saeed from ahwaz, Iran
such a nice and big world!
specially that books! each one is a world,isn't it?
1 May 2008 5:41am
@saeed: Yes, yes yes I LOVE books, so my world is first and foremost my son, to the right on the wall, then photography, writing, reading...my passions, always, so i took a photo...
The Question of the day is HOW are you getting into AMinus 3, all the sites I visit say REJUVENATION including mine, I got in the back way, you know through the admin section
Michael Rawluk from Prince George, Canada
That is a nice little glimpse. I should shoot my Hobbit Hole. I am packing so that I can move. It is a horrible mess.
1 May 2008 5:41am
@Michael Rawluk: I adore moving, but I'm too broke, so that's why I re-organize everything in my house every now and then ;) please I'd love to see all my visitors 'World'
Stunner from Kingston, Jamaica
Interesting so far, books, woodcraft and of course photographs.
1 May 2008 6:01am
@Stunner: All that and oh so much more, okay just one: writing ;)
How are you getting into Aminus, I can't!!!
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
A simple but touching collection of memories and books. Lovely and heartwarming, Lorraine.
1 May 2008 6:55am
@Michael Skorulski: Thanks so much Michael, it is truly my world, plus writing :) oh also, how did YOU get into Aminus3...I'm assuming that those that broke through aren't with IE browser?
@Alun Lambert: Thanks a lot Alun :)
@Betty: Thanks so much Betty :)
Craig from Vacaville, California, United States
Very interesting little world you got there! I'm afraid my world isn't as organized! What kind of a printer do you have?
1 May 2008 11:23am
@Craig: Craig, do you think I'd show you My Mess? You have no idea...this is the only 'organized' semi-clean place in my two level rented falling down house ;) lol
The Printer is : Hewlett Packard Deskjet 970 CXI Professional Series; Got it for $ 10.00 at a garage sale...It's great, ok it's not perfect, if you get close you see those darned not quite invisible ink jet lines, but you know from a few feet away, they're magnificent, and you know my eyesight and all is shot to hell anyway lol
Michael Skorulski from Cigel, Slovakia
Hi Lorraine. To answer your question, I use Firefox rather than IE.
Michael

@Michael Skorulski: That explains it lol thanks a lot Michael, for all the other I can't VISIT TODAY, sorry, see 'ya soon ;)
Viewfinder from Bradenton, United States
Nice piece of your world Lorraine; looks like it's quite orderly. Did you dust and tidy up just for us? Heh...
1 May 2008 12:18pm
@Viewfinder: Well....yeah!!!! If you only knew what a slob I am, not a very attractive feature, hum LOL thanks Vf
MJ from Delaware, United States
nice peek into who you are or is that who you want us to think you are..... Lovely photo of son...I would have to work real hard to get a clean corner....
1 May 2008 12:41pm
@MJ: It's exactly who I am, expect for the orderly, well placed, clean musty, dirt-free corner...grin...se you soon I can't get into your site, sorry!
Cheryl from Boerne, United States
I'd like to see more of that fall colour scene on your wall! interesting how one image can tell so much!! Thanks for sharing.
1 May 2008 12:43pm
@Cheryl: hey Thanks Cheryl, this is the second time you visit me, that warrants a visit, well I'll try anyway, ps I was so sure I had posted that previously, but I can't find it, so look for tomorrow's ;)
Koushiro~光子郎 from Singapore, Singapore
Ahaha Nice 'world' there! I just unpacked mine ^^ Renovated and added many cupboards so i can hide stuff. Love the photos on the wall there I'll be glad to share my world with you, once i take it.
1 May 2008 12:53pm
@Koushiro~光子郎: Thanks a lot Koushiro, looking forward to seeing yours...if I can ever get into AMinus 3 again!
Janice Thomson from Canada
Like how you showed this part of you in one concise area. What a neat idea! Love this photo mon amie.
1 May 2008 1:00pm
@Janice Thomson: Merci ma chère amie, tomorrow is a re-run 'cause it's on the wall and I was so sure I had posted it before....must have been way before ;)
GJC from Kyoto, Japan
Hey, I like this idea. We should all post a similar kind of image. I'll work on one, too. So how do you have time for photography after reading those long books? I'm impressed. Thanks for sharing.
1 May 2008 2:02pm
@GJC: I'd like that very much GJC, I'm retired, I have time ;)
@Daroru: thanks a lot Daroru, I appreciate it :)
MaryB from Staffordshire, United Kingdom
This is fabulous Lorraine, such a brilliant idea too. It would mean me having to do a mini spring clean, I'm certainly not a "domestic Godess" lol :) but I'm up for the challenge.
No probs getting on AM3 here, hope it sorts itself out for you hun :)
1 May 2008 2:43pm
@MaryB: Gosh I can't even think along the lines of domestic, I'm awful, I'll get so motivated in re-organizing and decorating and changing furniture, but cleaning? doing dishes? when I run out I do it ;) and thanks so much, I'm looking forward to yours, I hope it clears up too, because it's a pain, for example I can't go into yesterday's at all to finish answering comments (I was suddenly cut off then)
@laughingwolf: At the bottom, 'cause of its manuscript form you know? lol
Hans from Heiligeneich, Austria
thanks fot the view to your world....love the pics on the wall
1 May 2008 3:23pm
@Hans: Thanks a lot Hans, you'll see the Fall one tomorrow :) as requested by Cheryl :)
@yiannis krikis: Thanks Yiannis, i appreciate it :)
Marion from Nanaimo, BC, Canada
First of all your son is a very good looking young man, says this grandmother of two boys older than he is and I like your pictures and it is kind of nice seeing into the lives of our Am3 friends. Great photo Lorraine.
1 May 2008 4:40pm
@Marion: Thanks a lot Marion, I'm glad you appreciated the only clean spot in my house lol
Observing from Chester, United Kingdom
A nice personal touch Lorraine, one of these day's I'll get round to putting some photos on the wall.
1 May 2008 7:10pm
@Observing: Put your own up, it's so much better then photograph it and post it lol thanks a lot Mike :)
standley from Brou-sur-Chantereine, France
Sympa de dévoiler ainsi ton intérieur Lorraine! Des livres, des photos et un bien beau garçon!
1 May 2008 8:30pm
@standley: Merci beaucoup Richard, c'est ce que j'aime le plus au monde, bien sur lol
Judy from Brooksville-Florida,, United States
This is a wonderful glimpse into 'your world'. I went to your profile to see if that gorgeous Daisy was there ... I just love the simplicity of a Daisy.
1 May 2008 9:43pm
@Judy: It's gorgeous isn't it...thanks a lot Judy :)
Ian Bramham from Manchester, United Kingdom
Great idea Lorraine...I'm sure there's a few photos there that you haven't shown us yet. I really like the one of the daisy above the vase!
1 May 2008 10:21pm
@Ian Bramham: Thanks so much Ian, the Daisy as been up, the fall one though I thought I had but didn't so I posted it for tomorrow which is now today....lol still having trouble with Am3
Ron from Saint Louis, United States
When do you find time to read, Lorraine?!?! I like that you've given us a little glimpse into your private world...sweet shot!
1 May 2008 10:55pm
@Ron: Hey Ron, I'm retired, lots of time to to nothing, thank God lol ;)
amy from Rocky Mountain House, Canada
Great insight into your world Lorraine! And I have read most of the books you have there as well!! LOL No probs with Am3... but I'm using FireFox now as well.
2 May 2008 12:42am
@amy: that must be why I'm still with Internet Explorer, what can I say why computer acts up badly if I use Firefox...??? don't know why. Thanks a Lot Amy!
Koushiro~光子郎 from Singapore, Singapore
Eh.... what do you mean by if you can get into aminus3 again?
2 May 2008 5:31am
@Koushiro~光子郎: I can't, I have to go through admin to post or look at comments, and the weird thing is that there are only 2 blogs I can't get into, YOURS and MINE, what's up with that?
Illuci from Hurdegaryp, Netherlands
Thanks for this glimpse, you are identified as someone who is addicted to photos and reading :)
2 May 2008 12:25pm
@Illuci: Hey HiErik, I can live with that, and thanks for your comment on my previous post, which unfortunately I can't access??? that's when Am3 kicked me out :)
Koushiro~光子郎 from Singapore, Singapore
Oh man... that reeks.... why me?! Anyway, good luck trying to get back into Aminus3! Try asking the admins?
3 May 2008 12:19am
@Koushiro~光子郎: yeah really, I can't even access my previous photo??? or get in, but I can sneak through, well hopefully it'll fix itself as it usually does ;)
drphoto from Newcastle upon Tyne, United Kingdom
Such an expansive world communicated in such a small space!

4 May 2008 4:21pm
@drphoto: Thanks a lot Dan, it's already changed, but hey that's life, how nice to see you, glad you visited 'cause I'm in the processed of changing to Mozilla Firefox, so I can save the blogger I visit as I go instead of transferring :)
Japanalia from Yokohama, Japan
I'm glad we share the same love for photos and reading!!! I like this glimpse into your world! I also put my shots on the wall.........I used to actually wallpaper one wall in my bedroom with photos!And.....that wall became so lively and breathing, that I got insomnia! So I had to drastically reduce the presense of photos in my sanctuary.....and now I can sleep ( of course, with a little help from a bit of a sleeping pill).
5 May 2008 4:12pm
@Japanalia: lol Don't I know it, passions can keep us awake, thanks so much, my poison is sinus medicine, it clears my sinus and puts me down 12 hours, well you know you do what you can :)
[terrorkitten] from Bath, United Kingdom
Now sweet pea you have always tried to tell me how untidy you are and then you present me with the tidiest corner I have ever seen...are you hiding a dark cleaning fetish!
