SILLY

Since my camera is giving me fits I decided to look at some previous saved photos. I came across one and had to laugh. I can be so silly, mushy and such a softy at time. You see when I was a little girl I had many dolls but two were my favorite. One went to dolly heaven many, many years ago. The first vinyl dolls just didn't hold up. The other one was a sock doll that my mother had made when they adopted me at a few weeks old. It went everywhere with me. Somewhere in the last move it disappeared. Now that move was 8 years ago. I kept telling myself it will turn up. I tore my cedar chest apart for that is where she should had been. The only good thing about that was the cedar chest needed reorganizing.

I had a water reservoir to my heat pump in the garage crack. It created quite a mess and I had to move all the soaked boxes and "stuff" out to dry. Now it couldn't be that I crammed too many things in the garage and broke the plastic reservoir, nah, not me! Guess what I found?? Yes, you guess it, my sock doll. Well she needed a good washing and I was so afraid she would be to fragile. So I washed her by hand and hug her out to dry.



I think she even enjoyed the sunny day hanging on the clothes line. She is still pretty discolored but I think it adds character to her. She has yarn hair and an embroidered face. So now that she is found she will never be lost again. But where to put her? So for now she will reside with my no face doll on my bed.


I pretty sure with the smile on her face she is very happy she is found and knows she will always have a special place in my heart.

Enjoy June
