Category: Things Which Are In Other Things

House in the morning.

Rooster in bananas.


Hen in begonia plant.


Phlox in bloom.


Eggs in nest.


Baby in bathtub.

And thirty-four years ago today I was in labor and my first child was still in ME.

I've written about that before. Here, here and here. (Which are links IN a post.)

Here's hoping you are having a fine day and are IN a good mood and a decent outfit.

    HAPPY BIRTHDAY, HANK!

  5. I went into your heart ....
    or you into mine I should say.

    and I don't know what to say.
    You said things that I feel. I am honoured that you shared this with us. With me. With the moments of my life to come.

    love you.

    and happy birthday to your son.

  8. That made me laugh. Was that wrong? What with everyone else being so touched and all. I have new shoes. So yes, I am IN a good mood.

  9. Love the rooster in bananas and Owen!

    I am in a pretty good mood today. The outfit is fine, I guess, but since I recently cut so much of my uneven hair off and made it worse, I had to have it professionally cut again. Second time in four days. What I did to it was starting to look like I was running from the law, and cut it in a stained, dark Phillips 66 bathroom at night , in the middle of nowhere, without a mirror.

    I will never touch my hair with scissors again.

  13. I was reading the other birthday letters, and noticed the name Steve Gaskins on a quote. I'm a little slow on the draw and I'm new here, but I put together your "hippie" references with Ina Mae and Steve, and wondered have you ever lived at the Farm in Summertown? If so, would love to read about it! Was just looking at their website the other day - when the world collapses they'll do just fine......

  20. I actually DID have on a decent outfit today --shocker!! I have to wear a suit everyday, but today I had a cute shirt on. It had these little polka dots on it (which sounds worse than it was) and its something i could wear with black AND brown which is exciting for me.

    That could the most useless comment I have ever written to you :)
