natural11 200 Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Went to a home and garden show where I got in for free (my bank gave out free passes) and learned about the propagating of roses and how to plant and care for succulent plants. There's even a local club for succulent plant enthusiasts. I also met a gourd artist and a photographer who are offering classes I may take! Fun day! ??? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Subscriber padawanbeck84 471 Posted February 12, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted February 12, 2018 It's always nice to learn something new, isn't it @natural11 I read out a short story at writing group today - and it moved one lady to tears. In a nice way (hopefully) rather than being disturbing. The rest of the group liked it too. I also found about another local writers' group who are hoping to start up a magazine. I will get in touch with them and see if I can get to their next meeting. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Subscriber padawanbeck84 471 Posted February 13, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted February 13, 2018 I took some pictures to get framed - and it cost less than expected I bought a number of paintings and sketches at conventions last year, but hadn't been able to find frames for them. I look forward to collecting them once they're ready. One of them is a U2 painting It's going to look very smart on my wall. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

natural11 200 Posted February 14, 2018 Share Posted February 14, 2018 (edited) (This was actually yesterday morning, but it is a good thing that happened....) I checked out a book from the library that that fellow Zootop pain_18_ recommended titled The Secret Book of Frida Kahlo, A Novel by F.G. Haghenbeck. I had requested it a couple of weeks ago because it was not in my town's library. They got it from the Kern County library! I am so thankful for this request system that my area has in place!! It is EXCELLENT ! Thanks again for the recommendation, pain_18_!!! Edited February 14, 2018 by natural11 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
