Wow Kylee, thank you. I certainly enjoyed your video ... your mother is a wonder and you appear to be her clone :)
I love the lullaby as well.
Hi Lindalou ~ fun to create since I adore the moon, the December full moon, always a delight!
Thanks Kiki ... a December 'magical' gift!
Kate, you're a dear, and your 'Blue Moon' New Year's Eve sounds devine! You must keep me posted on the fun snowshoe party :)
Your photo is seems ethereal... very, very nice! May I paint it?
And thank you, dear Shady. Of course, I would be delighted to share this with you ... would love to see your painting when finished. You are a gifted crafter but didn't know you also painted. Wow, I'm impressed with your many talents!
It's always fun to play around, Nancy, never quite knowing ... and as you might have guessed, I especially love the moon!
Thank you, Helen. Enjoyed your post on the Winter Solstice ... Yea ... not too far away!
Hello Di and thanks. I've enjoyed your fine eye behind the lens also.
Wow, inspiring ... thanks Monica :) Happy Michigan December!
It's a good job I've just eaten my tea - I could have got very hungry reading that Chocolate Bourbon Bundt Cake!
How sweet, dear Nutty! The moon is one of my favorite subjects. How's the tea house coming ... are you still able to work on it?
happy december.
Thanks for sharing this song; so poignant--hope life is going well for you, Joey.
Thank you, Ida. I just returned from viewing lovely photos on your site :)
Thank you, dear Rose. As you know, I love the moon ... sang this bedtime song to my children and now granchildren ... love it! At the lake and will be checking out Nancy's house, now on the market. We certainly miss her :( Am without a computer (on hubby's) until next week ... transferring files from old PC to new wireless iMac ... expect a few hiccups but very excited :)
About your computer troubles--you should be able to move all your stuff from your PC to your new Mac. I've never done it because I've always been on Macs, but it's not supposed to be too difficult. If you go to the Apple website, there should be good help sheets-or contact Apple directly, or your seller--if they're any good, they should know how to do it. I wish I could help more than this.
I hope this isn't goodbye, dear jodi :( ... you were one of my 1st contacts when I began my blog, always a joy loving, through all ups & downs, your marvelous sense of humor. Thanks for your advice ... actually the Apple Store had both old/new over entire weekend and could not transfer ... brought in special USB cables (none worked) and spent 2 hours scratching heads ... had my 1st One to One class with many more to follow! So (living on Apple websites) working hard (time consuming and missing my Garden Club Christmas Luncheon) to do as best as can recovering from PC to my new Mac. Know once all together I will love it! (((BIG HUGS)))
And I'm sorry to know of your pc woes. I hope you'll be back on track soon, because, seriously, the (blogging) tribe is getting a little restless.
