Thursday 18 December 2008: Natale è tutto intorno
Christmas is all around...
...and i also discovered that often reality can beat the fantasy...how?!...if the video up here is from a film...well check this REAL "christmassy" Billy Idol :)
Anyway ...yes Christmas is all around...and i'd like to wish to all you bliippers and your families a wonderful BUON NATALE!!!
...and i'd like to especially thanks those dear blippers that have been asking about me and where i was in the past days....you are sooo kind....too kind i'd say!...and i wish i could be able to thank you all...door to door with a warm slice of cake!:)
To answer your questions...well...it hasn't been an easy period this past one....for different reasons...and i also thought that i best keep blipfoto apart ...for a while or ...i don't know...but now i should concentrate more in looking after the people i care ...(myself for first ;-D)...and all the other interests i have that i miss!
I'll keep taking shots when i feel like...and also practising the post processing tecniques....i may upload something on my flickr account...and maybe...if very good also here on blip! we'll see....no plans....just follow my moods and feelings!:)
Thanks to all the people that followed and commented my journal and shots...u are a great community...and i'll keep an eye on your great work every now and then!:)
Again....to all of you Merry Christmas!
Arrivederci! :)

Wonderful Christmas images Poppins, we did miss you!
Hope things are better for you now and if you need to take a break then you must do that and don't feel confined by having to post or comment regularly - you have to live your own life too!

Will you please come to Minneapolis some day and we'll go dancing at Paisley Park with Prince? I can even teach you Afrikaans while you're here if you're still trying to learn (read that some time ago in one of your comments)
And when you can, will you please post one of your beautiful pictures and lovely commentary so we know you're OK?
Thanks for the warm and wonderful pictures today and your wishes. Same exact ones to you, Poppins! We want you to be happy!

I have been so busy myself with a host of changes coming in my life. Blip has always prided in having a Venetian blipper. I, along with many will miss seeing Venice everyday through your blips, as well as your words and comments. You can drop in once in a while if you like. Forget about the commenting, if it takes too much time. We'll be glad to see photos from you. Take care of yourself and your family.

Hi! I'm new to Blipfoto and late for Christmas, but I wanted to tell you how very much I like your Christmas blip. This belongs on a greeting card or on the month of December in a 12 month photo calendar. Again, thank YOU.

Hello Spoonful,
I too am new here and just read your 'About' page, as well as your Christmas blip. I do wish you well and send you happy, sugary thoughts and energy. I would adore it if you were able to go door to door to share a slice of cake (sounds a little like Santa Claus).
My best to you,
Deb
~ debsthoughts

A very belated merry christmas and happy new year to you, poppins. Hope 2009 is starting well for you.

I hope you are well and you get back to the photography soon.
