Good morning everyone!! :D

Shauna,

I 2nd that !!! He has unbelievable talent Kim. Gotta work a couple of those into the "budget" !!! I'm having a hard time deciding on which to buy !!!

I forgot to post Craig's 1st adventure to Hershey Park last weekend.....it was a TRIP !!! My mistake in taking him on his FIRST roller coaster, ruined him for almost the entire day. He did "come back down to earth" and get on some others closer to the end of the day. All in all....great time had by all.

Have a great day! :)

Happy Wednesday!!! (Well.....I guess better late than never... :whistle: )

Been working ALL day on making Duane's website....I finally finished about 10 minutes ago........ :wacko:

I swear I thought I was going to kill him or divorce him today <_<:rolleyes: He was sitting behind me telling me what I needed to do and how to do it...I almost threw the computer at him!!! :P:whistle::wacko:

Anyhow......check it out if you have a chance and tell us what you think...we are hoping to get some hits and sales soon!!!!! Also...Duane named the website and you are going die when you hear what he named it!!

He named is "Embassy Art"........ :yes::yes::yes: How cute........

The website is: www.embassyart.homestead.com

Have a good night

Good morning ladies,

I love Duane's arts.

Belly's girl - hopefully he can get it all done :thumbs:.

paul and I 1 year December 7 ( hopefully he will be here :unsure: )

I do not wish to share any information about this dead end journey.........I have reached my final destination on this train, and it is time for me to get off.

THIS TOO SHALL PASS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

"If marriage means you fell in love, does divorce mean you climbed out?"

"You never really know a man until you have divorced him."-Zsa Zsa Gabor

"When a man hath taken a wife, and married her, and it come to pass that she find no favour in his eyes, because he hath found some uncleanness in her: then let him write her a bill of divorcement, and give it in her hand, and send her out of his house. And when she is departed out of his house, she may go and be another man's wife." Deuteronomy 24:1-2

"When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on." - Franklin D. Roosevelt

"When one door of happiness closes, another opens; but often we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us." - Helen Keller

"Even though you may want to move forward in your life, you may have one foot on the brakes. In order to be free, we must learn how to let go. Release the hurt. Release the fear. Refuse to entertain your old pain. The energy it takes to hang onto the past is holding you back from a new life. What is it you would let go of today?" - Mary Manin Morrissey

"I know God will not give me anything I can't handle. I just wish that He didn't trust me so much." - Mother Theresa

I know this is a stupid question but I'll ask anyway; if you send a photo can he recreate a painting on a shirt from it?

Yes, he can recreate just about anything you send him......it just amazes me!!!

I was just having a great time browsing Duane's website--what a rare talent. I'm sending the link to everyone I know.

Thanks Ann.....we appreciate all the support we can get!!

[Miss Kimmy!!! tell Duane...I WANT THEM ALL!!!!!!!! :D:D:P

I will let him know......he will be pleased that you like them.... (L)

[

...I saw something that I think I might want to put in my home office!

Tell us...we might be able to work something out for you with the $$$$$...after all you are yardies family!!!! Good luck to Gregory today!!!!

You did a GREAT job. I can't wait to show Roy when I get home. Duane is so wonderfully talented. I'm definitely a fan!!![/color]

Thanks Mindy..you are so sweet....You are making me blush... :blush::blush:

Hilarious!! But I love it! I am saving up to get something to surprise Henry for Christmas. I think it will make him happy and proud. Kim, put the link in all your email and forum signatures. Tell him I love the name Embassy Art - better than "Window #10 Art"!! :lol::hehe::whistle:

Great idea Elizabeth.... Yep...window #10 art would have been too much!!!! You silly gayl...... :lol::lol::lol:

He has unbelievable talent Kim. Gotta work a couple of those into the "budget" !!! I'm having a hard time deciding on which to buy !!!

Thanks Kelly.......you are so sweet....

Nice website and awesome paintings and shirts. I wish I could buy them all.

Does he have any on a smaller scale? i will keep checking your site.

Best wishes and much success!

Thanks Darlene and EVERYONE for all your support......Now you guys can see what Duane has been doing everyday with his time.....keeping busy for sure!!!

The smaller scale is the shirts......his paintings are just amazing in person and we realized that not everyone could afford them so he did some smaller scale work on shirts...those are absolutely beautiful in person too!!!! The pictures just do not do his work justice.....Plus...when he gets BIG and FAMOUS..people can say they have a Duane Pearson original and only paid $30.00 for it..... :lol::lol::lol::D:D

I asked this question a couple days ago, but noone responded.....so I'm just checking to see if anyone can give me any type of advice because I've searched and searched and couldn't find any answers....

Is there a "cutoff" date for the AOS paperwork? Like WHEN do you **have** to process the paperwork??? We met the "requirements" to get married, but when is the question.

Any help/advise is greatly appreciated !!

Well, I have some news...not necessarily good news, but not necessarily bad news either...Well, as I stated earlier this morning, Gregory & his mom rode to Kingston early this a.m. to drop off the DS-230, pick up his passport and try and get his police certificate...Well things DID NOT quite go as planned: While they were on their way to the Embassy this morning the driver HIT A MAN that had run out into the street (according to Gregory after talking to the guy, it was obvious that he was mentally ill). When they braked to keep from hitting the guy, the car behind them ran into them (not too much damage!) Anyway, by the time they got to the Embassy it was 10 minutes after 10, and the lady at the window informed him that the window closed at 10 am. :angry: She told him that he could leave it with someone orhe would have to come back tomorrow to drop it off. He told her that he was unable to drop it off because he had to work, but he asked if his mother could drop it off in the morning and she said YES!! His mom is staying in Kingston until Saturday so, she's supposed to go there tomorrow a.m. to drop it off. He left the papers to pick up his passport with his mom, as he had to go with the driver of the car to try and get it in some semblence of order so they could get back on the road... I talked to him a few minutes ago, and he let me know that she was able to pick up his passport. As for the police certificate, he said he was going back to get that next week, along with his marriage form. I don't know....At this point, I'm drained, irritated, and just want it all to be done! :(
