Morning, Mimi. So glad that you talked to Olivia...that`s sooo important and I`m sure it will become a more frequent occurrence. Well...Rocco as running mate to Baxter...why not? Must tell you that he asked Spanky, my Bichon, but he declined. So, Rocco is young, healthy and maybe...connected...a Soprano type in D.C. I think that would shake them up or shake them down! If anyone protests, we`ll tell them that they are barking up the wrong tree or don`t bite the hand that feeds ya. Leo has agreed to be official photographer...capturing wagging tails and puppy dog eyes that the voters can trust. Mims, we have to think of a song that "personifies" the candidates` essence. Got any ideas? Joanie

Hi there, Mimi! I just stopped to thank you for your kind words on my POTD from my London Album Magical Nights and Days at the Thames. What a thrill not only to be able to enjoy this wonderful city and capture it’s beauty but also to be honoured by having this Magical Moment on the Thames at night featured! Thanks so very much, I am happy you enjoyed it too! Have a fantastic day! Marita

Hi, Mimi. I am back home after 11 days...seems like a month. Experience was happy and sad, but overall an important journey that had to be taken. Being with Mom 24/7 allowed me to really feel her pain, but she is stronger than she realizes and that`s contagious...so my frame of mind is improvin`. Mims, you sound better and that puts a smile on my face. Fill me in on what`s going on with you...and while you`re at it...could use a refill on Bloody Mary. Luv, Joanie

said Leonslens
Mimi...things can always be worse...that thought gets me through when things get to Me...........
said Leonslens
Mimi..glad you opened the Shutters and let in the Light...just said what you already Knew...keep Dancin
said Leonslens
Mimi...it seems like we go back a long way...and I reckon ...thats Good....be Strong...Positive because thats all we can ....Give..in humble Planet...See'ya later..Mate
said Leonslens
Leon may be referencing (in Leonese-speak) the Lewis Carroll statement...."If you don't know which way you are going...any road will take you there." One of my favorites.....and as a Christian of course, I believe what Christ said,in Matthew 7:13...."Enter by the narrow gate, for wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction..and many enter through it, But,small is the gate and narrow is the road that leads to life...and only a few find it." ~ Something about roads....always beckons me to see whats around the next bend...my thoughts are with you this week Mimi. Sure wish I had a supersize bandaide for the pain....But, I know nothing soothes right now. May you find some comfort in knowing we would all give you a group hug if we could...(well, Leo might not be the huggy sort...but, he'd give you a bottle of his best Merlot. LOL!) ~April

Am Awake...I think I was asleep but I suspect..it was waste of Time.....will be glad to Return to Mother Planet...because i know IT Exists....meanwhile i will stick to Coffee and Wine.....and thats Me...Mimi...uou just take Care....Roger and out.....Coffee Beckons....as for other subject...that lady in Black held my hand and those Blue eyes always smiled..and the Village was full of Secrets..Dark and Lucid and Eternal with Me.......Real is Real...rest is Imagined..
said Leonslens
Sorry I cant assist with your predicament..if I was back in Village the visit to occult practioners may be usefull...but not sure if they still practice..Grandma introduced me at age 4...to such residents..maybe thats why my life has been so extreme...and also have Survived...the not Possible and it bugs me...that X files stuff is...Real and I Know...anyway Mimi you are currently spinnin...but when tops stops am sure you shall find desired Position...Wish You Positive Forces Projected from these..Fingertips...unfor tunately I still possess that useless human need for SOME sleep.which I detest...till later....Leon...Twilght Entity.................fo r sure
said Leonslens
Mimi...that Album..has 4 components Western Society hasnt grasped...but makes movies about...The Priest..The Warlock ..The Witch..The Landlords..it had The Party.....and the Rest.....that was the Balkans..and I was born into it without knowing other worlds existed.....I'am Past and Present..and Future as I see it has No Spirit...but Spirits are sure in Conflict....Tasmania is Sanity..DisneyLand..Thank God
said Leonslens
Not saying a word about the Flamin' A until Leon gives the go-ahead. Heh-heh (male version of tee-hee...)
said DaveMullany
Mims, thanks for kind message when your heart and head is going through soooo much more. I`m doing okay, it`s just a little different, but I`m adapting. I miss ya kid!! I`ve been reading messages back and forth amongst the round table...and I`ll never catch up! I`ll start anew and reintroduce myself on Monday. My porch is all set for the cooler...and Baxter awaits pig`s ears....he just had his very first one last week and counts it in the top ten of his favorite snacks. Mimi...praying that your heart is getting less heavy each day and I have read sage advice from Leon, et al. I can`t add....just believe it will turn out okay...maybe not tomorrow...but soon. There is a reason for everything...the grand scheme that may elude us at present, but God works in mysterious ways. Your fellow round table compadre and friend for as long as you will put up with me(lol)...hugs....joanie

All the babble about the Moon - and the moon - (two different thingies), can be found at Quirks' place. I was chatting to April about the time I was there when the greatest moon in the history of the world (the human kind of moon, that is) was performed in the middle of NYC. Is this obscure? Evince interest and I shall elucidate. The moon - the human kind - is not really a topic than can be discussed in an open, God-fearing forum such as Webshots, but I might mention that it is somewhat allied to the strange and terrible Australian ritual of the "Flaming A" - a (usually) youthful rite of painful passage that only the ineffable and worldly-wise Leon can tell you about. Me - I'm outta here before I get banned :-) Stay strong girl - we're with you...
said DaveMullany
I can think of worse things than Wine..that can assist Self- destruction..Mimi..its a fragmented Universe and so it will continue and the individual reconstructs from the rubble...am I statin what you well know..wish I had solutions Mimi...sure dont and thus stumble through life...best I can.Check out Nature...and see the beauty..stress is a terrible human invention....I can only offer words of Support..Mimi you just tackle each day as it is Offered and time will take Care of the Residue...........Thinkin of 'ya.....Good Night...Lady of the Lake...............Me

Camera sounds good....but cant rely on human condition its unreliable..as soon as one accepts this...one can move on and reform........ones life..its not about choice but what you make of whats left....am available for Comms....just ..Take care....OKKKKKKKKKKKKK... Leon
said Leonslens
Just checking in to see if you're OK. With messages like those beneath this, it could be a lot worse. Stay strong. And maybe next time we can actually exchange thoughts and laughs instead of just "exhanging" them. And he calls hisself a journalist!! Exhanging?? Sounds like lynching one's former spouse... :-)
said DaveMullany
one more note.....Psalm 34: I sought the Lord and He heard me and delivered me from all my fears....This poor man cried and the lord heard him and saved him from all of his troubles...The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear Him, and rescues them. ~

Hello Miss Mims....I appologize for getting to your board last! lately it seems I just have seconds to dash off a quick hi...My daughter and I have our potent...emotional stuff too, and my moms heart sure understands how that feels. They can rip our guts out huh? Family!! can't live without them. Well..my 2 cents isn't worth a lot...but, I just want you to know I really do comiserate. And, I should add...that even when things looked the worst...God always had a way of working it out again between us. It always helps me to remeber how flakey I was at that age...and confused. I have a firend who is a therapist..and I used to sya to her.."I just do NOT understand why my daughter does these things...it makes no sense...I'm so confused by her behavior! and my friend said tome.."Wel, If YOU'RE confused...think of how confused SHE must be!!" That really helped me. Hope it helps you too. heres a cyberhug okay??? April
said quirkyartist
P. S. I mean it!!!
said clover218
Mims, Just left that guy below you a message..hope he found a close parkin` spot...he deserves it. Yes, he did introduce us...in his own way( or at least me to this Mimi person) and I feel like I have known you forever. Dance, Mimi, sing, Mimi, cry, Mimi..do what you gotta do...you have a strong faith and it`s going to get you through...may not be easy...but, that`s what friends are for...Warm hugs...and a shoulder to lean on....and Rock and Roll....Joan
