Happy Labor Day to all my American friends! 🙂 Here’s something to start your day with a smile…
Making my way through the vale,
I chanced on a talking snail
Who sang to me of dragons,
Ice princesses in wagons…
I said, “hang on, is this a fairytale?”

This is the blog of a woman who is seriously on the edge and I mean right ON the edge…no, not there… just a little bit further… further than that…no, further still…just a tiny bit more… just move slightly to the right a little…no, that’s too much…just move a tad to the left…that’s right, just there…now you’ve moved too far to the left… Damn, what part of the ‘on the edge’ do you not understand? Oh, and her matricidal boy genius, come devil spawn.

Ice Princesses… you should only be so lucky. I mean, I could see this as a picture book… for the more mature of us, at least the advancing teenagers +
And thank you for the celebratory greeting. May your labors, always make your day!! 🙂

Love it, Al. Sadly, we don’t have talking snails in Oregon. We have beer-drinking slugs (I’m not kidding – they’re in my garden getting soused). I like your version better. Thanks for the morning fantasy. 🙂

Thanks Roger. Have started writing a longer piece of fiction, so most of my writing time is dedicated to that now. It’s a comedy, in my own particular style 🙂
I’ll still try and post on here from time to time, and keep up with some blogs 🙂
