It's out- Old Grey Mare is in it. I'm thrilled.
It was great to work with April, Sunday and Mark.
Thank you.
Thank you for all the emails and comments and calls
of get well wishes to me over the past few days.
I know I will mend that much faster because of it.
I am cRaZy for all of you my dear friends.
You are the best.
Non bloggers do not know what they are missing.
but we do... <3
we give and receive love
with no agenda
no judgements
no limits
oh, sometimes we falter with a few nasty folks
but we always rise above it.
I am proud, yes PROUD,
to be part of this community.
I am blessed beyond measure
because of it.
Much love,
z
for those of you stopping by for the first time,
you may want to scroll back a few posts to
get past the cough-cough-cough stuff of me being sick.
I'll return to my feisty, irreverent self soon enough..
hopefully wearing something besides mismatched pj's with a hole in the crotch, and a bra to hoist the girls back into place, some makeup, and a hairdo that does not
resemble Alfafa's or the hunchback of ND.
Oh Lord, I look bad...
( and I may smell like day old Vicks)
If there was a way someone could
sneak in and photograph me I would
be plastered in one of those "seen at Walmart" emails or
at the very least a huge Glamour Don't.
So look at the pretty houses and pretend
I belong there OK?

I have not received my issue of CS yet, ugh!!!!!!! But, I flipped through an issue from my friend....and I saw "the" house and I thought it was you, LOVE IT !!!! I love the touches of color, just right! Can't wait until I get my issue so I can spend and evening pouring over the photo's.
The description of you sick is me on a daily basis,lol. Good thing I do work part-time and have to look decent or who knows what I would look like. :-) Congrats on the magazine feature. That's awesome!
Oh you are too cute, describing how you look today. I am sure you will be back to a more glamorous self soon. Congrats on being in the magazine.
Congratulations. I'll have to find the magazine. Feel better soon.
You haven't, apparently, seen me yet sitting here in my pj's and house shoes. No makeup. I never really wear any. And nothin' at all to hold the girls up!
Brenda
Yay, I can't wait to pick up a copy!
Kat :)

Should I bring my camera???? Z, you're supposed to be laying low and not blogging, silly goose - though I know how excited you must be about Country Sampler, and rightly SO! Kudos, kiddo...I tried to pick up a copy at B&N today, but they are still displaying last month's...will be patient! XOXO

I can not wait to get this magazine; I am so excited for you!!!
Congratulations! Your hard work is starting to pay off a bit, but apparently at a cost - I do hope you get well soon! At least you know all the tiredness and fogginess was there for a reason - if that's any consolation at all....
Rest easy Z.
Congrats on being publiced - that´s so great and so well deserved. Need to get hold of a copy.

Ooooo, I am going to go and look for it today! You would look good no matter the problem. You smell like Vicks and I smell like Ben Gay lately. LOL Kit
I got my magazine yesterday and when looking through it, I saw your home and I was thinking...hmmm this home looks familiar. I've seen this home before and then I got excited because I realized it was yours.
Congrats!!!
hehe that would be a funny pic :)
sorry but your description is hilarious
~laura xx be well
Hi Z,
My local Barnes and Noble didn't have the new issue of C.S. Can't wait to track one down and see your wonderful home.
I hope you are feeling better...and when you do feel better...give it another day or two before you start doing much. It's a sneaky bug.
If you don't have tissues stuck in your sleeve cuffs your look is not complete....
Be well,
Robyn
Oh Z, I'm headed to the store tomorrow! CONGRATULATIONS!! Can't wait to see your pics. Too darn cold to get out tonight. :) Loved your description of self and the Vicks! I can so relate!:) Just wished I lived next door...would bake you some bread, bring my tea bags, and sit for awhile! You are so, so right about the blog thing. Glad I discovered your place. (recoup girly, girl)
Hi Z,
Congratulations!! I now of course need to go out and buy the magazine!
Sorry you were not feeling well. Hope things are better now.
We are taking things day by day here. Alex didn't go back to school and my stepson and his wife drove here from GA. The time is getting close.
Jane
So happy for you Z ~ congrats!!
Now get back to bed!
Congratulations! I'm going out tomorrow to pick up a copy. Can't wait to see the pictures!
Even sick, you are hilarious! the description of yourself makes me proud to be your friend! I am not even sick and I am staying in sweats all day, so that being said, I guess I'm ready to go shopping @ Wamart!
Congratulations, I will be looking for the best issue of Country Sampler ever!
Keep getting better!
t.xoxoxoxo
Hello "Z" Congrats on your great spread in CS. Love your house. If I could start all over I'd do your style. I am also a redesigner/stager/organizer and love to "tweak" and edit. Love your burlap swags; may steal that idea, OK? Going over to be a follower; please visit me: http://theoldefarmhouse.blogspot.com but not with Internet Explorer...Blogger is not letting me get comments that way!!! Working on it! {{HUGS}} Joy
Congrats!!! I haven't seen it yet but can't wait. Hope you are feeling better.
Congratulations. I will be buying the issue.
I am glad to see that you have not lost your sense of humor with all that you have been through. That is one of the reasons I enjoy our blog-friendship so much. You got SPUNK girl!
I hope you are getting ALL better soon!!!!!!!!!!!
Lots of love, Evi
Oh boy! I gotta get me a copy of that magazine. I am so happy you are feeling better. Every sad post you made had my bottom lip hanging lower and my brow furrow getting deeper. I think I got a bad haircut this time out of empathy. Seriously, my hair looks "Beber-ish" and the color is off. Can you claim disability for age related adjustment disorder?
Love you,
Karmen
Aw Z :( Still not well? Well hopefully, you will be back in full form again soon. Although it sounds like you are already trying....minus the hole in your jammies......
Congrats on the article!! I must get to the bookstore and get me some Z house love :)
Hugs and purrs,
"Her" and Romeo
Congrats, z! And feel better soon, K?
I had to scroll down to see what you've been up to... busy bee for sure.
Hugs,
the other Z
Hi Z ,Me again. I just saw the wonderful news! I will be looking for the issue! Also coming by for my dose of laughter on a regular basis! N.xo
