I have been sitting on the floor for the last hour going thru a box of the girls’ barbie dolls, barbie doll clothes (which some were mine from the 60s.  I found cabbage patch dolls and stuffed critters and Barbies, and Kens, one of the new kids on the block as well as Michael Jackson. … Read more

Do you ever totally freak yourself out to the point you ask…am I really crazy or do I have too vivid of an imagination. On my way to work this morning, I was coming down the hill on the hard surface road and I thought…Holy crap…there is a blue heron on the road…I’ve never, ever… Read more
