Guest GryffinSong Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Hi all, I've had a really rough couple of years, and was not online much at all. During that time my membership either expired or I forgot how to log in. I used to be GreyhoundMama. I'm an artist, have spent the last five years living/traveling in my RV, and the last year battling breast cancer. I have a retired greyhound named Gryffin, who is now over ten years old. I've just moved into a home in Maryland, and share five Italian greyhounds with my mom. The weather is a lot milder here than in Washington state, where I've camped for the last two years. Although today we had a blizzard and have about two feet of snow on the ground. None of our IGs will go out, and even Gryffin wanted a shoveled area before he'd venture out! LOL It's good to be back in a house. It's good to be done with cancer treatments. It's good to be back online. And it's greyt to be back here. I look forward to seeing old and new faces here.

Guest GryffinSong Posted December 20, 2009 Share Posted December 20, 2009 Thanks for the warm welcome! Yes, I'm the one with the t-shirts and other things with my artwork on them. I did Dewey a couple of times, and then found the commute from Washington state to be prohibitive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greypuppyluv Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 Welcome back Karen! I've wondered how you've been doing and was hoping you were winning your battle with your breast cancer. Good to hear you're getting settled into a house.

Guest greytloves Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 We have all wondered how you were doing! A few months ago we had a thread going on where some members had gone to and I remember you were mentioned more than once! When I saw your painting in your picture I instantly knew you were back! We love your work! So glad to see you back here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest widowcali Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 I love your work. I met you in Solvang, at the first one I went to (the last year they allowed pets and vending at Royal Scandinavian). I still have the sweatshirt and magnets that I bought from you. Hopefully you will feel up to vending at Solvang, or even Kanab, soon. I really loved your stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iluvgreys Posted December 28, 2009 Share Posted December 28, 2009 Welcome back, Karen! I remember we chatted a bit about your RV experiences, before I went out and bought one to live in. Your advice helped give me courage to pursue my dreams.

ozgirl2 Posted January 5, 2010 Share Posted January 5, 2010 Welcome back, Karen!!! We were all thinking about you! I can't tell you how many people asked me where you were this year at Dewey - I was wearing my t's by you and many people wanted one!! Want to get together for lunch soon? I'd love to see you and the pups! Just PM me here or email me at codyozbrindle at yahoo dot com... Great to have you back here!!

Guest GryffinSong Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 Wow, lots more warm welcomes!!! You guys so totally ROCK!!! I'm loving being back in Maryland, and am making major progress on my studio renovation. I hope to start some new work within a week or so. I do hope that I can do Dewey or GIG or some of the other east coast events again. I kept getting snowed in in the Spokane, WA area, so finally gave up on even trying. For those of you who have my work, THANKS for the lovely compliments!!! I'm so pleased that you like them!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
