Rodney Pinkney would let absolutely nothing get in his way of asking Miss Tasha Jenkinsto the school dance. Not even the huge volcano of a pimple sitting right by his nose!
Moral of the story. In 2010 let absolutely nothing and nobody keep you from doing
what is in your heart to do. Man up and go for it!!!!! I'm cheering you on he he he he!!

Today is my first *Art Day* since the surgery and I am so excited I don't know if I will get out of the PJs......or just go start slopping gel medium and paint and cutting papers! (yeah, I am the consummate sex-goddess at the moment....NOT!!!)

Ooh, a large pimple ... that's going to be difficult to man up too! hee hee hee!!
But I agree totally ... you've got nothing to fear, but fear itself! Here's to "going for it" in 2010!
Hooray! I'm all for this post. You inspire us all, and I thank you! My goal is to let go of inhibitions and holding back. I'm setting my sights on living abroad and you've helped me stay positive with this message.
Peace, health and happiness for you in 2010!

I, totally agree with you Vanessa.
Let us be positive and not fearful.
God is good and gracious, he is always in control of all things.
We should surrender all things to him.
Another word, we do according to HIS will!

Woman up! Right on. That is why there is make-up. Vanessa, I hope 2010 will be a good year. I am getting old and for the first time I do feel old. Happy new year dearest sisterfriend.
I love it!!!! Happy New Year.
Vanessa, thanks so much for all your lovely comments. I'm sorry I haven't been visiting as often lately--life is getting in the way of life!

LOVE this one!! So much character and fun!! Happy New year!!!
