Four Weeks and Counting


Suddenly, signs of Spring are everywhere. My bead shop is blossoming with vintage flower beads. In the jewelry shop, flowers are replacing the snow and ice.
Yesterday, I was outside and heard the bluebirds chattering. They know what I know. In four weeks, Spring will be here. Time to clean out the bluebird boxes and get ready for one of the prettiest sights on Earth. Bluebird eggs!
Until next time.....

Strange Days Indeed~

Everybody's talking and no one says a word
Everybody's making love and no one really cares
There's nazis in the bathroom just below the stairs.

Always something happening and nothing going on
There's always something cooking and nothing in the pot
They're starving back in China so finish what you got.

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed strange days indeed.

Everybody's runnin' and no one makes a move
Everyone's a winner and no one seems to lose.
There's a little yellow idol to the north of Katmandu.

Everybody's flying and no one leaves the ground
Everybody's crying and no one makes a sound.
There's a place for us in movies you just gotta stay around.

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed most peculiar Mama.

Everybody's smoking and no one's getting high
Everybody's flying and never touch the sky
There's Ufo's over New York and I ain't too surprised.

Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Nobody told me there'd be days like these
Strange days indeed most peculiar Mama.

Nobody Told Me....by John Lennon

I heard this song on the radio today and I had the urge to write the words down and look at them. So, I did.
Tonight is the Lunar Eclipse. It's semi-cloudy here in Tennessee, but in between the clouds, I was able to take a few pictures. This last picture edited itself like that, out of nowhere.
Strange days indeed.
Until next time.....
