A huge thank-you shout out to Rajesh Pancholi of R27 Creative Lab for the amazing site design.
Also an enormously smothering hug to all the girls (and guys) who have already jumped down the rabbit hole, even before the clubhouse was here to catch them. We can't wait to play with you more and get in some serious trouble with you.

Love the quote. One should strive to believe impossible things daily. It brightens and broadens the mind and the spirt.
Cheers to the new site.

Seriously. I mean, c'mon now... how could we have ALL used the same quote in a 24 hour period. Get out of my head!!! I'm all over the place because it's late and I'm lightheaded from blowing up too many red balloons.
@r27, you are a rock star. And waaaay toooo good to us.
We're getting really good at this "doing-what-we've-never-done-before-thing" don't ya think? Sweaty palms are a sign that you're in the right place. Nothing one deep breath and some clasping hands of girl friends won't cure. ;)
Love you girls!!!

My excitement for the opening of the club-house leaves me speechless.
Well, almost. I DO have a quote from Alice to share...
Caterpillar: Who are YOU?
Alice: I -- I hardly know, sir, just at present -- at least I know who I was when I got up this morning, but I think I must have been changed several times since then.
Get ready, ladies to be changed back into all those things you dreamed you were when you were six years old. Together here at Looking Glass Lane we are going to become woman who SEEK and SEIZE impossible things.
Love you all!

Rock on!
Ok here's my "impossible" thing. I actually made a video vision statement of all the things I wanted to do, back in 2007, as though I were already doing them, and lo and behold almost every part of it has come true except the living in Florence part. That will happen too. Ok this is REALLY cheesy but here: http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=2854560...

Tina,
Just watched your video. I LOVE it. Not cheesy. At ALL. So glad you shared it with us all. That's what LookingGlassLane is for, a place to say it and let us help you to GET it. Big grin. My wheels are-a-spinning! We just have to find a Florentine sponsor. Morgan, I think we should look into this. Stat.

You are my new hero and welcome to The Lane, Tango Tina. Awesome stuff. When you put your dreams in front of you stare them down, believe me, they happen. No doubt you'll get to Firenze as well.
Thanks for being here with us.

In case I didn't tell you personally on Twitter, I just wanted you to know how touching your support of Morgan's wedding was. We had a great talk the night before about the amazing women we've met, each other included "out here."
Welcome to the Lane!

Sexy Thinker- I do believe you are a maven when it comes to inspiring those to start getting used to the feeling of “doing-what-we’ve-never-done-before-thing”.
Come hang with us more!

Tina- No kidding, I started making my own vision board tonight. I was doing it the Martha Stewart way-- you know, with magazines and scissors and glue, but I've had enough paper cuts (not use to umm,...real PAPER!) You inspired me to take my vision board digital. I will surely let all know when it is finished.
I am so happy you are here- and as I've mentioned to my pal's at the Looking Glass a few times, but a trip to Italy for all of us is definitely in order.
Muah! Baci!

Big smile to see you here!
And Yes, I must just tell the world AGAIN how humbled I was by you sending your wedding dress to me (and that football for Lucca- so awesome).
I want another wedding-- maybe one every year so I can where your dress in honor of how magical twitter friendships and women supporting women can be!

Missive,
Have I told you lately what an incredible host you make!? I see you there across the room in this in-the-making clubhouse of ours and you are just one big beam of light.
How lucky all of us women to have you greeting us at the door.

Photostory for Windows is really good if you guys want to make vision statements like that.
For Mac, there is also a really good software but I can't remember what it's called :-(
Tina, LOVED that video. How cool is this? We're gonna get culture from our traveling girls. More. Please.

Wohoo! Great clubhouse, ladies!
Yup. I also believe dreams can be reached by doing things honestly and passionately.... if you can surround yourself with the right resources.... with the right tools.... and a good support system, online or otherwise.
All too often we're surrounded by naysayers, and it's very important to focus on how it CAN be done, by listening to those who are already doing it. Mentors.
Believing you can, despite what others say, means you *can* do what seemed impossible! I have. Friends have. Go girls!

@Roam2Rome
I popped over to your site. Awesome. Love the 20/80 post. Unfortunately never manage to stick to it, but wholly believe it. So glad to have you. As I said to Tina, can't wait to get some great culture via our world travelers. Have you met @MorganDayCecil ? She's our lover of all things Italian.
Welcome to the clubhouse, Jen

Hey ladies,
I find that I complete impossible tasks every day. Like my current one of obtaining my UK passport so I can move to Italy more easily. And like my gal pal, Tina, I too have a vision statement....
Love the idea, love the thought, love the energy....
a presto :)

Katie,
Again, amazed that you girls have done these. I'm reading through the comments of all the girls who've posted here and can't believe the caliber of imaginations and determinations we have here. I'm geeked. And btw, you had me at "I drink wine in excess!" Off to that now.

Have I told you all lately how much I love your effing guts?! Cause its alot:) I say this alot but you ladies are truely an inspiration to a lippy lil punk rockstar momma who hit rock bottom and swore Id never ever see the light of happiness ever again....ever. Its only because you dared me to dream, nudged me down this hole (hehehe) and then welcomed me into the posse and showed me that possibilities are endless...that I now actually BELIEVE that not only are the possiblilties endless....but ima rock the shit outta any and all endeavours I meet.
Thank you ladies....
