Some girls never change,...

This photo was sent to me this morning from my very dear friend Grover -

My very best friend all the way through Jr and High school.

Grover is the kindest soul on the planet.

I love you Grover!!!!!

(Don't kill me)

(now)

How or why he had it (below) -  I'm not too sure of that.

But it practicaly made my entire Life!

What more does a good southern girl need -

A fancy Lampshade hat, a box for my trinkets, and a shovel.

I love that I'm prissy, in my underwear and floral shirt-  and pointing my big toe,...

Pretty fucking cute!

Can I get a little Elephant love?

 This is from my friend Nancy - (Thanks Nancy).

We know I love me some elephants.

And even more so, beautiful stories.

This article is awesome,.. such big beautiful hearts.

I want one. Or twenty.

I suppose I'll settle for my precious trinkets from my girls.

I love them too,...

And the year was 1966,...

Happy Mother's Day to my

perfectly wonderful Mom

God knew what he was doing when he

gave me sweet Billie Dean.

As my mother.

And friend.

Not a day passes that I don't find myself smiling at

one memory or another of her.

She was, kindness and grace. Completely selfless. 

 And so very dryly funny.

Nobody could do dry like my mom

Oh the stories of her that I hold so close to my heart.

You couldn't help but smile at her.

I was, and am - truly blessed.

The Love Continues,...

So - no Mother's Day is complete for me - without listening to

her three favorite songs,...

Behind Closed Doors

Kentucky Rain

Suspicious Minds

She makes me laugh even now - It's a wonder

we didn't have a Velvet Elvis Painting in our house.

Oh how she must have wanted one!

I'll never forget the day she got the "Moody Blues"

album. Electric Blue Vinyl.

She loved it!
