Fortress Of Good Fortune

Thank you!

A very generous donor gifted me with DW points to allow me to access a big bunch of my icons again! The access will last through Valentine's Day, and expect to see Halloween and Christmas icons used, too, tee hee. Gotta use 'em while I can. I am SO HAPPY!!! :D

What a GREAT surprise this morning to receive a Paid Account notice in my Inbox for my Dreamwidth account. THANK YOU to the kind soul who gifted me with this. Halloween icons!!! Wheee!!! :)

*dances with joy*

Happy (early) Halloween!!! ;)

I'm so excited! After wrangling all morning with the hospital's financial office (and maybe getting a reduction in my bill), I see a notice in my inbox that the generous 020104isme gifted me with 6 months of a DW Paid Account! Thank you SO MUCH!!! *hugs*

Wow! I wake up this morning and an anonymous gifter has provided me with a paid account for a year on LJ! *squees*

That allows me 82 out of my 285 icons, too. Much better than 15! Though if anyone would like to help out with extra userpic packages, I have the space now ;)

But a HUGE THANK YOU to my anonymous gifter! I now have a few Halloween icons again! And can choose any layout I want. *hurries off to play*

You have made my day! :)

*BIG HUGS*

Argh! I'm reduced to only 15 icons on LJ now because I'm not a paid account. Been a long time since THAT was the case. So don't expect appropriate icons over there anymore. :(

Thanks to everyone who sent me gifts and greetings for my birthday! I'll post a more detailed list this weekend. :)

Good morning, my lovelies, and a BIG Thank You to catalenamara, a dear and generous friend who answered my plea for help with my extra userpics. You are a Peach Among Peaches, my dear! *hugs*

It's a very nice boost considering I've been under-the-weather all weekend, so I am extra happy that I can play with my icons. You guys are so generous! *wipes tear* Love you all, and especially Cat this morning! :)

As always, enjoy what you will from my posts. I am working on some new fanfic that you might like and am always interested in your posts. I have learned a lot about people on LJ and must say that my flist has quality people. :)

Have a good day, my friends! Happy Vernal Equinox! :)

Hi, luvs!

I just realized that it's close to my 10th anniversary here on LJ. I created this journal on October 24, 2006, made my first post on November 12th, and my first fic posting on November 21st (Announcement I: The Ready Room), introducing myself to the DC Comics community here on-line. Little did I know the friends I would make and the prolific writing in my future! Good times, good times. :)

I don't know if I'll come up with something for the anniversary, but I wanted to acknowledge it to all my friends here on my f-list, and who have stuck around when a lot of people took off for shinier baubles platforms. A big THANK YOU to all the people who have encouraged me during low points, celebrated with me in good times, and helped me with gifting me with paid accounts and extra icon userpics, which has really made life here more fun. :)

I've had a great time reading, writing, and hosting my Challenges over the years, too. The 2016 DCU Fic/Art Halloween Challenge is my next-to-last Challenge, as I'm seriously considering doing something special for Wonder Woman next year to commemorate her first ever live-action movie. That will be my grand final Challenge and how better to do it than with one of my all-time favorite characters? :) I'm pretty proud of the many Challenges I've hosted (Complete List here) and another big THANK YOU to all who contributed during these past ten years.

It's been a rainy morning with plenty of fog, but we need the rain after a summer of drought. The leaves are turning bright colors and my sister and I are going to the orchard tomorrow to get fresh apples (can't get any fresher!). Life is good. Enjoy your weekend, my friends! :)

Hi, luvs! What a GREAT birthday I had! Thanks SO MUCH for all the wonderful greetings and goodies! *dances* :)

It was a nice, quiet day. I’d already had My Special Day, courtesy of my sister, so quiet suited me just fine. :)

I received:

Wonderful Birthday Greetings from:

starsandsea, gilda_elise, northernwalker, paxwolf, phoenixnz (A Yummy Birthday Cake!), mithen, ctbn60, me_ya_ri, roxymissrose (Minions!), and ilovetobefree

Fantabulous Fic from:

A Field Of Poppies by mithen

Yellow Locks by starsandsea

THANK YOU to the anonymous donor who gifted me with all my extra userpics!!! *dances*

Thanks to all of you who listened to my moping and moaning about losing them. I know it's a small thing, and some might think it's stoopid, but we all have our quirks and this is one of mine. *hugs icons tight* I was pretty bummed with the loss of so many icons, particularly a bunch of Steve/Diana and Bruce/Dick lovelies, but so many more!

I TOTALLY appreciate this! What a great thing to cheer up a bleh Monday, though I admit a snowstorm the day after the first day of spring is pretty funny and very typical of New England! :)

I might even be inspired to do a little more fanficcing! :)

My f-list is THE BEST!!!
