One_Night_At_The_Carnival

the good man
carried the unicorn
while the wife and
child cavorted on
the rides and such.

Well… the child was
doing the cavorting,
while the wife was
experiencing sheer
terror on that boat
pendulum torture
thing she’d forgotten
how much she HATES.

The wife was
mostly okay on
the Tilt-a-whirl
and ferris wheel
but quite done-in
by the Scorcher* the
second time ’round.

And the last time I checked, it was still Friday somewhere.

And of course, I had to get crazy with the 3rd shot.

Now, Dearest Friends and Enablers…

I am off to package up 3 eBay auctions that sold — some of hubby’s model railroad stuff.

Yay, my auctions sold! My auctions sold!!

Then… I have photos to take of 6 more railroad things and get those listed.

Whooohooooooo, Jannie can now hire her bassist and drummer!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Oh yeah, I’m the luckiest person I know!!

Who’s the luckiest person YOU know? And why?

You Will Have Friends

You will have friends who carry you.

And times when you will carry them.

 

You will have friends who drift away,

allowing new friends to draw closer.

 

You will have friends long after

I am but wildflowers in the woods.

olivia_Kelly_1

 

Cherish them. But most of all,

cherish you. And the love ever

reigning over and under and

 

in and on everything, like the

oceans of your father’s eyes and

the music in my heart for him.

And thinking I’ll add a 4th photo to this post, sometime in the next coupla days!

A picture you’ve never seen before of Kelly’s ocean-eyed dad.

So, come back, if you wish!
