No. 86
Visited Geri, my favorite postmaster and the gracious guardian of the Bridal Veil post office, and she hooked me up with Tufted Puffin 86 cent stamps (sorry, you can't see it from this side) to use for mailing discs!
Destination: Michigan, U.S.A.
No. 85 - Twisted
Used a photo of my beloved kitty, Cicero. He was a great cat - though he looks a wee bit demonic here. Actually, he was a bit kooky, as most siamese are. But, he mellowed with age and became super sweet. Corn-on-the-cob was his favorite treat!
Destination: Georgia, U.S.A.

Not Scanned!! What is becoming of me.
I mailed a shark, naked mail, with some mini snickers and almond joy inside. You know, sharks will eat just about anything..
#265 was an envacordion. One of my best, with a large bear wearing a backpack. Perhaps we will get a photo from its happy recipient.

A BONECA NO BOLSO
“A boneca no
bolso: Vasalisa, a sabida”
Era uma vez, e
não era uma vez, uma jovem mãe que jazia no seu leito de morte, com o rosto
pálido como as rosas brancas de cera na sacristia da igreja dali de perto. Sua
filhinha e seu marido estavam sentados aos pés da sua velha cama de madeira e
oravam para que Deus a conduzisse em segurança até o outro mundo.
A mãe
moribunda chamou Vasalisa, e a criança de botas vermelhas e avental branco
ajoelhou-se ao lado da mãe.
- Essa boneca
é para você, meu amor - sussurrou a mãe, e da coberta felpuda ela tirou uma
bonequinha minúscula que, como a própria Vasalina, usava botas vermelhas,
avental branco, saia preta e colete todo bordado com linha colorida.
- Estas são as
minhas últimas palavras querida - disse a mãe. - Se você se perder ou precisar
de ajuda, pergunte à boneca o que fazer. Você receberá ajuda. Guarde sempre a
boneca. Não fale a ninguém sobre ela. Dê-lhe de comer quando ela estiver com
fome. Essa é a minha promessa de mãe para você, minha bênção, querida. - E, com
essas palavras, a respiração da mãe mergulhou nas profundezas do seu corpo,
onde recolheu sua alma, e saiu correndo pelos lábios;
e a mãe
morreu.
...
O restante desta história está no
livro “Mulheres que correm com os lobos”, de Clarissa Pinkola Estés.

I managed a bit of a vacation this month and ended up at cottage in northern Quebec and while the wind was howling and we waited for the toilet to unfreeze, I decided to paint. When I got back to warmer climes ... yea -10 ! ... there were enough tree paintings to make think it might be fun to do a month of trees. So here it is: The Trees of March .. beware!
I heavily suspect Elena may be very happy with this ;-)
