OK, I see you have not been posting recently. I hope that you are well. Sometimes, I write because something is bothering me or making me mad. My hope is that your life is almost perfection, and that explains your absence. Best of good fortune to you!!!!

And that sleeping blond, beautiful sleeping giant would be...you Dixie! (My granddaughter's name, by the way)...Bet you wrote this gem sitting under a cherry tree in full bloom...I can smell the aroma, hear the bees buzzing and see the butterflies fluttering from blossom to blossom...Haven't seen you around for a while...Hope all is well and that you are in good health...I miss you! - Tony
