wow! i can't believe a whole week has gone by! I had a super busy week with friends and family.... got to visit brett and rachel (sooo good to see them!)
We celebrated Doren's 18th birthday by taking a nice little trip to KC with the family. fun stuff!
Also... I just wanted to thank my friends here on my blog and in the scrapbooking world for so much positive support during my divorce. I appreciated your thoughts and kind words during such a difficult season. I feel very fortunate to have such caring and warm family and friends in my life. Life continues to move forward and I have so much to be thankful for. Thank you from the bottom of my heart, elsie

Hi Elsie, I'm a fan from Australia and took a class with you last year. This is the first I've heard of your divorce and wanted to give you my support as well. It must be a terribly difficult time. God bless ya Elsie.

Oh my God, Elsie. I had no idea. And I had that stupid comment a few weeks ago about wondering where he was.
I'm so sorry. I'll keep you in my prayers.

Hi Elsie...
I really am sad to hear about the D word. I didn't want to believe it was true, but thank for allowing us to "help" you through this difficult time. you are an inspiration to so many people, so hopefully that will help carry you through...

Been wondering myself about the 'single' stuff on flicker and myspace but didn't want to pry. I have been reading your blog for over a year now so it feels like I really know you...even though I don't. But I just wanted to say that my thoughts are with you during this rough transition and I am sending you *hugs*
