Oh, my, what a nice, nice way...Hi Gretchen (Mimi)!<br /><br />Oh, my, what a nice, nice way for me to start my day with such a lovely comment. Certainly don't feel deserving of such praise, but it really made me feel good. I would love to meet you too someday. I remember you being some of my first comments and always having such thoughtful things to say. <br /><br />I think over the years, as we bloggers get to know each other, we tend to learn that we aren't really that different from one another. After a while, we realize that we all have a love and respect for the creative world, we love to encourage others, and of course, we appreciate validation for we do and appreciate that our work is respected. Blogger friends are a true blessing as they truly "get" what we are about and yet, we maintain our uniqueness while admiring others at the same time. <br /><br />Thank you so much for taking time out to share your thoughts with me. As you know, your work is one of my favorites. I have watched you grow over the years, and your readers truly admire you and your talent as well....so wonderful to watch each other over the years and the growth that goes along with it.<br /><br />Wishing you a very happy and exciting 2012!<br /><br />Much love<br />ElizabethElizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-82545498492683810042012-01-17T22:27:01.287-06:002012-01-17T22:27:01.287-06:00Sweet Elizabeth...I am another of your longtime fa...Sweet Elizabeth...I am another of your longtime fans. It was at least as far back as the Mary Engelbreit apartment article when I heard of you as well. And you were the first blog I ever read and followed. You totally had me as a fan immediately and your store was on my bucket list of things to see/do b4 I die. lol Now, since that isn't possible anymore... meeting you one day is still on my list of Must do's. Rachel Ashwell early on and than next it was you that were my decorating styles that I was smitten with. <br />You are so talented, so gifted in so many different ways and your blog posts are always entertaining and the photography and styling to de for... Well done.<br />You receive as an out pouring of your readers love back to you. It is more blessed to give than to receive, as the good book says, but it's pretty wonderful to receive surprises as well. Makes one realize how much one is loved and how blessed we are to have this blogging opportunity in our lives. I have 4 people on my bucket list to meet one day, and you are one of them. None of them are as famous as you, but 2 of the other ones are blogging friends, and 1 is a jewelry customer. The president doesn't even get on my bucket list, nor any of the Hollywood stars. lol But you do. :)<br />Keep being the sweetie that you are, and good things will continue to come your way!<br />Gretchen<br />Mimi-Toria's DesignaGretchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13108570859594197670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-22145992984933305292011-12-14T12:27:50.517-06:002011-12-14T12:27:50.517-06:00Elizabeth

I collect them also and have a few on my blog at the bottom of my page<br /><br />Merry Christmas <br /><br />JaniceCurtains in My Treehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04739180504953135365noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-83371136927262699412011-12-14T11:34:39.718-06:002011-12-14T11:34:39.718-06:00Hello Elizabeth!

I'm glad that you were able to get all your finds in the truck. =)<br /><br />I have a weird thing about ladels too. My favorite is a huge tarnished silver punch bowl ladel. I found it at the Salvation Army for $1.49. I actually had to buy an old silver punch bowl just so I can use my gorgeous old ladel.<br /><br />Anyhow, it's delightful that you have gotten a few surprise gifts! Hope you have a beautiful, Christ-filled Christmas.<br /><br />Blessings...

How neat that my blog was your first.....Hi Stanna,<br /><br />How neat that my blog was your first...I find that so cool...so glad you wrote to me. I will look into the cream. Not long ago, I had a headache so severe (for a week) I went to the emergency room. I was sure it was something more. I got the IV drip and a MRI. "Just" a migraine. I then wondered why did I wait so long to go? I was instantly relieved. But then again, it feels odd to WALK into an emergency room, with all limbs intact and no blood spurting out. But I would do it again in a heartbeat if I ever get a doozy like that one!<br /><br />Thanks for caring and sharing,<br />big hug<br />elizabeth :-)Elizabeth Maxsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15301271156213625334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29659542.post-16954845567072495162011-12-08T21:05:51.235-06:002011-12-08T21:05:51.235-06:00Teresa,

I started doing hormone cream (biodentical) (sp). You have to be tested from blood from your finger tips. The cream is made just for you. I am afraid to keep saying it but I have not had a headache for the 2 months I have been taking it. I am so afraid it will stop working. I wish it would help someone else as much as it has helped me. It may be worth a try.
