollars, no way, I have other ways to transport it. The old pc has now a new monitor and a keyboard, looks good now. I think I have all I need at the new room.

This week I will make a finger painting, was for Florabelle's as well, so I will do two groups in once. I just had a quick look at the main page and saw a lot of lovely things. If your a few days off, lots of things happens. I think to make an other soulcard. About a Dutch entertainer, he was more than that.

He, Jos, died last week from cancer, which was just determined a month ago. I saw a few programs about him, and I learned a lot about who he was. He "speaks to me so now and than the last few days". So I will make him a card. He was one of the very good persons.

A few years ago I wanted to ask him if he wanted to make spoken child stories of mine. He did it him self once. It was a good speaker. I was told to do it through his management. I thought yuk, who knows who is reading my post. So I didn't. Just a month ago I saw those papers again and thought in September I give it new try. Sadly not. I will write his husband a letter, I now I have to do that.

Jos wrote 40 books, was a very good painter, a good man.

This week I am going to dive in my stories. Sub Rosa means keep secrecy. I think I have a story that fits.

This is my Day 2 I guess, journaling is being creative as well.......?;-(). Or not...? If some one thinks blogging isn't being creative, let me know........ :--).


Love and hugs, Rita

Day 27 and 28 and 29

Day 27 Wednesday.

I wrote a note for Didi’s teacher, with the theme of the book week. So I hope I get an answer soon. I am thinking about a story I have written before as I told; just have to think about that.

I already was thinking what I can write beside that story. A book full of secrets and it is for children. That other story I had written for this a few years ago the theme was deep in the dark woods, I made a story about a boy and a dog, Little Johnny and Noodles, and I wrote it from the dogs point of view. And the funny thing is, I wrote more stories about both. And made illustration for those stories. I wrote other kids stories with follow ups, seems to work for me, ashamed I stopped writing............

Day 28 Thursday

Hope to get more done in a short while. First week of the kids school is almost over, so a little routine is there again. Hope it will be a good year for me, I really hope so. I have lots of things that need to be looked over, editing and more................ I want to draw and paint a bit. So a lot of plans. Joined an other group here, so I see what it all brings me. Till now CCS had brought me a lot of good things. Thank you Dan.

Day 29 Friday

Aha jus one day to go...... I didn't write or paint or draw that much, although journaling is writing as well :-o) I have been busy with collecting prompts and ideas. Got nice CCS-friends, so again CCS gave me a lot of good things. After tomorrow I will start over again that's a promise. I have to put my who am I here and my polished haiku................................

The theme is good this year so I may think about it what I am going to do, that book week thing. He didn't know, Didi's teacher what, Sub Rosa mend in this theme. I might have a look at the internet next week.

I invited others to join so I wait and see if they will join us. The CCS. I hope it will grow very large. Sorry Dan, that I put you on a statue, but I want you to have a lot of members. And I mean when I say CCS brought me a lot of good things.

See you at day 30.

Love and Hugs

Rita
