Collection & Reflections...
"Sea Shell, Sea Shell
Sing a song for me.
Sing about the ocean
Tell me about the sea." Today I rinsed and washed my collection of sea shells and put them all in one big glass bowl on top the coffee table, it looks sort of neat. I also took down my music boxes and replaced them with 4-5 chicken figurines. I have a yellow yield sign that reads "Chicken X-ing" and in the middle has black chicken silhouettes. Did I ever tell you my favorite story as a kid was "Chicken Little"...the sky is falling...the sky is falling!! I was the drama queen...maybe it is that story that led me to be afraid of my own shadow? When I was knee high to a grasshopper, I was terrified of my grandparents cement ducks that they had in the front yard, before I arrived, they had to cover them up with burlap sacks...I can go on, I was afraid of Aunt M's cuckoo clock, she had to stop the pendulum and cover it with a dish towel before I entered the house, and while I am on the subject of my insane childhood hang ups, I was also afraid of grass, I could walk on it, sit on it, but when the wind blew and caused the blades of grass to move, I was out of there!! As you may have already guessed people were really happy to see me coming--not! Lost photos arrived today. We had sun mixed in with rain. Cherrio!!
