The word that strikes fear into horse owner…Colic. / Before today I had never (thank goodness) had to experience this. Those of you who dont know of my mare, Matilda (Known as Tilly), she is an older mare, Bay breeding stock Paint (Meaning no colour): / Tilly This morning at about 8 my younger brother and I headed out to the paddock to catch the horses, planning to go riding. We saw the other mare, Adina, standing under a tree but no sight of Tilly. Suddenly my brother yelled and pointed and I saw the shape of a horse lying on the ground. My heart felt like it was ripped from my chest as I dropped the bridle I was carrying and ran across the paddock towards her. / I slowed down getting closer to her and there was no movement, I really didn’t feel like it was me walking towards her, it felt like a nightmare. As I called out to her, she suddenly lifted her head, I was relieved but as I got closer she didn’t get up. / When I reached her she sighed and then her neck streched out across the ground, gasping for breath . By that time I was sobbing, she looked so weak. We tried to get her up but couldn’t. All the time I was praying and I realized just how much I love her. / My mother rang some friends, and I finally managed to get Till up and walking, as I thought it would have to be colic. / For a few hours we walked, stopped, she tried to lay down again, we walked and rested. Finally she passed wind and manure and wanted to drink water. / Now she’s acting normal, I’m watching her closely but the worst is over we believe. I talked to a friend who is a horse expert (also the old owner of Tilly) and we did everything right it seems. So it has been a crazy morning, I’m so relieved that she is looking better now. I thought that I might have lost her and it really shook me.

Thanks so much to everyone who voted for “If I Lay On This It Keeps Playing”! You have made my day and night!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it. These little guys can really be silly. This win gave me a chance to pick a picture from the group that I thought should be Featured. A Member’s Choice Feature. That was fun and difficult to have to choose just one….but here is my choice. Thought you might like to see it.
Features Many many thanks to the following group and the hosts that have chosen to share my wares! / !http://images-0.redbubble.net/...
Features Many many thanks to the following group and the hosts that have chosen to share my wares! / (not forgetting Hertsman). “When the Chips are Down” was featured in Strictly Human Faces / Cover Me In Kisses” was featured in Lips Exhibition Hot Press! 5 June: / The opening night was last night (photographs to follow!) and I can only say a mega thankyou for the advice that was shared with me as I feel the opening night went wonderfully to say the least! Ironically the works that I sold last night are not featured on Redbubble as they were framed behind glass before I opened my portfolio to the world last October. On the opening night I achieved an reservation of a picture depicting two african women, and money up front sales of / - a set of four abstract dancers, / - an abstract of boats at sea, / - an abstract musician / - a galloping horse in chalk, / - an abstract soul singer / - a single stem tulip / - an optical illusion – face or flower I was given lots of advice and I used all help that I could with available resources : - the wine flowed freely / - all pictures were framed / - we advertised (about 100 people came to the opening) / - we had a visitors book for comments / - I produced cards and brochures displaying my works on Redbubble and Zazzle A gamble that worked was having a prize draw on one work of art. We charged a set amount for a ticket and put numbers in to a hat – the ticket was drawn and winner announced at the end of the first night. / I did not get the full value of the work of art but I made a couple I had never met prior to last night very happy and know that word of mouth will spread …..we will know more tonight! Thanks again! 6 June The exhibition is attacting lots of English which is a new experience for the venue …hope this continues beyond my exhibition! Sold an image of three african water carriers behind glass: one of my earlier works which had beauty in its simplicity. People are continuing to add to the Visitors Book and one visitor in particular loved my take on the Desperate Man ….it was excellent to hear this in person and to be there and see the reactions and expressions on people’s faces. Let us see what Sunday will bring! 9 June / So, halfway throught the exhibition and 15 (YES 15) original works of art SOLD to a range of people from a range of countries- international acclaim and fame looms as my works spread across the globe ….lol. Germany, England and Turkey are countries where people with very very good taste live! Comments are being placed in the Visitors book, people are taking my Contact Cards and lets hope that when the holidaying ends that they look up taiche on Redbubble and get to read the big THANKYOU for purchasing my work. For anyone that may be exhibiting their works 66% of my sales are works behind glass ….I am speechless as I thought the canvas works would appeal more: you learn something new every day! 14 June / The end of the exhibition and people that promised to collect did so (big sigh of relief!). A local restaurant asked if I wanted to display my wares: selected originals are now on show and for sale! / The sale of Raunchy and Risque is pending. / Best of all I have been asked to return in 2011….. :-) Sales MANY MANY THANKS TO THE PURCHASER OF MY OBAMA TEE!

I just wanted to let everyone know that I hope to soon be back to RedBubble, but for now, I am caring for my collie you have seen in most of my photos. He suddenly became ill earlier this week and was diagnosed today. The prognosis is poor. He is only seven years old. You have all been so wonderful to leave thoughtful comments about his pictures and I appreciate them so much. I look forward to seeing all of your latest beautiful work. Jan

What’s a Journal? / Your Journal is a great place to communicate with your fans and the people who are interested in your work. People who are watching you will be notified each time you update your Journal. I guess you could use it for that. Even though you comment on photo’s and have mass bubble mails to around a million people who don’t read them anyways. You know what, I think Honda should bulid a robot that looks like a chimera and it actually can breathe fire. But this fire is not your normal fire! It contains holographic updates of everything on RedBubble!! NO WAY!! So that way instead of having to ACTUALLY click on the Bubblemail link, AND THEN click on the Email itself. Now you can sit on the couch while eating your every so cool Diet Potato Chips (Hoax put on by Lays, chips ingredients consist of Isoprene thus the chipper [Def: One who eats Potato Chips] chews on the chip. And just keeps chewing…) while watching your favourite movie, “Gone With the Wind.” You can simply Clap, or Snap and aforementioned Chimera will then Spew fire and display all of your favourite RedBubble updates. Way cooler than reading a journal…like this one.

as he was laying there his hands cold as ice,i thought to myself how could this happen to a man so young and nice? i looked him up and down and could not understand what had possessed him to take his own life in his hand. as he was laying there, i will never forget the pain in his mothers eyes,the tears that fell and she just let.as he was laying there i said a silent prayer,that god would take him to heaven and keep him in his care.as he was laying there i knew he would be okay,because jesus is the light the truth and the way.

have you ever fantasized/wished that you would wake up one night, gaze around into the dark abyss as your eyes adjust, and when they do, you find someone siting in the low light in a corner, with the soft light of a moonbeam cast on them, or leaning over the bed, just watching you sleep, because they find you so beautiful and serene when you sleep, because they love you so much, and you love them, and they lean over and kiss you, the sweetest kiss you’ve ever had, and you lay together, just lay there, and enjoy each others warmth, presence, breathing, and heartbeat?
