I did think about doing Ali's class but I feel i'm not quite ready for it. I would love to hear your impressions at the end of the class. I hope that you are gradually getting over Riley's loss and Scout isn't missing him too much.Viv@Thoughts from the Desktophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06730298140439036198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-45473473226356781702014-11-11T09:11:43.080-05:002014-11-11T09:11:43.080-05:00I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. ...I am so sorry to hear about the loss of your dog. It is so hard to loose a pet, they really are a member of the family. I always enjoy reading your Chronicles. I think every creative person has the 'how do I top that one' complex now and then. I have come to the conclusion that I create because I want to bring out into the world what is in my heart. Every once in a while I create something wonderful and that is a bonus, but not the total reason for creating. Yes I would love for everything to be wonderful, but I have to learn, fail and keep going between the wonderful. <br />I love your barn photo. Have a great week!Michelle Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00851453933697842657noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-31180344716980727452014-11-11T06:38:17.055-05:002014-11-11T06:38:17.055-05:00I enjoy your blog posts because they permit me to ...I enjoy your blog posts because they permit me to know you. On the loss of your family pet, I empathize. Losing a pet is so painful because they are so present - always loving and needing you. On your "best story ever," there will always be another "best" story . . . let go of expectations and just write. On your new class with Ali - can't wait to see more of these kinds of pictures from you. Your style is really evolving into photojournalism - love the shot with your eyeglasses, journal entry, and coffee. Embrace the journey. Can't wait to see what's next . . .

I looked at it good and hard but then was afraid it would be too geared toward women with young children. So I'll be interested to see how you do in there. Your photos are lovely and I'm glad Coffee Shop is back!Dottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811399388989716265noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-17244905427470649382014-11-09T16:44:19.229-05:002014-11-09T16:44:19.229-05:00Sad to hear about Riley . . .

I am behind on my posts . . . the one I read of yours most recently was of you and Scout at the park . . . and now I think if him in the picture and wondering what he feels like without his doggie companion,<br />brother/sister . . . <br /><br />As said by some of the commenters . . . your gift of a bit of humor in the Coffee Chronicles is an added treat. Loved the, "Little Red Riding. . ." reference. <br /><br />I think I'll be checking out the "younger/guy types" from now on . . . If I find one, I will stop by and tell him I have a Mallory possibility for him . . .<br /><br />Love your Chronicles . . . always your photos, most certainly your reflections, sincerely your zest and humor too.<br /><br />Love the quoted piece . . .

I know how difficult this can be as I have experienced it too. Your coffee shop story is delightful! I can't get enough of these..... I had read parts of them to my husband so he can enjoy them too!! Your pics with this post are wonderful too,,,,, I look forward to what you will post next!Bonniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07706645752376386105noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-49341031810435532212014-11-09T11:58:33.867-05:002014-11-09T11:58:33.867-05:00Sarah, tears filled my eyes to learn that you'...Sarah, tears filled my eyes to learn that you'd finally done that toughest thing, saying goodbye to your faithful long-time companion. I'm so glad Mallory was able to spend some time with him at the end. And then...a moment later...you had me laughing out loud as you scouted the coffee shop for potential dates/mates for your daughter and discovered the big bad wolf bragging on his large teeth at the next table. Not to forget the photos - I especially liked the last one, the closeup of notebook, glass, and glasses. Love those little sparks of blue and green reflected light!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6346935990049787898.post-63504639517068195782014-11-09T11:08:10.375-05:002014-11-09T11:08:10.375-05:00Sarah, you have a quiet subtle humour in your chr...Sarah, you have a quiet subtle humour in your chronicles that I find delightful.
