Keep out of direct sunlight

Halloween is now one (1) week away.  I reckon it's time to step up the kid-friendly horror a bit.

This bow fills in one of the few voids I had in my bow collection.  I have bows that light up, and I have a bow that glows under blacklight, but this is the first one I've owned that glows under regular darkness.  Gotta have my daily dose of radium, y'know.  Ardent readers of my doll blog will know that I love things that glow in the dark.

My family is religious, as I've spoken of in the past, and my mother implies that the existence of ghosts flies in the face of the concepts of Heaven and hell.  And yet...and yet we both seem to believe in them.  I've never seen a ghost that I know of, but my grandfather reported seeing...seeing something in his house when Mama was about thirty.  Twice he saw a black lady, dressed in old-timey clothes.  The first time she was sizing up the T.V., trying to figure out what it was.  The second time she was standing at the foot of Grandpa's bed, looking at him like she was trying to make sure he was alright.  He said that she made no sound either time, nor did she make any aggressive movements or actions.  Uncle From St. Louis also reports seeing something strange during his stay at the SEMO dorms.  In his day one of the dorms was an old hospital building, and Uncle reported seeing a light and hearing a stretcher being wheeled, first up the hall, and then back down again.  Pretty freaky!  If I know my uncle he was probably freaked out!

Have any of y'all seen something like that?  Kindly discuss.

Ghostly love,

Let freedom ring

Image
Yet another patriotic one.  This one came from Etsy, but I don't know what shop it was. This one is one of three that my mother got for me in one fell swoop.  The others are the jellybean bow from June 3rd and the flag bow from June 14th . Like them, this bow is a big one. Let freedom ring, baby!  I remember sharing my memories of Flag Day, but I don't remember sharing memories of the Fourth of July...at least, not here.  Oh, I've got so many!  Halloween is my mother's favorite holiday, and Independence Day was my dad's for reasons unknown.  May have had something to do with his love for history.  But anywho, about April Daddy would start setting aside a little money here and there for fireworks, and as July 4th rolled around he'd buy fireworks with that money.  A few here, a few there, a whole sh!tload at Reeve's Boomland in Charleston...oh, Boomland.  I liked going there, but as I grew older I began to realize that it was kinda a dangerous...

Pac-Man fever

For the record, I suck at Pac-Man.  I've only played it a handful of times, but each time I couldn't get past the first level.  I guess it's one of those games that requires practice and patience...and patience is NOT one of my virtues!  Regardless, I do like Pac-Man.  Compared to the dumb video games we have today Pac-Man's simple innocence is...well, it's pretty nice.  Unfortunately I'm about to make myself look like a complete hypocrite, because my Pac-Man is munching more than just little white pellets! Phooey on pellets and fruit and ghosts, Pac-Man's hitting the hard stuff!  The Etsy carrier, DollfaceDesignss , goes heavy on the horror, so I guess Pill-Popper Pac-Man is kinda tame compared to Psycho .  Whatevs, I like my accessories a little (or a lot) on the offbeat side, so I'm happy.  This is a mighty nice bow, by the way.  Some of my bows pull my hair like mad, but this one slid right in. In addition to the goofy hair bow I've gone ...

International Sloth Day

Y'all know what that means! I think I've worn and shown this bow before (shop name is CherylsBowtasticBows ), but it's one of my favorites because SLOTHS, that's why!  I don't think I ever showed y'all my earrings, though. Those also came from Etsy (shop name is JMDesignsbyUS ), and they're made of wood.  JMDesigns is located in Sedalia, so usually when I order from them I get my item(s) toot sweet.  I never have been to Sedalia, by the way.  They seem to be a tornado magnet, having been hit in 1952, 1973, 1977, and 1980, so maybe I'd best NOT go.  The tornado in 1952 hit the Missouri State Fair, by the way.  Normally it's a bad thing for a tornado to hit during the night, but in that case it was a very good thing, as the fairgrounds were fairly empty.  Indeed, the only fatality in the 1952 storm was in a mobile home, not on the fairgrounds.  But enuff of that; this is supposed to be about sloths, not tornadoes!  If you've read my doll blog t...
