Holy Mind Blow Batman!!!


Well I got up this morning poured myself a cup of Brazil's Finest turned on the computer...and of course went first to my Favorite Spot...'Bloglandia'... and there, before me...what did I see...the number 200!!!! Well slap me silly and call me a cab I can't believe my eyes...!!! Seems like yesterday there were 100...and believe me I was thrilled to death with that number. I want to Thank 'SNOWFERN' for making it officially 200!!!
I actually want to Thank each and everyone for becoming my friend and making this journey through Bloglandia one of the best journeys I could take. Just to know you all are out there popping in once in a while to read my silly jottings makes life incredibly fun and full....

OK...so now I want to do what I should have done ages ago and what I have been marveling at others for doing... I want to have a 'Give Away' ... I am going to put together a Box of all sorts of things from the Creager Studios...some New, Some Old, Art Work, Misc. Goodies...a little of this....and a lot of that! This will be fun and I guarantee some cool stuff!

I will have someone (maybe my Mom...she is into Blindfolds!!...LOL) choose a name from my followers list...I will do the all time favorite of printing all the names individual and tossing into a Hat.... now if a Rabbit is pulled first out of the hat...that goes in the box too!!!.
I will probably do this Saturday or Sunday.... Oh Boy, I am excited now...going to go 'a gathering' ...
Thank You all once again for joining my blog with your Friendship, Kindness, tolerance and sticktoitiveness .

Big Hugs To All!!!!!

Jodi

Love your and Richard's work, i have been following this blog since it was set up, i just could not and can not access my google account so i finally created a new one!

Congratulation...it doesn't seem 5 minutes since you were excite over 100 :-)

Very well deserved.

I for one love to read you blog and look at all your picture...it not only gives me a smile but gives me so much inspiration.

I am so pleased to have got to 'know' you through here....you have been so helpful to me with first sculpt (((())))

Which, by the way, is finished and on my blog. Nowhere near your level...yet :-)But it is a start and it is good, for me anyhow, to set my sights high.
