It was a Beautiful...Busy... Day Three!!
No Rain!!
Load's of Sun!!
YAY!!
{Today...is The Same!! Beautiful, and Sunny!!}
A Darling Family...popped in, first thing, yesterday morning.
The above little Gal, asked for a price on the little bird house, she's holding.
She was fascinated with it.
; )
It belonged to Our Peg.
I began telling her All About 'The Mad March Hare', showed her...some of Peg's gourds, she created...and knowing Peg, she'd sure Love her...to have the little bird house, and enjoy it, like Peg did.
<3
I get such a Charge...out of Children, when they visit The Rabbit Hole.
: )
They so enjoy all of it's hiding places, and have so much fun 'discovering'...things.
: )
There are no locked showcases, down The Rabbit Hole, I encourage Children to touch.
Little hands, never hurt anything...it's usually me, or an Adult, who wind up breaking something, and...that's pretty rare.
; )
'Stuff Happens'.
; )
.jpg)
These Sweet Girls, spent a long time...diggin' around The Rabbit Hole.
They found some Treasures.
Turns out...Lorrie, the Girl on the right...was quite a Treasure to Scout.
I, never knew it...but, she used to bring him apples, often.
<3
She sent me the below images, of Scout.
oh my.
<3
Priceless.
I had never met Lorrie, until yesterday....
She said that she'd come here many times, over the last few years...and brought Scout apples, and wondered about the little building {Rabbit Hole} that seemed so buttoned up.
{this part...makes me cry. : ( }
She said...{as, so many have, over the last few days.}
"It's so interesting...I so wanted to come inside, but nobody was ever around." then...she asked me what's The Story...of the 'little house'.
She, said... "Did the Elderly person who lived here...pass away?"
oh my Gosh.
: (
I...looked at her, then...looked down, at the ground...processing,
thinking...on exactly how to answer
her question... and...said,
"Well... in a way....I guess she did die, and you're lookin' at her."
I, explained...that, what IDOT and Fairfax...have 'done', to what used to be my Sanctuary, is like death by a thousand cuts.
They've ripped my Soul out.
I, couldn't bear to see it, so...didn't,
for a long...long...time.
but...
I've forced myself, to get back here, and...try to raise the Phoenix Bird, out of the ashes.
Slowly, very...slowly.
Went on, and told her...what a Blessing it is to be back, because of People, just like Her, and...the others, who've found their way to it.
The Rabbit Hole...isn't everyone's Cup of Tea.
The People...who are drawn to it...{and it Does... Pull...Certain Folks In}
are Meant to find their way there.
It's difficult to explain,
it makes me sad, and...angry, we've been apart for so long.
Open TODAY... Sunday...11-6!!
Still pulling things out, cleaning...and sorting.
; )
Will be, for a Month...of Sundays.
Don't Forget, we're starting on an Estate Sale, that will be June 9-12, 2022, in Marion, Iowa.
Details...soon.
; )

Yes, indeed.
; )
Truer Words, were Never Spoken.

Called our Lawyer, this morning.
I, just needed to Hear His Voice.
He could've read the dictionary, to me...
that, would've been more than enough.
; )
He has 'Balance', and 'Focus'.
Priceless.
Spoke, with Pal, Allyson, tonight, we've been playing 'phone tag'...I, had to cancel a trip...we'd planned, told her...how sorry, I am, with my explanation, then...went on, and said,
I could probably use a Great Psychiatrist.... these days...

{Allyson, is an Amazing, Caring... Loving...
Psychiatrist, to Many. <3 {Dear, Dear...

Glad we have 'em, and...the Amazing People, who are Strugglin' Right With Us.
Beside
Us.
Grateful.
Pal, Ed...always reminded me, back in 'The Day'...again, before, it was popular,
"It's All about 'The Journey...Barb."

That, Ed...is a Wise Man.

Prayers, for All.
Barb C.
