Again, so lovely and so touching :bigcry:



today it was cool in the morning, you know how the seasons change ever so slowly? i felt the fall in the air (okay, maybe i am stretching it here;) but who knows what could happen by autumn? we'll find a harvest moon out there somewhere.

I really liked that song and that video. It made me feel so warm and so mellow.

OK well I just got another picture from my daughter that I really wanted to share.

It affects me like the earlier one I put on here of them sitting and looking out at the mountains. Like the first one, this is pure magic to me.

My great loves.....

It's so great that you both finally got to talk! It makes me so happy! And I'm sure she felt your glow also! If only we could all be together.


Indeed it would be wonderful for the three of us to get together!

But you know, we will be together when you come to my place and share what you two made for me. Without a doubt she will be with us.

And I do really look forward to helping you "Purple New England" next month.:)

I was writing this to somebody earlier and it occurred to me that I really haven't shared it the way it should be shared. I should probably cross-post it to my Purpling America thread even. But when I got back my mum said, you know, "You've changed!!" and I heard her talking to my sister on the telephone saying how she had such mixed feelings about me leaving but I was so much happier when I got back, like I was not the same person who left, because of all those "wonderful people".

And I just really wanted to share that, what difference she has noticed in me - my whole outlook on life - my whole sense of self after purpling america. So I think somehow America "purpled" me, if that makes sense.

it totally makes sense... i remember the last time i went to arizona. i spent a month in sedona by myself, i had almost forgotten completely how it felt to just be on my own. it really was so nice, and to meet new people, just dare i say, in a new unit of time. i love that feeling.
are you comming to stay in america, or are things up in the air purple stlye? there i go crashing denises thread again:) but you know david love is doing a tour in august also... so many possibilities.

i remember when my girl vega was asked in pre-school; "what do you want to be when you grow up?" and she said; "A BIRTHDAY GIRL!". out lf the mouthes of babes. BIRTHDAY GIRL, best profession ever, lol.

Well, my immigrant visa has been issued and I am booked to arrive in New Hampshire at midnight August 5. I will stay with Denise and go along with her to the SP party in Connecticut which finishes August 11 I think. And yes, I am so jealous of their road trip!! It is such a cool idea - so American!!

So I honestly don't know what I will do after the SP party. At some stage I will have to make my way back to North Carolina where most of my stuff is in storage. But that's weird as well - to not be with my ex but still kind of in contact with him is quite weird and destabilising.

Like I think, maybe I could do this, and then I think, no, he wouldn't approve. Then I think but I'm nearly fifty and we've been broken up for four months - although we did do the wild thing a few times when I stayed there. But we didn't un-breakup or anything. We both knew it was still over. So, yeah, I don't know. It's all terribly confusing. It was good to do that and realise well I'm not in love with him now - and it was kind of hot because I just didn't care anymore if he thought I was a "slut" or whatever. But why do I still feel answerable to him, like a child in kindergarten? Why do I still care if he respects me or not?
These are the questions that have been haunting me the last few days as I try to decide what to do next, along with :omg: am I serious about this... what the HELL am I doing??

Purple you will always have my place to stay whenever you need it. So if you need to figure things out about what to do after the SP Party, you can stay here until you figure it out. And you can stay as long as you want and can come back as often as you want. I work mornings usually and am often back by the afternoon. Just know that no matter what happens, you will always have a safe place to stay when you need it or want it.

You are answerable only to yourself, and certainly not to any man.

I do look forward to the chats we will have.:hug:


Oh and here you go Purple and IPT, some female magic to share with you :) These two songs were in one of my favorite CDs that I used to listen to in my car constantly.

The woods and the night, especially in the second song starting around 4:00, oh my:

Sorry it took me so long to reply but I was alternately pacing around my mum's lounge room and dancing to your faery music, which was so sweet and lovely by the way!

Well, wow!!!!! Gosh, what can I say about your most generous offer except thank you so much!!

I would never want to abuse it, but I do feel like I have a safety net there now as I step out onto that tightrope, and that makes me feel so much better - I can't tell you.

Psychologically it does give me a bit of breathing space while I search for a job and for somewhere to live.

Oh, far out, I love you!!

such lovely piano in that piece. i could pick that out by ear. you know, on my first trip to flag there was a mason hamlin grand just setting in some auditorium, unattended. i mean it was an absolutely magnificient piano. i don't even really remember where i was, it was before flag was all remodeled. flag seemed so much more organic back then... you could sneak away and play that piano all afternoon every day and never encounter anyone other than maybe a janitor.

but i got to know that twelve foot grand, and i knew then my next ten thousand for anything would be going toward a mason/hamlin grand.

i managed it too, and paid myself back slogging through lessons with young children. it was put to good use... there wasnt much you could do wrong on a piano that sounded that good.

my second trip to flag was different, i think there was a grand in the ballroom, but it was sorta off limits. scientology used to be a lot more rich. my definition of rich? grand pianos just sitting around waiting to be played, would be one of them.

:hug: to you ALL :)

I love that music, too, Denise! Sooo great chatting with you today.
I'm sorry to be late to this thread....I've been "stuck" in a MAJOR problem
that FINALLY got fixed, yesterday...so phew for that. Now time to :party:

Also, thanks for the great links re clothing: I bought 2 blouses today
and yup---we'll be twins w/ one, and that's fine with me. Purple is a color
many of us love and share. :biggrin: Also, the other one I liked only had
3 colors---so I figured I'd best just order vs looking some more. After ordering
I went back: Now only 2 colors of it! So I got the last "rose" one. :)

I wish I was able to come to the East Coast SP Party and hang with you all.
Unfortunately the problem I finally just fixed took all the savings I had for
that trip. Ahhhh life! Thankfully, then there are you all :bighug:

My best,

Tory/Magoo

Tory, it was so wonderful chatting with you, as always. And I knew you would love that place for the tops. IPT is the one who showed it to Purple and I.

I love you :love8:

I have to rush to bed but Purple check your PMs. You and Nancy Many and I are going to have a pajama party one of the nights. :dance3::party:
