The Boxer... oh my.

160 Years Later...

She's Still... Fallin'!!

Hahahahahaha!!!

<3

Happy Cinco de Mayo...

to All.

: )

Not celebrating.

 Did that... a day early.

: )

oh...

my.

Made a mad dash... yesterday, early in the day.

: )

A Much... 'Needed' Dash.

: )

Got up early, Sunday Morn... washed the gray out of my hair.

Bought a different color this time, it sounded good.

'Black Cherry'.

; )

turned out to be much more

 'BLACK'...

than

'Cherry'.

; )

{Look like Gene Simmons. ; ) }

oh...

dear.

: )

No worries. 

: )

It'll grow out, or... I'll Cut It All Off!!

: )

I've been very tempted, lately... about cutting it short, short...

again.

Sister, Chery...

 oh my.

<3

She wore her hair very short.

Seemed, when she got

 'Frustrated'...

 with

'Life'...

she'd get the shears out, 

and 

Cut Her Hair!!

'Hair'... 

I believe, coming from a Mom, Aunt, and Sister in Law, who were all...

Amazing 'Hairdressers', is kinda like a Mood Ring. 

: )

I've had my hair... cut so short it would stand on end.

Have had it so long... I could sit on it.

Even had Cornrows braided in my hair... back, in The Day. : )

I've had it every color... but Blond.

{Couldn't bring myself to torture my hair going from very dark...

 to blond, with the chemicals. 

They make Wigs... for That!! Hahahaha!!}

On my way Home... from the 'Much Needed Dash', 

the Sun was Shinning... Such a Beautiful...

Day... for a Drive.

<3

Me, and Jethro... had just pulled on to Highway 30, 5 miles from Home....

a...

Mustang, like the one above...

pulled up beside us, 

Revved His Powerful... 

Engine...

wantin' 

to...

'Race'.

: )

{boys... boys. : ) }

The First Rule, if ya want ta Race...

don't do it, on a Highway,

 on a 

Beautiful...

Iowa...

Spring... 

Sunday...

When Everything, 

seems 

Right...

with

'The World'.

; )

I could Make Those... Boy's a Promise...

Pretty... 

Sun Shiny...

Spring Days, 

aren't for

 'Racing'.

; )

Ever.

Ever.

Ever.

; )

Fact.

oh my.

; )

Been struggling with Much, oh dear.

Wasn't sure... if I could get to Gold Rush.

or, if I should.

Pal, Gail... has given me her thoughts.

<3

I, don't want to let people down.

With The Ford... down, gads.

: (

I... feel, with 'everything' 

{things I haven't shared}

  like I'm stepping into the

Boxing Ring, 

with...

Muhammad Ali, 

with...

 my hands tied behind my back.

Sadly... 

think I'm not alone.

Love to Ya...

Prayers for All.

{Prayers for The Rule of Law, too.}

Posted an image of a ticket, above... from 

the 1964

Fight...

between Sonny Liston, and 

Cassius Clay.

{Muhammad Ali}

Found it at a Farm Auction....

a few years after Dad passed away.

Dad... was a Huge Fan, of Ali.

<3

Watching Dad... listen to a Fight, on the radio... or watch his Fights...

on T.V.

was better to me, than seeing 'Ali' in action.

: )

So Wish... 

often wish...

Dad would've been the holder of that ticket, in '64,

 watched Ali in person, when he fought

Liston.}
