Thanks for the nice compliments on my “symbolic rings” layout (see

Your mom did take off one of her rings.
The one she bought after chapter one.
She gave that one away to the winner of a little witch contest.
Guess who that winner was…
Yep, my dd Carmen and she still wears that ring!!

Freewheelin’ Friday (#9)

Look what came in the mail this week…

All the way from Vegas! Now THAT’S some service! Wohwee!!!

I’m totally in love with the “running lady” (the big stamp on the left) and she
reminds me of my friend Lenny!!! Aaaah, dear Lenny (bonjour ma belle!)
