the above doesn't look like me - my hair is longer and grayer, I wear glasses and I've got a few more laugh and life lines in my face, but thirty+ years ago, it would've been right on target!
I was introduced to Bryce back in 2001/2002 and immediately fell in love! I've always been creative but never thought I could make anything 'artistic' since I can barely draw stick figures. Bryce changed all my negative thinking. Not saying my art is good or bad, but I think it's as least better than my stick figures!
Having Multiple Sclerosis means I have good days and bad days. Bad days I have trouble typing so comments will be short and (hopefully) sweet; good days I'll wax more poetic LOL. If you send me a site mail, it isn't personal if I don't get back to you right away because my memory sucks. (which is why I'm having to relearn Bryce all over again! AND make myself frequent notes!)
At times I will mention naming a piece after the song playing on one of my favorite internet radio station. One station is NativeRadio.com where they feature a wide and eclectic mix of world music, predominatly by Native American, First Peoples and other indigeneous artists. The other is the oldies stations where I relive my ill-spent youth! I'm a baby-boomer which is as close as I'll get to revealing my age here!
I live in Alabama with my husband and our 'blended family' of four dogs - our house is maintained for the care and comfort of the dogs; we are ever at their 'bark and call' so to speak! My other hobbies/passions are creating original beaded jewelry and designing my own webpages.
September 26, 2012 - You may see a proliferation of images from me for awhile.  After FOUR YEARS of unavoidable Bryce abstinence due to computer crashes, I may go a bit nuts making up for lost time!
Sept 4, 2012 - Success!! Changed user name from cherokeeheart to moonhawk!! Â Yipee!

PS - By oral family history, I am part Cherokee but I can't prove it, not well enough for tribal membership anyway. Â Also according to oral family history, I am also part Irish, English, German and maybe Norweigan, but I can't prove those bloodlines either!

Right now, conflicting news of who the shooter and exactly what had happen. Investigation is still going on. It is so unfortunate for something like this to happen. Prayers to the victim's and their family. Aloha

I'm not going to rant here tonight as it wouldn't help those effected one bit and just say that my heart is shattered today learning this newest tragedy just days after what happened in Oregon..My thoughts are with those that were directly effected knowing this could have been "maybe" avoided if here in the States we had better gun laws period!...

I have read the news and learned what I could. I could leave a rant here but it does no good based on what I've learned. My thoughts and prayers for the families of those who have died.

My heart aches for the parents that lost children .. for the lives of the children .. cut short before they even knew where their lives could go, for the community that is in shock, for the adults who's days were cut short, for their families who are in such pain now. I cannot even comprhend .... My prayers for the whole community ..

Very real and meaningful words. Angels do come to help in tragic times like this. I think collectively we know that (1) either we are by far the most insane nation in the civilized world or (2) we need to step up and admit we are far to permissive with the all sacred 2nd Amendment. I do not believe right needs to be scraped to change its meaning and dynamic. I do know it is way past time to make the changes needed. Some say this isn't the time to talk about it but I am going to go out on a limb here and say "when the hell is the right time?" God Bless all in this country that suffer this needless insanity with others or God forbid for their lost loved ones.
