Lorraine means.....collage


I did this page for an a-z journal that I am taking part on Alternative. It was my turn to suggest J is for journalling but I did not want scrapbooky type stuff but more of a playing with words cutting them up etc. I found the meaning of my name on www.blogthings.com which gives you the meaning of your name. Of course it just generalises and you choose what fits you at the time!! but I was surprised that it came up with a couple of truths about me and I have put these phrases on to this collage. You probably cant see the phrases so they are: 1. youre always up to something 2.you are relaxed, chill and very likely to go with the flow (yes! after I have had a glass of wine and the kids are in bed!!), 3.at times you can be a little flaky and irresponsible 4. you also have a very active imagination 4.you often get carried away with your thoughts 5.you are wild, crazy and a huge rebel(I suppose I was when I was younger!!) 6.you have a lot of enthusiasm but it fades rather quickly and 7. you dont stick with any one thing for very long. I think these phrases would be good to make into one of those "books of me" which I often find rather self-analytical and indulgent but think I will make mine a funny one as life is too short for therapy!!
