If I weren't in CG housing, I think I'd paint my whole house aqua. Oh well. :) And by the way. You are NOT plump, you're fluffy, like me. Fluffy Chicks Rule!!! :) _____________________________________________ <em>"Yous not fat, yous fluffy"... IZ says that to me all the time. It must be a line from something, not that I recognize it. :D ~W</em> Ok, you told us not to tell you your photogenic, but you DO look cute in pictures. :) I love the color of your room.

How come I never noticed how gorgeous you are, my dear? I vow to stay out of the wicked sun this summer so I can achieve your beautiful, milky soft complexion. No fair! Or, 'eh, that is I want to BE fair. 'Eh,...whatever! ;) ______________________________________ <em>Ah yes, I'm pale. I have a Seattle tan. Ha ha ha.

Sounds like you're a bit like me...your own worst critic! I love the shirt...love the colors...and love your honesty...Rich and I went on a road trip yesterday...and he took a great picture that made me crack up...but the first words out of my mouth were, "gawds I look fat!" ... __________________________________________ <em>Heh... I don't know what it is about IZ and a camera... but I think part of it is I get really self-conscious around him when he's pointing the camera at me. I suspect that insecurity shows up in my photos.

Great rooms. Great photos. And, I love that you share your weaknesses with your readers -- it's hard to resist the urge to smooth out all the rough edges and make yourself into who you think you want to be rather than being who you are. Not that I've got the market cornered on self-honesty or anything. Sometimes we see best in others what we should work on in ourselves! :) ________________________________________ <em>Isn't it hard? I fight the urge to make it all pretty. On the opposing side, I don't think anyone wants to see photos of my laundry. (which for the record spends more time on my couch than I do!) It's such a fine line. I'm like any human being, I have growth edges galore. I'm working on them... and I kinda hope as I work on them in public that A.) they lose some of their hold on me, B.) I find some support along the way, and C.) I find a way to keep it all in perspective. :D I'm SO SO SO glad my readership gets it. ~W</em> Great shirt. Great rooms. Great photos.
