OK, I'm asking everyone I know and even people I don't know. (THE LOST IS FOUND!)‏

It goes with a pretty blouse. I quess I should use all of this discription in past-tense because I have not been able to figure out what I did with it. HELP!

There it was with the the other green things in my color-corrdinated closet (OCD) hiding between two blouses and pushed back so that it's sleeves were not visible. (I STILL think that the gremlines took it and then, when they were done tormenting me, they brought it back because I looked in my closet seven times. I had even looked there because I thought that was where it should be.) Whatever happened, I am delighted. I would tell you all that this is because I am old but it really is just because I am like that and always have been. "If it had been a snake it would have bit you," my grandmother used to tell me.

The Mirror


The Mirror
Edmund Burke 1729 - 1797, Irish Philosopher.


I look in the mirror
And what do I see?
A strange looking person
That cannot be me.

For I am much younger
And not nearly so fat
As that face in the mirror
I am looking at.

Oh, where are the mirrors
That I used to know
Like the ones which were
Made thirty years ago?

Now all things have changed
And I`m sure you`ll agree
Mirrors are not as good
As they used to be.

So never be concerned,
If wrinkles appear
For one thing I`ve learned
Which is very clear,

Should your complexion
Be less than perfection,
It is really the mirror
That needs correction!!

The Lost is Found

Myrna: It is true that AnnMarie has always had a knack for finding the items I have lost.
