At 11:47am on October 27, 2007, Kelly Alvarez Mace said…: Thank you! I think that this is a great community, and I really look forward to making some connections here. I love that everyone is so supportive, and it certainly helps on those funky days! I have to admit I have been feeling a bit frustrated lately...I guess it is a creative rut of sorts...but just seeing what others are doing is so inspirational and helps to lift my spirits and realize that I am doing the right thing and moving in the right direction. Sorry if that is TMI!
