If You Need Me....Call Me


Don't call me at the number on that phone though....
No telling who would answer there.

Remember the days of rotary dialing?
We had rotary phones when I was young~
and I'm not that old!

Ugh~
To get almost through with dialing and then spin the wrong one
and have to start over.

Don't miss that.

But we probably were more focused on the conversations then.

You actually had to sit down and talk...
or at least could only do something for as far as the cord would reach.

Now if we leave our phones at home....
we have to go around the block and return home to get it.

My how the world has changed.

Ready to Rev

The greatest dreams are always unrealistic.
~Will Smith


I stopped in at a car show the other day....
their was so much chrome and shine.
It could even make a girl drool.
:)

I apologize now for not knowing the make or model or year of this beauty~
Actually...I know that it was a Ford.
That's the extent of my knowledge.
Sorry to disappoint the car lovers out there~
it's usually the color and style that gets my attention.
I have no loyalties to any particular maker.

I did see my dream car there...it was exactly what I've been dreaming of~
A big vintage truck that was converted to a four door....
you know~ to fit the whole fam
~wood runners in the back~
{{sigh}}

It was appraised that day


make a guess.....


{$75,000}

{{sigh again}}

well

a girl can dream.

Counting

Count the garden by the flowers
never by the leaves that fall;
Count your life with smiles
and not the tears that roll.

I found these old metal numbers hanging on the telephone line right by our outbuilding.
I have never noticed them in the 5 years that I've lived here.
Isn't it funny how a camera opens your eyes to so many things?

A Toss of the Dice

Life will always remain a gamble, with prizes sometimes for the imprudent,
and blanks so often to the wise.

Time in a Bottle


But what minutes! Count them by sensation and not by calendars,
and each moment is a day.

It's A Magic Number



I almost wish we were butterflies and liv'd but 3 summer days-
3 such days with you I could fill with more delight
than 50 common years could ever contain.
