It's All Over!

Sun Feb 28, 2010, 7:38 PM
With the closing ceremonies of the Olympics, it's finally sinking in that it's all over.
I feel so sad.

There was such a feeling, a joyous atmosphere. Alright there was a little bit of a scary moment in being stuck in a crowd when the Canadian Hockey Team won. But you'd be freaked out too if you couldn't see above anyone's head.

But apart from that, we had people from all over the world thanking complete strangers in Vancouver for hosting. You have never felt prouder to be Canadian. And even the cynics couldn't help but get carried away.

Regardless of what you may think of sports in general, you cannot help but get moved by some of the stories that the Games brings out.

And when athletes win medals by overcoming adversity or challenges along the way, you have to be happy for them no matter where they come from.

So long, World! It's bee a fun 17 days!
Y'all come back now you hear?

I am the owner of an online boutique called Hound and Handbag Gift Company. This boutique celebrates dachshunds and the ladies who love them (dachshunds and accessories are like chips;you can't stop at just one).This will become fulltime in 2010. I am also in the process of opening a store on Etsy.
I'm married to a wonderful man who puts up with my creative messes and stops me from getting dramatic. I'm happiest being in the creative process, and love being right-brained! Although running an online business makes me more left brained than I ever thought I'd be.
I'm working on a fantasy story (which has literally been 25 years on and off in the making). And the drawings that are getting posted here actually have more to do with that than anything else. I'm turning 40 this year, so I'm getting the guts to get the darn thing published once I finish it. So now I have to stop changing things.

"An unattainable love that inspires mortal creativity is like A TORCH IN THE DARK; it gives warmth and light but get too close and you'll get burned. And since you can't afford to put it off, you have to stay safely AWAY..."

Most people never regret what they did, but for what they never did.
Action may not bring happiness, but without action there won't be happiness

Admittedly, I have less faith on some days,but I guess that's what stubbornness is for!
