“You must not ever stop being whimsical. And you must not, ever, give anyone else the responsibility for your life.”
Mary Oliver,

Whimsy has always been a part of my life. I refuse to grow up. In fact, my house is cluttered with whimsical characters, and I am forever finding little items of whimsy to add to my menagerie. Since today I seem to be undergoing a wee bit of writer's block, I figured it would be a great time to introduce you to some of my new friends...

It is better for a girl to sleep a hundred years and be kissed and awakened by the right prince than to stay awake and be kissed a hundred times by the wrong frog.

Try to be like the turtle - at ease in your own shell.

Wherever they may have come from, and wherever they may have gone, unicorns live inside the true believer's heart. Which means that as long as we can dream, there will be unicorns.

I like pigs. Dogs look up to us. Cats look down on us. Pigs treat us as equals.

I found all these items in the thrift shop at the Center. Best part of all was that they only cost me $3. I enjoy checking out the shop at least once a week. Never know when I will find a real treasure.
Have a great Tuesday everyone.
I too like to peruse the Senior Center shop so I know that happy feeling you felt with your purchases. . :0)
