  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

It's been a while since I posted.

If you respond, you gotta do two things:

1) Tell me something that has happened in your life recently.
2) Quote one of your favorite movie/shows.

Good to be back :D

Welcome back

Well i have been busy with the painting and selling of my paintings.

After all it's not that awful. You know what the fellow said – in Italy, for thirty years under the Borgias, they had warfare, terror, murder and bloodshed, but they produced Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci and the Renaissance. In Switzerland, they had brotherly love, they had five hundred years of democracy and peace – and what did that produce? The cuckoo clock. So long Holly.

I love it! I connected with the instructor years ago. When the pandemic hit she brought her patternmaking program online. I plan to launch a line of sewing patterns when I finish and continue my studies. Fashion school is three years.

What have you been up to?

Well, if I knew that, I'd somewhat understand women...

Probably it was just by being...myself...
I don't think I even understand my own gender, so there's that.

Don't assume that you scared them off. It might be their own issues ;) :)

So happy for you! I think you'll do great at that :)

Just got back from Oregon (I live in NY) and taking today to relax and unwind from a busy week at work! I just recently moved a couple months ago, as well!

Thankie. :)

It was an unexpected blessing. I didn’t expect to bring patterns to the market until I finished school. I’m ahead of schedule. It added more to my plate but I’m pleased.

Oregon is beautiful. I hope you had a blast! How do you like the new place?

Yeah, who can know her fully, huh.

Yeah, I know, it just wasn't our season, I reckon.

It's funny, my Hebrew teacher just threw in the Hebrew word for butterfly, seemingly at random.

But, I believe everything happens for a reason.

So, I got to googling the word and this poem came up:

PARPAR - Jewish Songs | Hebrew Songs


Maybe I'll send this one to the last butterfly that fluttered away...

I did have a blast. :)

And my new place is going great! The last place I was in, my landlords were very toxic. So, it's refreshing to be out of there :)

I've done a spot of plein air painting in London. My first project was St Martin-in-the-Field - eh could have been better. Then I went to Southbank and painted the Thames from the Blackfriars end (facing Charing Cross) and actually did quite well. I thinking loosening up the brushwork helped massively. I painted a bit too tight earlier on in the day and I wasn't lowering my gaze or stepping back enough.
