About Me
- Patty
- My name is Patty. Welcome to my blog. I am a long time fan of Rosie O'Donnell. After 20 years of working as a dental assistant/X-Ray technician, I decided to change the course of my life. I returned to school and now I am a (Pivot Point trained) registered cosmetologist. I enjoy my chosen profession and love creating new, cutting edge styles. My specialty is color techniques and advanced skin care. I also make beautiful Fitness Hoops and love to introduce others to hooping. I'm an Etsy Entrepreneur and am loving it. I believe if you find something that you love to do, it isn't work....it's a pleasure. Thanks for visiting and please leave a comment on my blog even if it's just to let me know you dropped by!
Thank you, San

Thank You EZ. As I told you, the personal images are from my Mom's funeral. The video moves on to pain and sorrow around the world...then ends with a message of Hope.
I still can't believe Rosie might have viewed my video. I'm walking on sunshine!

Patty, this is heart-wrenching and beautiful. A montage which clearly depicts the universal nature of suffering. And that stone with the message of Hope, that gorgeous rose remind us to work for a better day.
Well-done! I hope many people view your video.
I've tagged you over at my place for a frivolous meme.
Patty this is amazing and sad all in one. You did a great job.
Came here from San Merideth's wonderful blog.
Yes, you're right. So right.
It's the ``tears of the clown'' syndrome.
San, thank you for seeing what I was trying to show with the video. Your encouragement is always appreciated.
I'll let you know when I've completed my meme. This should be fun...and revealing.
