The core concept ...Hi, Pop Art--Thanks for sharing! The core concept of this article is that much counseling in the world takes place outside the offices of counseling professionals. Friends and moms are in a class all their own in this regard, and I'm so glad you brought them up! There's nothing more valuable than a compassionate ear and loving concern. That's all a person usually needs to figure things out from there. Glad to be in your "network" and to have you in mine.Joyce Masonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13462878902674014180noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3883517659006855297.post-18498393103938377762010-08-02T09:14:14.648-07:002010-08-02T09:14:14.648-07:00Hi, Eileen!

(You can still get a cool mill even in the current economy!)

Since I have had limited contact with bartenders and baristas, I'd like to leave my comment about beauticians.<br />Hair dressing comprises so many facets: the creativity of an artist, the willing ear of a therapist, the stamina of an athlete, and much, much more. I consider them miracle workers. There's no greater high than walking out of the hair salon, having just purged your soul and feeling great, and looking like a million bucks to boot! A great big hurray for the masters and mistresses of hair and heart--we LOVE YOU!Eileen Williamshttp://feistysideoffifty.com/noreply@blogger.com
