Florida will not be adopting/buying new lang arts texts for about 7 more years.

I've been disgusted by that until a minute ago. Now I wonder if I & my colleagues can find a great opportunity in this cheapness.

Maybe we can break from the bondage to the contents of our printed, same every year, text

between

I webbed into some celtic music by Aine Minogue.

On her website was some information which connected with me....about between-ness.

webbing some more, and I found this:

This is the state known as liminality, from the Latin, limen: a threshold – the state of being “in between” places and times. In Celtic tradition this is a sacred time when the doors between the worlds are open and magical events can occur.

which led me to work on this photo I took in Paris of doors. I have a couple photos of this beautiful set of doors and was thrilled when someone entered, allowing me to get a picture of one of the doors open. I waited to take the photo until the person was out of sight.

I am really happy with this piece. I've wanted the Tim Holtz urban grunge ( I think that's the title) set of stamps. I finally got it at StampFest in Clearwater in Feb.

I also learned more accurately how to make the colors in the background by watching Ted from Stampers Anonymous demo for a long, fascinating time. Ted also gave me one of his demos. That made me happy !!!
