Pink Fregia I usually write in PINK but.....since we are doing rainbow colors....I am orange. ROYGBEV? is the pattern?
Why yes, that's the foundation of the pattern, however, with all colors available among our font choices, we can lengthen the spectrum!
saddlebrown RED darkORANGE YELLOW (orange) limeGREEN turquoise dodgerBLUE blue INDIGO VIOLET pink
No matter what color is squeezed into the mix, there's a color we can use to keep the cycle going! The thread was created as a general chat thread, just with an optional twist for aesthetics. If you'd like to participate in the forum decoration, click the color as you did in the font editor and where you see the bracketed text, replace the color (like "orange" that popped up when you clicked the orange button with the color of your choice. Granted, some words aren't a code, but trial and error never killed anyone in a forum!

Different...Very. JoyRose Different...Very. JoyRose Sounds lucrative - good luck! Stay safe! Looks like we're coming up to another Halloween. I know what I want to do, but I need more support and funds... It will take a year or more to cultivate Ah well, that's certainly taking a long view - good luck! Yeah, a lot of my ideas flop, and I think it's because I don't think about just how much planning and finalizing is required to really bring ideas to fruition Yes, planning is a pretty necessary step. My daughter has a friend who is truly terrible at the planning part - great ideas, no preparation - and it frustrated her for a while because she didn't realize at first that failing to plan would likely hamstring the whole idea. Now she just nods and smiles when that friend talks about the future.

If I don't immediately get some sort of physical support, my idea would fade away in about a week lol What's the biggest real life project you thought of and brought to life? [children not included lol]

[children not included lol] When my daughter was young, my big project every year was a trip somewhere with her. We visited Niagara Falls, New York City, the Grand Canyon, Mount Rushmore, Disney World, and various other destinations near and far, and those took a lot of planning. Now I'm just hoping to get her through college and save for my retirement. lol

I can never make up my mind when to set a vacation. My mom would do that, too. Like, she got us all tickets for a cruise to Cozumel for no reason.

JoyRose Different...Very. JoyRose Different...Very. That's awesome! How did you choose when to do it? Did you go at the beginning of summer? Winter? End of summer? I can never make up my mind when to set a vacation. My mom would do that, too. Like, she got us all tickets for a cruise to Cozumel for no reason. I went around other things we wanted to do during the summer, or at times that coincided with visiting my mother-in-law. I'd start the planning months in advance so by the time we went, almost everything went very smoothly (no plan executes completely as planned). Overall, I'd say my daughter had a rich and fun childhood (she's 18 now, childhood is pretty much over). We are taking one last trip around Christmas and I think that may well be our last one as a family. But who knows, only time will tell for sure. Winter weather or tropical climate? Well, I prefer tropical weather, but generally can't afford those trips! So I settle for national parks and fun spots like amusement parks. But some day I'm going to take a cruise! We took a lovely Carnival Cruise to Jamaica one winter. A trip to Disney World or Disney Land wouldn't do the trick? xD

But it wasn't the same as a cruise. That's for another year (probably after my daughter has graduated from college).
