Are any TA's scheduling that in 2016? Or between now & end of this year? If you know of non-TA's with your excellent skills or if you are leading such an event, I'd like to know. jgaoffice@gmail.com Tnx!jan godown anninohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00091996699597066230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3934041490878801751.post-17901947780170097242015-06-20T12:36:58.779-05:002015-06-20T12:36:58.779-05:00April your drawngs hold a sense of enchantment as ...April your drawngs hold a sense of enchantment as does your "Looking for Inspiration," which made me laugh! Deadlines are my friends. And Nature nurtures me in so many ways. I agree about having my hubby along as a lucky charm at important times.
