13....that number appears in many of my art pieces, I see it somewhere on a daily bases...I love the number.

Okay, now I am convinced that the banner in this blog is you !! :) There are so many similarities now that you have uncovered your lovely face !! Tee hee...

Loved Mary Quant too. Was too young for make-up but not for minis...My first visit abroad was to London and Carnaby Street!! I will never forget that trip.

Hated being 13...On the other hand, 13 has a special symbolism such as the Baker's dozen and in Lebanon, the florist always adds a 13th rose to a dozen (does this happen here? Never thought of counting)..

What a lovely song - the slide guitar is like honey matched by Alison's voice. Funny, I love music but I always look at the art first. With the vid going on I looked at your slide show, Gerard, the dune buggy etc - ths slide show looked good with this Lucky song going on.

Thanks for all your kind visits.

Another strong page - how did you write right off the page and not have the penmanship suffer? The work flopws well and has or grace and sentiments. It has intimacy and aI can see it as a wonderful labor of love - towards yourself and your family.

I was twelve or thirteen when I discovered girls - lttle shy crushes at first of course. Went to an all boys school which I would never puit my children through, Girls my age whjere in a building two doors down. Sacred Heart nuns ran both schools - I did get a great education.

I am very superstitous only at the craps table - used to play in Tahowe a lot in my young adulthood - that was more than 13 years ago. I have ESP, sometimes - honestly.

Love your journal page, very well done.

I met a woman the other day who very joylessly told me all her trouble in her life. I didn't care for her at all.

My lucky number is 7, I was born on the 7th, so it has to be, but I don't give it much thought, except for maybe thinking in terms of 7 meager years and 7 fat years etc. I guess maybe I do believe that, except I don't know which cycle this is. Must figure that out.

Maybe it goes in months and not years, yes, that must be it!

The composition and colors are outstanding in this piece! I love your handwriting!

I find it so interesting that 13 is your lucky number! I love the story behind it! I am really not fond of odd numbers, not sure why that is. Ben was born on the 11th and I was having a fit- I wanted to wait until the 12th. The rest of us have even numbered Birthdays! My lucky number is 2- and it came into play when I was 12 years old BMX racing- I broke my leg in the middle of the season. I had a hip to toe cast for 6 months...so I ended up finish 2nd in the state..it was this point in my life that I decide it would be my lucky number.

Have a wonderful weekend!
