I was going through the pictures on my phone and I found this one, I thought it was pretty nifty so I’m posting it:
In case you’re curious, that is one of my many, many, many gargoyles and next to it is a birthday card from my son. We had a fabulous dog named Domino that was a Dalmation/ Cattle Dog mix and I think the picture reminded my son of her- not for the obvious reason but the attitude more then anything else.

RDP Monday: FOLLY
Sometimes it’s not the house or building that’s the folly. Sometimes it is what inside of it that is-
Blue Room – Linden Frederick
My house
had bright green trim
and the gutters always leaked.
There was an apple tree in the front yard
and cherry trees in the back yard and a holly tree
at the bottom of the yard with my initials carved into the trunk.
My house fit into our street
much better then I ever did
there was nothing about me that was like anyone else
I was built wrong, colored wrong, I was damaged and worn and chipped
and when I moved away, I’m sure my house was very relived.
I think it feels like a real home now but I’ll bet the gutters still leak.
