Thursday Journal with Neet

 I am unable to comment on some blogs and I seem unable to rectify this at the moment, so I am not ignoring some of you. I think Elizabeth is having the same problem.

A penny for your thoughts seems a little pricey are the Tim Holtz snarky words for this week. I have used some collage on the background so I can link this to Bluebeard and Elizabeths theme of collage/ food and drink on Art Journal Journey.

Astrid and her cousin Glenys are having an in depth discussion about politics, the state of the world and men. After a while Glenys sat on the floor and went very quiet. She had recently had huge a problem with her latest boyfriend, but had kept the knowledge from her cousin. It hadn't been a very good experience and she really didn't want to let Astrid know what an idiot she had been. She really should have looked more into his background. After four months of seeing him regularly, Glenys had found out he was married with two small children. She was absolutely mortified and couldn't cope with telling anyone, especially family. She knew her parents and cousin would get mad with her, so she just sat quietly thinking about it. Astrid was getting somewhat impatient with her silence on the subject of men as she wanted to hear all about Glenys’s new boyfriend, and was beginning to think perhaps it wasn't worth listening to. The only thing that came into her head was to say to Glenys "A penny for your thoughts seems a little pricey at the moment"

Oh boyfriends. That is one thing I don't miss about being younger, the dating scene. Although I do know several people in my age area that are still in it, so age really isn't the thing, is it? This is another super page for B&E's AJJ challenge for certain. Thanks so much for joining us. It is always appreciated, Wendy. I hope you get your comment situation fixed. hugs-Erika

What a great story. Yes, it's not easy Your collage is very well illustrated, I love the way you play with the characters and background! I hope it gets better soon, I already had that with the comments.
Have a nice day, hugs Elke

Sorry am full of a head cold and sore throat so am late visiting.
Hugs, Neet xx

I really like the art you created, Wendy! Yes, I think we have all been through that with a terrible boyfriend (or two!) that we didn't wish to talk about. Thanks for sharing! Hugs, Sharon

I so love this art. You are so very talented. When I have trouble commenting I change browsers and that seems to fix it.
