“but what use is the unicorn to you if your intellect doesn’t believe in it?” ― umberto eco

yes, it’s true,

there was a moment this week

when i realized

i was

having a real text conversation

with my adult daughter

about who won the unicorn horn

(i think i did)

and

wondering where it was.

 this is certainly 

the gift that just keeps on giving. 

thanks so much for

the ceramic cowgirl boot vase.

i have never owned one,

let alone know how much i needed one.

it truly has found its place

in my cottage

this holiday season,

mini static-ridden styrofoam balls and all.

it will soon hold a place of honor 

as the centerpiece

at our upcoming

badass bookclub brunch and board meeting.

after that, 

who knows 

where it may go?

this boot is made for walkin’.

a gift of mischief and mayhem and love all rolled into one

found this old book of love that my daughters had given me for my birthday more than a decade ago. i laughed out loud all over again, at their kind and loving and humorous approach to life. no one had much money, but this book was worth everything. they spoiled me with offers of flowers and treats and reluctant shared experiences and pampering (even though they signed up their third sister who was out of the country for this task).  here are some of the coupons found within:
