Flannel Friday is the Creative Trust

Date: very late Thursday night
Weather: Cold and snowy
 Playlist: old Beatles songs



Dear Diary, (this is going to be a long one tonight)

Today at 5:30, I filed some papers away, straightened my desk and while turning off my computer...I think I saw F.F.  Yes, that F.F. !!!!  The computer clicked off and I just wasn't sure.  My heart raced as I slipped into my coat and ran out the door.  I know I write endlessly about  F.F. We've been together a year now.  Can you even believe it?  I know, I KNOW.  It's the best, it is.  Believe me, I know.

But there's a prob.  F.F. wants me to come clean...you know...take it to another level.  What does F.F. mean to me?  I'm not really sure what to say.  There are days when I am content to bring F.F. up on my computer and just gaze. *wonderful*  F.F. completes me!

Trite? right?  I can't say that. Stealing movie lines, pathetic.  Really one of the things I adore about F.F. is the freedom to be creative.  We have this climate of creativity that is so trusting.  Honestly, you know that's hard to find in a relationship.  OMG, is this a relationship?  Yes it is, a professional one - we're keeping it Professional, it's something special. Unique. Fun. Caring. (and more)

I feel so safe with F.F.  Sometimes I can say something and F.F. really "gets me" and offers all this support and encouragement.  I've learned so much from F.F.  I can take a risk, a creative risk and  maybe it's just me...but I think I benefit and F.F. does too.  That's cool, right?  And you know, some days F.F. says something and it's like WHAAAAH..Peter Max brain explosion - so innovative!  And I just have to try it too,  maybe tweak it a little.  I get so many great ideas from F.F.  We're on the same team and I like that.


When I have a bad day, no mojo or I don't know the words to any cool songs - I just visit F.F, and well, what can I say?  I feel so much better.  Diary, did I tell you that F.F. started a Pinterest page?  OUR very  best work *sigh* ever!

You know,  I've grown over this past year and F.F, has too.  We're good together.  I mean, for me, just knowing F.F. makes me better at my job and pretty much better all around.  So, how do I say all this to F.F.?  I could just leave my diary open tonight..it's late *yawn*  I am very tired.

So if you're reading this F.F. - NBD.  We're not any big experts that consult the powers that be, we're not the Brain Trust...but I've got to say...we are the Creative Trust.  And in my opinion, that's brilliant!

G'nite and um...Thanks.  You're the best.  And FYI - you came around just when I needed you.

Today's post is for the 2nd anniversary of Flannel Friday.  My own silly way to show my appreciation for the amazing supportive group I am honored to be a part of.  Cheers for two years!  Fun assignment!

This is indeed a post without Piper.  Hopefully she'll make the birthday celebration next week.  Yippee!
