Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, Captain Deb!  You can't keep a good woman down! Welcome back!  Take care of yourself.  I won't be in Chicago this August....too much family stuff going on, but I'm planning to make it to the next one and I expect to see you there.

Much love and hugs,
Brendalu

Ahoy Capt. Deb -

Glad to hear your feeling well better.  Sorry I won't be able to meet you in Chicago but the symposium isn't in the cards foir me this year.  Too much other stuff and a lack of funds.  I hope to make the next one. 

Wishing you continued good healing,

Slightly-belated-but-still warm Greetings and Saluations, Deb.  It's good to have you back.  :)

Life is not the way it's supposed to be. It's the way it is.  The way we cope with it is what makes the difference.

I'm way behind on my reading here, so I missed your return, Capt - but SO very glad to see you back and to know you are finally on your way to healing!  Take it easy, though...and we'll look forward to hearing from you again soon with continued good news!

I'm happy for you too, Cap'n!

I would like to see the artwork as well. Tried to follow it from Greg's post, but couldn't get to the artwork part, where I could see it.

Hoping for your continued improvement.

Maybe this isn't any of my business, but since we haven't heard anything from Deb for about 10 days, I am taking the liberty of putting a link to her web site.  It's http://www.frappr.com/CaptDeb and if you click on More Photos, some of her pictures are at the end of that page ...... beautiful work, I might add!!!

Deb, I sure hope you have just been busy and/or resting like you should and that is why we have not heard from you .....

Thanks Clarice!  Very nice pics of paintings there.

Keri, here's how I found several diff paintings:  On the site Clarice pointed out, under Captain Deb's Interests is "Interests" on the left that contains 2 websites .... Deb's links there provide several more.

Captain Deb .... next time we visit friends in W. Jefferson, I'll seek out any galleries in Boone or Blowing Rock that might have your paintings.

Thanks ...... Greg
