Description
The Girls' sign says it all.
I wanted to do a special dedication for all my pals here at Renderosity. Thank you all so much for your awesome support over the years! And especially now as I continue to work my way through this stubborn bout of depression. As the song by the late John Denver says:
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
Sometimes the hard times won't leave me alone
Sometimes a cold wind blows a chill in my bones
Some days are diamonds, some days are stones
And so they are. Today is a stone day, yesterday was diamond. Hopefully the diamonds will soon outnumber the stones by a wider margin. I am determined to make it so - and with the encouragement and support I've received from you all, I'll kick it's butt! Guaranteed.
We're looking into a number of alternatives with getting out of this house / area ASAP. They found a guy DOA on the sidewalk less than a mile from our house yesterday. He had several bullet holes in him. Independence used to be a decent place to live - not so much now.
Anyway, we may be looking into some of the 'retirement communities' around the area. Right now the idea of someone else doing all the yard work and maintenance sound pretty good to both Jo and me. Neither one of us is getting any younger.
And yes, I am still working on the next TNA page. It's been a slow process, but it will be done soon, I promise!
Again, THANK YOU for all your awesome support!

Great work... the girls looking good!
I do hope things go well for you, and Have a good one!
Nice looking gals. Excellent job! Your creations give you something to focus on and hopefully will help in distracting you from your depression. Keep up the good work and hope you get to feeling better soon.
Great composition. Beautiful image with these three girls. I wish you to get out of your depression as soon as possible. Happy weekend RodS 🙋♂️👍
Fantastic work, and it's great to hear that you are having diamond days. Keep trusting that there will be more and more of those. You have my prayers, my friend.
I'm glad you're getting some diamonds... I hope the stones grow easier to bare. I'm sorry your town has fallen on such hard times... I hope you find a way to move somewhere safer.
Fantastic and beautiful composition! Having a plan for the future can make a big difference in your happiness. I appreciate you and wish you both all the best!
Either way... You Rock!
Excellent work my friend
"Guys 'n' Gals Rock!" on a granite sign... I see what you did there, Rod! XD
Thanks for sharing such a lovely sentiment. I hope you search for a better living situation works out and that you will feel better. <3

As long as you get a good retirement place you'll be quids in Rod. Especially if all the yard work is done for you! Keep smiling Sir!
jokingly some times we feel like a nut and other we don't. hope your doing better Rod. your gals sure give the impression you do. maybe get stoned on a stone day? could not believe he nearly foot of snow in some places of our city. think i had 8 inches on the yard. streets were mostly clear. we got hit last night.
Wonderful art!
Cool scene...great characters...wishing you all the best on every level...Some days are diamonds, some days are stones...but not forever...soon every day will be a diamond...!!
A very special feel to this artwork today, Rod! And a special appreciation for your descriptive! I know you will get through the fog and come out into a much better place! I'm counting on that for you, Rod! Thanks for keeping us in the loop an also for sharing your magnificent talents with us here! Many fine kudos and praises from me all the time, my friend!
Let's hope you get out of there soon. I've lived in some rough places in my younger days, so I know how you feel with the crime. Everything seems to be falling apart.
Thank's, buddy we know that already!😊
Well that's also a great scene, looks fantastic, hope you have a great weekend and I wish you a good start for the new week, take care and stay healthy!
Sending lots of strength your way, Rod. May your diamond days vastly outnumber the stone. I hope you can find a nice place to live where you guys can feel safe and comfortable.
I agree : Cool scene...great characters...wishing you all the best on every level...Some days are diamonds, some days are stones...but not forever...soon every day will be a diamond...!!
Hooray!!! More diamonds!! You will be fine, Rod! You are a Diamond!
The hottest gurls I've seen lately. A most amazing awesome, most dear and beautiful composition, glamorous hot, brilliant awesome render. Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it! Luv ya!!!😊💖🥰
You are definitely a blissful Diamond, my dear Rod!
So are you Rod! Keep on rocking!
Great pic, and excellent lyric to go with it. Here's to the diamonds!
god, have I really been gone that long? I've missed 3 of your images? I saw them, but I didn't comment...ok, to catch up...First, I hope that Jo's brother is ok, and doing better...I"m very sorry that happened in addition to everything else. I hope he's recovering fully. Second, you can see how loved you are by all the people rooting for you! I hope your thoughts of leaving---for a possible retirement community---works out as fully as it can, and with as little struggle as possible. At our age (I'm 73), not doing everything oneself is a boon...true, we wanna keep active, but SOME active is a pain in the butt. Having others do that stuff can be a real plus...Plus, you've done 20 people's share in the last several years, so you deserve a break! I wish you everything in the world with moving.
Re the image: I love the juxtaposition of that slab of rocks (looks like a photo of a beach), held up by 3 of your best heroines. Your background fits the 'stone' theme perfectly (a really cool looking park area...with rusticated stone!) I love the outfits, and the great mix of colors; and you mix model and photo really well, Rod; it illustrates your text beautifully. A beautiful job; you used the front of your photo perfectly for your 3 stars. A beautiful thank you, but you deserve the love you've gotten.
And thank you so much, once again, for your wonderful comments, Rod: They are so kind and caring, and I appreciate every one. They're a great gift...thank you.
Prayers as you continue your journey thru recovery
I feel it for you. Jeez, I must live in your hood. Same thing here. A dead banger on the corner of my street 3 weeks back. About 2 blocks from here.
You hang in there and try to keep it all screwed together as best you can ....
Great work on this render, my friend. Really sorry to hear of your woes. Hope all is better now.
