Oh Orange,
I don't know how you can do it. Isn't there a better place you can stay besides a tent? Your health is what I'm worried about and you not getting any rest and breathing in all that smoke. You could come stay with me but that would be one hell of a treck back and forth to water your gardens lol. I suppose every thing is packed with people wanting to escape....what a shame to watch it all go....Even though I was a kid the two times I lived there I can still remember how beautiful some of California was. We lived in the desert..not so beautiful to some but full of wonderful things..We used to go up to Big Bear and take drives up to Santa Barbara both were lovely. Also did lots of shopping in the San Bernodeno Valley (my spellings are probobly all off) I heard much of those places are burned too .
I like your rain God he looks like he is trying to squeeze out a little relief for you. A nice steady slow rain would be nice for you all...but I know when it comes it comes in buckets there..and many mud slides to deal with...keep drawing you small clouds in hope that it won't come that way. Hopefully mother nature will step in and gentle quench the earth as I know she didn't start all these fires.
What have you done with all your treasured Items...painting and such? I hope you were able to ship them off somewhere for safe storage
I left you another note at the forum but you had gone. I think maybe there is a way to change the background to Grey..easier on the eyes...but you need to contact Switch...also at the bottom on the right of you inernet exporer you can ajust the size when viewing.
you can always get someones attention on "Talk to me baby..." we use it most of all but you will find you will like a few places once you get used to it...You'll get your Nitch
. To be honest I didn't like it at first and drove Swtch up the wall with a thousand questions hehe. But now that I'm more relaxed there I like it so much better. You NEVER have to deal with all the MSN CRAP...your stuff is always there.... I posted about a museum trip i took and would have shut WSAM down with the pics I posted....Just nude statues and artwork...Its unbelievable the prudishness of MSN... so you can come frolice nude in the corn fields with Pattie and the gang at the forum hehe. You can be as crazy or creative as you want...we all are adults and know where to draw the line or you can chose to be 14 if you like hehe and be silly
. Don't give up on the forum.....Switch mad me stick it out when I was ready to throw in the towel and I'm glad he did
Take take of you and all thats yours. I hope this nightmare will be over soon for you. If you need to vent we will find you sweetie.
Take care,
Jewel
