Dearly beloved we are gathered here today to say goodbye to this blog. This blog has existed for 4 years. It won't be deleted. Just retired. I'm tired of looking at it with it's ever increasing time lapses and thinking I ought to write something. I guess I need to bring some definite closure to it rather than letting it linger, lost, lonesome and unattended in some nebulous corner of the blogosphere.
I am eternally grateful to have met each and every one of you. You all have been gifts to my life. I'll be on facebook. And I'm still at etsy too. I will answer emails and I hope that our friendships will continue. Let us take a moment of silence in respect..... Ha!
I leave you with a mixed C.S. Lewis/John Eldredge quote I heard last night:
"...open the windows to the clean sea breezes of the centuries and let them blow through or you suffer in the myopic experience of your own time..."
Maybe kinda random, but I liked it last night, and still do this morning.
I love you all.
Take Care,

sheds a tear.
you will be missed.
unfortunately i do not do facebook. i am holding out until something cooler comes along. ;-p
we love you.

Cheryl, I understand the need to move on from things. It is like seasons...all things change...indeed they must. But I agree with Arthur and the J-man....you will missed terribly! It's good to know that you will still be on Facebook though. Keep sending out flair from time to time! I dig it.
Any how I'll leave you with a Celtic blessing:
Bless to Cheryl, O God, everything her eye shall see,
Bless to Cheryl, O God, everything her hand shall do,
Bless to Cheryl, O God, everything her brain shall think,
Bless to Cheryl, O God, this change in her life and where you are calling next,
Bless to Cheryl, O God, each place she is and all her tools,
Bless to Cheryl, O God, the people she shall serve through her work.
Be in the interruptions and the setbacks,
Be in the eye of the person who is difficult,
Be in the eye of the person who is a delight.
Daddy God be with her whatever she passes.
Jesus be with her whatever she climbs.
Spirit be with her wherever she stays.
Father, Son and Spirit be with her evermore!
