Awww... thank you for the compliment on the gradient. I make all my own... and if you'd like to try some (and they might not be your style so don't worry about my feelings being hurt if you don't want to) I've uploaded at least one file to my scraps... maybe two.

Aww... thanks... but nope, I'm not all that impressive... just a regular gal that likes to fiddle with programs! I think YOU are impressive for using UF. I've admired the UF fractals a lot, but don't have the program (and can't afford to buy it) so have no idea how it works.

mistywisp In reply to anjaleck [2007-05-21 01:18:48 +0000 UTC]

Nooooooooooooooo... I don't use UF!! I have it, but can't get anything decent from it yet! I have used Sterling a bit and Tierazon, but only basic stuff. You've got me confused with someone else! BTW, you can download a free version of UF and it lasts for AGES...

anjaleck In reply to mistywisp [2007-05-21 01:24:52 +0000 UTC]

Yeah, but doesn't it put little marks all over the fractal when it's rendered? I thought someone else tried that and it's what happened.

Okay... It was your Tierazon images I saw then... same deal to me... I can't get anything out of it either. Maybe I just don't have enough patience! lol

You are so welcome, Steve, and I am so happy you like it! Someone else requested that I make it available as a print so I did. I hope you don't mind.

As far as it being for you, I will make it downloadable if you want to save it that way. I typically don't make anything downloadable because of thieves. So, if you want it please let me know and I will edit it to make it available for download... and then edit it again so it isn't after you get it.

Let me know, K?
Love,
Anj

zsteve In reply to anjaleck [2007-04-28 08:22:00 +0000 UTC]

That's a great compliment to get a print request! Of course I don't mind. Suppose it's a bit "iffy" to provide a download because of the difference in time zones, which means it will be available to anyone for a period of time. Not sure how to get around that, other than you email me the full-size jpg. Let me know which way you want to go.

anjaleck In reply to zsteve [2007-04-29 17:33:36 +0000 UTC]

Agreed... about it being download-able for a time span, but let's set a 24 hour period when I will make it available, K?

Thank you, honey, both for the compliment and the favorite. I'm not sure I'm healing any. Heck, I still haven't fully accepted that she's gone. But I think I am learning to control my grief a little more.

anjaleck In reply to CorazondeDios [2007-04-26 23:50:07 +0000 UTC]

I think you're right. The grief counselor was here last night and she told me she's worried about me... that my grief is not only a serious case, it's also a complicated case due to the girls and everything going on. She feels I'm still in the numb stage and that I won't let myself go farther because I won't be able to deal with what is going on in our daily lives. So, yes, time to cry some more... maybe look at Chrys's pictures. Sigh...

Anj

CorazondeDios In reply to anjaleck [2007-04-26 23:55:01 +0000 UTC]

yeah. moms are not allowed to fall apart....

but sometimes, you have to cry it all out.

it's a final thing -- only tears can heal it. maybe the girls could visit someone so they wont see you crying, and just your husband could be around so you can get it all out in the comfort of home.

or, maybe you need to just go somewhere peaceful out in nature for a weekend, and in the comfort of that environment, let grief take its course and be healed by nature.

eventually, you need a vacation with maybe just your husband, so that if you need to cry again, nothing will impede you -- no family responsibilities, etc.

it takes time, but just be peaceful when it happens. like a river hitting a waterfall. it's got to go over, and it hurts more to hold it back than to let it flow.

much love

Well, I don't know if I'm going forward or backward in my grief process. I keep getting sick, which isn't a good sign. It feels like I've gone back into the numb stage again. Sigh...

Thank you so much for all your encouragement and support. You might know this already, but it never hurts to say it again... it means a whole lot to me!
Love and hugs,
Anj

take echincacea.

take photographs.

treat yourself to things that bring joy to your heart.

numb is good. it's ok. you can keep going.

it is your right to digest pain whenever you want to. your tears belong to you. they are private. I still grieve for my father 40 years later. Not all the time, but he was my dad. I have a right to miss him. And I have a right to love and to find joy. He would not want me to be sad all the time.

everything is a process.

have a cookie!

oatmeal raisin, or better yet, with "craisins" -- that is how I make them for my mom!

(they are REALLY good with chopped dates in them)

now I will have to bake and mail you some!
