It started in kindergarten with pens and ink pots and blotting paper. Since then I've loved writing. Transferring the noise in my head to paper calms the chaos. If a worthwhile thought occasionally emerges, I'll keep it here with memories, stories and other random trivia, of interest mainly to myself and, with a bit of luck, to the odd passerby.

I have Not Lived In Vain
No, I did not help a fainting robin unto his nest again, but I saved this butterfly! They laughed hysterically when I came running into the house in search of an implement to free him......
But I had the last laugh as he fluttered off to freedom!
You're the Butterfly Whisperer! What was he tangled in? I haven't seen butterflies here all season and on Saturday I saw three of them and it looked like they were headed south. It's just amazing to me that such delicate little creatures actually migrate!

A worthy, valiant task. Who knows what the knock-on effect will be?
You saw a fellow creature in distress and you helped it. Good work.
oh no!!! what have you done?!? the fluttering wings of that saved butterfly may cause a typhoon halfway across the World...
open wide and take your spoonful of guilt like a good girl...
I thought the same thing as dianne. By the way, it's flooding big time in Thailand right now.
What a lovely thing to do!
I just love you...you're a girl after my own heart! blessings, marlene
You must have a very delicate and precise touch!
And a very kind heart. But I knew that, anyway!

What a good heart you have ! And maybe , if this butterfly weren't to flutter its wings tomorrow , something disastrous might happen ....?
We are kindred souls in this way.
Aww. It lives to flutter again.
THANK YOU!!! i was hoping SOMEONE (besides Auntia and me) still sings Witchy Woman ... crazy laughter in another room - bwah ha ha ha!!!
Such a lovely butterfly. Even the ugly things seem worth saving, somehow. I liberate Huntsman spiders so they don't get killed indoors!
So wonderful that you were able to help! I hope all is well there for you, too! :)
Yes, Molly, I am taking NaBloPoMo for a test drive! :) Good luck! I will be glad to be reading all of your posts! :)
what on earth was it caught on?
