Should We Be Worried About Thom Courcelle ...

that he created so many trashbooks in one week?One has to wonder, is it possible he is turning COB: compulsive obsessive boo? (I mean that in the best possible way, Thom.) This has been here for a little while, and whenever I'd be about to blog it, someone else would blog theirs. So we have seen several different ones, all wonderful. Above is the cover, and also the front of the envelope because Thom is another one (of many) for whom the envelope itself is a canvas of sorts. I always love them, and I love this trashbook. Just one inside page will appear below, though all are more than worthy. For example, I did also especially like the Ticketmaster envelope with buttermilk waffles inside. But this one speaks to our common love of music, so it must be seen: Thank you so much, Thom!

Awwww!!!  No WAY, Cheryl!!  No wonder people want to break into museums and steal your art books!!--even your Trashbooks are to die for!!!!!  Wish you could hear my laughter as I read your book's prescription to "Quit whining!" Ha, hA, Ha!

Laughing out loud here, Cheryl. See, and the trashpo honcho has pronounced it as having the look of a trashbook. I as an avid fan of her concept agree with her. You're on your way. I love your list of criteria! Especially "reject art." But I'll have you know

Thank you Thom--Louise' zombie kitty is a great character and definately cheered me up.  

Catherine-Thom has set the bar high being so speedy on making trashbooks, even though we hope it never happens that way again.

Here is a trash kitty ala Louise Kiner for you, Diane.  Hope this helps alleviate some of your withdrawal!

I am low on trash, although I'm not in a full blown depressive state --not yet. I think the only treatment is hoarding cats

Moi aussi.

And that's a helpful diagnosis--lets us know what direction to go in for help. Diane, are you low already? (I mean in stock, ha.)

I think a new diagnosis has made its' presence known--trashpo bi-polar disorder in which the person goes into a trashpo making mania soon followed by a depressionistic phase when they run out of trash. I know I am seeking treatment for this------more trash!!!!!!!

Cheryl==I desperately want to see your trashbook. can you post a sneak peek?

Thom--glad your tooth is all better
