Hello my lovelies!  I hope you all had an enjoyable weekend and managed to get up to some kind of mischief (having fun is important, y'all!)

Well, after our teaser of spring, it turned cold and snowed like a - well, let's just say I am unimpressed.  And now there are very serious concerns about flooding which just adds insult to injury, I'm thinking.
!!  Moving to the West Coast is sounding better and better.  'Kay, enough of my bitching...

On a much happier note, I was included in JunkbyJen's Birthday dedication for this week and this is her beautiful creation:

Thank you so much, Jen - I love it!

And I'll be keeping this section short because the features are HUGE this week.  I tried to keep them contained but I gave up because there was just too many wonderful works and I didn't want to eliminate any of them!  I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.  (And the Monday Haha's are down there too, of course!)

Have a wonderful week!

Love 'n hugs ~ Miriel

   To Feel.........I want to scream.
I am screaming but no-one can hear me.
People shuffle past me in a hurry to get to where-ever they need to be.
Clicking on their mobile phones, speaking to nameless faces on the other end.  Can't they hear my screams?
I can feel my throat contract as I try to get their attention.
Still pushing past me,  jostling me from one side to the next like I wasn't even there.  No smiles on their faces,  just determination and angst.  I must be dreaming or they would help me,  surely they can see me even if the sounds from my throat are mute.  I fall to my knees and the tears come.  Fast and wet and with such ferocity that I have to gulp them back to catch my breath.
Please let me breathe, help me to make some-one see me.
"This is me" I scream
"The pain I feel is real"
Praying that just one hand reaches to help me from my knees.

  :thumb117228221: Ring the bellRing the bell
I killed my love
That golden voice
will never sing again
nor whisper tender words to me
Ring the bell
I killed my love
Falling rain bedews
those once so sparkling eyes
still looking in surprise at me
Never my flame will burn again
the stars are doused
sun won't shine for me
Ring the bell
I killed my love
Into darkness now I turn
say goodbye to sanity
never I'll feel warm again
At my hands I gape
on my tears I choke
the blood I wash away
My journey now begins
a search for the just departed soul
to save me from my own hell
I murdered love...
Now ring the bell

Boots

An older couple, Edna and Ralph, moved to Texas .

Ralph always wanted a pair of authentic cowboy boots, so, seeing some on sale, he bought them and wore them home.

Walking proudly, he sauntered into the kitchen and said to his wife, 'Notice anything different about me?'

Edna looked him over. 'Nope.'

Frustrated, Ralph stormed off into the bathroom, undressed and walked back into the kitchen completely naked except for the boots.

Again he asked Edna, a little louder this time, 'Notice anything different NOW?'

Edna looked up and exclaimed, 'Ralph, what's different? It's hanging down today, it was hanging down yesterday, it'll be hanging down again tomorrow!'

Furious, Ralph yelled, 'AND DO YOU KNOW WHY IT'S HANGING DOWN, Edna?'

'Nope', she replied.

'IT'S HANGING DOWN, BECAUSE IT'S LOOKING AT MY NEW BOOTS!!!!'

Without changing her expression, Edna replied,
'Shoulda bought a hat, Ralph.. Shoulda bought a hat.'

Attitude For Today

Some days you just feel this way.

Man of the House

The husband had just finished reading a new book entitled, 'YOU CAN BE THE MAN OF YOUR HOUSE'.

He stormed to his wife in the kitchen and announced, 'From now on, you need to know that I am the man of this house and my word is Law. You will prepare me a gourmet meal tonight, and when I'm finished eating my meal, you will serve me a sumptuous dessert. After dinner, you are going to go upstairs with me and we will have the kind of sex that I want. Afterwards, you are going to draw me a bath so I can relax. You will wash my back and towel me dry and bring me my robe. Then, you will massage my feet and hands. Then tomorrow, guess who's going to dress me and comb my hair?

The wife replied, 'The freak'n funeral director would be my first guess.'....
