I’ll never forget the mortified look on Russ’s face when asking him to mount the full size bicycle on the dining room wall. Everyone loved it. Everyone talked about it. Eventually he got used to it and four years later when I asked him to take it down, he was very sad. “Why?” Well, I was tired of it, redoing a new treasure and wanting a mirror above it.
This plane was high atop a cabinet at the Spotted Dog Consignment for $12.95. My pitter patter was racing and it was mine. Who else has a plane? Would you believe it was a 11 candle holder? Funny thing is, Russ liked it and took 10 holders off, leaving one because that’s where the pilot sits……I spray painted with Pantone Blue, the color of the year for 2020 which is my splash color …The next step will be to wrap clear fairy lights atop it!
Association is my way of remembering things. Years ago I will always remember the YEAR of our life’s when we lived the O.J. Simpson trial. We named our new mare, Sydebar, to always remember how old she was. When #1daughterconnie got a new puppy, I suggested she name, using our President”s wife’s name to remember how old the dog is…..
So the plane which I just bought reminds me of Kobe Bryant and daughter……..”LORD, hug his wife and children always tightly in YOUR arms”….. and reminds me when OUR Kansas City Chiefs won the 54th SUPER BOWL in Miami ! ! ! FIFTY YEARS ! ! ! ! !
That’s how my mind thinks….weird and proud of it! “Jesus loves me , this I know…”
