Day 19- Nicknames you have; why do you have them

Good day to you all! It's Rere here (or 'Aunty' Rere to those under 5yrs of age), and I've hijacked Denita's Blog for this day... SHHHHhhhhhhhhh... no passwords have been exchanged in this process... Denita's nicknames - hmmm, where does one start? 
  1. Her and her husband call each other "Humma", as in "Humma, sexy mamma"... 
  2. "Dee", as in the letter D..
  3. "DeeDee" - Her Gran was the only one who was allowed to call her that..
  4. "Nita" - A name the kids call her because they cannot pronounce "Denita"...
  5. "Dino" - A much hated one from her childhood (Sorry Caroline!)..
  6. "Mamma", "mama Dee" or "Mummeee" - Ever since wee Maddy Muddy Pants has been born (actually even when she was pregnant!)..
  7. "Mrs Damage" - married to "Major Damage"...
  8. "DenitaMAd" - She lived in Madeline Ave.. A.K.A Mad Ave.....! and just on the sly.. she is lovingly MAD!
  9. "Creeps like Moss" - Her Indian name.. She moved into one of four parts of a building and ended up taking over three parts...!
  10. Most important - "Mama"...... The name Miss Maddy calls her..
  11. "Bungy" - A nickname her dad gave her as a wee one..
  12. "Babe" - A term of endearment from her gracious husband... Awwwww...!
  13. "Miss Dee" - A term of endearment from me..... mille bacci!
  14. And one of her mates used to call her "A pain in his arse.." - Crikey!
  15. "Mrs T" - Shaughan's Dad calls her this.
Just quickly: I've been watching Denita and her gorgeous wee one pottering around in the kitchen this morning - So, so, so alike!

Thanks Miss Paula Ann without an E - author of arohateacher.blogspot.com and beautiful friend x x x

What a day we had yesterday it was visitor after visitor - I LOVED IT!!

We got given a crayfish and it was the yummiest cray I have ever eaten! Shaughan was lucky that I didn't eat it all!

I uploaded the new version of Skype yesterday and found out that you can video conference call! I'm so happy that this is here, just in time for my online marketing salon. It will bring the artists together just as I imagined. Thank you Skype.


I did a little bit more on my painting

11 RULES FOR LIFE ONE - Give people more than they expect and do it cheerfully. TWO - Marry a man/woman you love to talk to.

I Wanted to Be an Artist, So I Quit My Job and Became One

I had to share this article with you today, if I wrote something like this it would sound just the same... I Wanted to Be an Artist, So I Quit My Job and Became One by Christopher Fife. "Hi, I'm Christopher. I'm an artist." Exhale, run my fingers through my hair. "What do I do? Oh, I paint. I'm a painter. Yeah, I'm an artist." I tried it out every now and then, in front of the bathroom mirror. It sounded all right. But when I introduced myself as an artist outside my bathroom world of make-believe, I always felt false. I was like Magritte labeling a pipe. If I said I was an artist, I was an artist, right? Not exactly. Since I dedicated forty-plus hours a week to my corporate graphic design job, I was lucky if I painted a couple of hours a week. I came to despise myself for this self-deceit, for my inability to embrace what I really wanted to be. I wanted to be an artist. So I committed myself to becoming one. I started out like most people ...
