Hello Dear Friends,
Well I am just so excited to introduce you to Miss Lily. Let me tell you how I found her. There is this little thrift shop not too far from here, however, do not go often because they don't have too much, although did find once a white chenille queen size bedspread for $8...it's beautiful and on our bed. So the other day decided to take a chance and go see what they had, when I walked into the second room, there she was but the pole was not out so she looked almost like she was sitting on the floor. I immediately checked the price and could not believe my eyes when I saw $12. wow! knew right then and there that she was going home with me. Meet Miss Lily.
Isn't she lovely?
I didn't even know the pole was inside of her, it was my dh Rick that said to lay her down and look for the pole. Well after using WD40 we were able to get to the pole. We think the pole had always been inside of her cause it's new and shiny.
I just added a bunch of old jewelry to her for the moment.
I am so happy with Miss Lily and she is also happy that she found a good home.
"A little of what you fancy does you good" ... Have a great week everyone.

Hi, thanks for your comment. Many people have interperated that poem in a different way.
ReplyDeleteI am so pleased your husband recovered from that shot, my late husband was allergic to penillician and once had a reaction.
I wrote the poem after my berevements when life seemed worthless and lonely I read some books and bit by bit I accepted my fate and emerged from that dark tunnel into the sunshine.
Take care.
Yvonne.
Miss Lily suits your jewellery!
