I cannot take Credit for that Awesome Blog Post Title Hook, I stole, um, I mean, Borrowed it, from Fellow Blogger Friend at AGING AWKWARDLY Blog. But, I wanted to remember the phrase and using it was the only way I knew I would. Yes, I did Write it down too but know I'll lose or misplace that piece of Paper eventually. *LOL* I must say tho', I've been a Member of that Fitness Protection Program Club for many Moons now. *Winks* Well, I TRY to be more active in The Club, but, circumstances, mostly revolving around Full Time Caregiving, do make it challenging to be as consistent and involved as I'd like to be. I think if I were living Solo, with no Family, I'd be at The Gym daily, at least I THINK I'd be. But, with Three Generations under one Roof and nobody likely to be leaving in the rest of my Lifetime, we'll just never know, will we? We will just have to speculate and Imagine I would. *Bwahahahaha*
I'm trying also to be more proactive in developing my Posts earlier so that I have at least one Unpublished one finished. That has been challenging, and in the past it was so easy and effortless that I've previously had several waiting to be Published and just sitting out there Unpublished and Dated in Advance to Auto Publish on the Date and Time set. Now, well, I wanna Blog and do sit here Daily, but either Life has too much going on to unpack, process and Share, or, absolutely nothing to Blog about. I kind of like the nondescript days of nothingness to report, it's Serene, but, yes, quite Boring to Write about in a Blog. I'm not that Blogger that can have a Simple Life and make it sound Awesome. I think that's why I almost had it drive me Mad to live in Rural affluent Subdivision Hell for those Years at the Villa McManse? The only thing to really Write about then was how much I Hated living out there in the fabulous Gilded Cage, but around a Community that was pretentiously horrid and absolutely Boring!!!
Usually I'd be challenged to Feel Bored, and Imagined that if I found myself in a Space of having Free Time to Feel Bored, I'd just be more Creative. I wasn't, becoz with the Boredom and Isolation came a type of Depression, Malcontent, and Social Isolation I'd never wanna revisit in this Lifetime. I could not be a Recluse, let us just say. The Man could, so I think he actually enjoyed living out there in that ridiculous sized McManse, that he gleefully showed off to his Two Brothers and his Two Sisters-In-Law, when they came to visit from out of State. I think mostly to see the House, quite frankly, coz it was a One Off for both of them and I think Jealousy then prevailed? His Brothers have Lived Larger, and flaunted it, so he always felt he Lived Smaller, by Choice, but, with less to brag about and to Show Off like his Siblings seemed to Delight in doing. Call it Sibling Rivalry, which, my Younger Brother and I never had, so I simply cannot relate to experiencing it. Frankly, I don't Care how anyone else Lives or what they Choose, and I don't Care what they think of how I Live or what I Choose either.
After about a Minute, I realized I was quite Over owning a Million Dollar Listing I Scored on The Cheap when the Luxury Housing Market was in the shitter. And, it never quite recovered so all the folks that paid over a Million originally for those McManses are still deeply underwater with Negative Equity. In their Lifetimes they MAY break Even, but, I kinda doubt it, coz the Housing Market now is precarious as Hell for a whole lotta reasons that aren't likely to improve anytime soon as I see it. And Luxury Housing and the ability for anyone to pay over a Million is quite limited and always will be. The 99% just don't Live that Large and to whom much is given, much is required, you need Staff to maintain a Home of that magnitude, and a hefty income to also, it's expensive, even if you were given the Property, maintaining it ain't for the Faint of Heart financially. I have a Friend in the Industry that owns a Chateau in France and he has to let Locals live there for Free and Maintain it for him so it's affordable, and he's Loaded. But, says it's a prohibitive expense to own and maintain a Chateau in France that massive. It's why the French Sell them on The Cheap to wealthy Non-French.
Anyway, he's offered some of our Family to go there any time and Work Off the French Chateau Vacation Experience in 'payment'. *LOL* I think the Chateau has as many Rooms as a Medieval Castle once owned by Royalty, so, it would be a lot of Work. I have no delusions, but told the Kiddos, well, if you're up for that, Troy would Honor the Offer, this I know, if you are Down for a Work Vacation? *Smiles and Winks* I've been to France, in Childhood, no real desires to revisit Europe anymore, tho' it is lovely. My Wanderlust now I'm Old, has Dreams of Exotic Locales instead that I've never been to and are on the Ole' Bucket List, places like Bora-Bora. Or, even going back to Hawaii and visiting all of the Islands this time instead of just the Two we Honeymooned on many Moons ago. Hawaii exceeded expectations, especially Kauai, where we spent almost all of our time there, not Oahu, tho' I'm sure much has changed in that many Decades, as places just do over Time.
If I never get to go again I shall fondly recall having been there at least once. Tho', I doubt I'd wanna live there, I'd get Island Fever, also known as Rock Fever, pretty damned sure. I know I'd eventually feel restless, isolated, restricted and confined, to where Mentally it would Freak me Out. My Psychological responses are pretty predictable with me, I know myself well enuf to know what would Trigger a Negative Outcome in most given Situations. I J'Adored Hawaii, don't get me Wrong, it was like a Slice of actual Heaven on Earth. Yet, Living there was never something I even considered, except in a Daydream you know is just a Fantasy and not a Reality you'd want to actually play out. Coz Fantasyscapes and Reality are Two entirely different things that most sensible Adults realize and take into consideration. It's like Owning that French Chateau, even if I could own one, I wouldn't, I'm too Realistic to be that delusional, but the Fantasy of one is Awesome to Daydream about. I like watching a Reality Show about someone Owning and Restoring one. I know I wouldn't be up to it now.
Okay, in my Youth I was Down for a lot of Impossible things and Projects, overwhelming ones, challenging ones, Crazy ones at time. I was Game and did it, I could Write a Novella about the Crazy or seemingly Impossible shit I've done and wasn't the least bit hesitant in the doing of it or intimidated by it. In Youth, you can be that Foolish and Recklessly throw Caution to the Wind. Life is such an Adventure, often a Wild one, in Youth. You might even Survive your Bad or Foolish Choices at those earlier Seasons of Life. But now, in Retirement Years and the decline that naturally comes with all of that, you know, that would be ridiculous and too risky to contemplate. If I was seriously considering it, I'd want the Kiddos to have me Evaluated and perhaps have Adult Protective Services involved for my own good and well being. *LMAO*
The Man wakes up early but he's also a Light Sleeper so asked Why I was up all Night? Well, coz I'm having those dreadful Visions Honey and I don't wanna revisit them and can't always Block them when Asleep and my Subconscious lets them come in to my Consciousness, that's Why! I'd rather stay up and Block them. He understands that sometimes my Visions and Premonitions torment me, so, I have to just do what I Need to do in order to not allow it to derail me Mentally and Emotionally. Especially if I can't do or say anything that will change the inevitable that just hasn't happened yet, but will. With certainty I know it will even tho' I always Hope and hold out Hope, that I'm Wrong this time? So, for now, that's what I'd prefer to be the Outcome and it never happens as I've Seen it in advance? But, damn it's keeping me up at Nights lately and is relentless in that it is on Repeat when I do Sleep, Forewarning me, if it's not able to Forewarn anyone else. And I'd like to feel Thankful for that, but I don't really... I'd rather not Know... about all that anyway.
And so fuck, I'm Blogging instead about Vacays I won't be going on but would rather Write about coz it's at least a Positive thing to contemplate that hasn't happened, even if it never will, you know? I just dropped Princess T off at Work, she goes in an Hour Earlier every Tuesday after having been off Sunday and Monday, there's a lot to do on Tuesdays coz Mondays were Half Price Day so the Store gets a bit wrecked. Tuesdays are Senior Day and Wednesdays are Military Day, then Thursday is frequent Shopper Day, so there's lots of Days where you can get a Discount at SAVERS and I like that coz it's already in the POS System, unlike the GOODWILL with their stupid E-Mail Coupon you have to Photograph and remember to download onto your Phones to get 20% Off when it's not Senior or Military Day there. Now you have to show ID for Senior Day as well as Military Day at the GOODWILL, just to prove you're a Senior, even tho' it's usually pretty fucking obvious you are one. And who exactly pretends to be Military, really!?! *LOL and Eye Roll*
Anyway, suffice to say that Tuesdays are her least favorite Day of the Work Week to run damage control behind the Half Price Day Shoppers. They sometimes get off earlier, but not always, so, it's sometimes mandatory overtime which she's not fond of either, she is Young enuf to still have a Life beyond Work. *Smiles* They're still having high turnover, but most of the Positions are Entry Level ones, so I told her that's Normal unless you have a Career and not just a Job. Nobody wants to be earning Minimum Wage and try to Live on an Un-Livable Salary that can't even make Rent anywhere, let alone pay for anything else like Food and other necessities beyond Shelter. The Son is making more than Twice Minimum Wage and still can't afford Rent anywhere and other necessities beyond Shelter. So in Today's Economic freefall, I think the Average American should be Earning a Triple Digit Income to be defined as a good and Livable Salary, no matter how many Incomes are coming in to make $100,000+, it's just necessary now or you're fucked, and that's if you're Single!
A Family should need about $235,000 on the Average to live comfortably in America right now, otherwise, they're pretty much gonna be Hand to Mouth and Paycheck to Paycheck. And I would venture to guess, as a Statistics Obsessed person that I just am and always have been, that the "Average" American is not earning that much. And most Retirees certainly aren't on that much of a Fixed Income, tho' most have Raised their Families, but, not all of us have them not under our Roof anymore, coz they can't afford to have their own place anymore. And that $235,000 is around the 75th Percentile of Americans, realistically. And that's not good Numbers for the masses below the 75th Percentile that make up 3/4 of the Population. And the 95th Percentile is what this Administration caters to and gives most of the Breaks to, with the Top 1% getting the Gravy of it, tho' they are the least likely to have Need of it, just Greed of it.
As Retirees of solid Corporate Careers, we're still only in the 50th Percentile or thereabouts. And we were both at the Top of our Game when we Retired. But, Inflation and Hyper-Inflation and what things NOW Cost eroded how much and how far that now goes. Along with The Issues of Life, such that they play out as your Hand Dealt. And that my Friends is the challenge for most Americans now and will get increasingly more dire. Becoz, decisions being made at the very Top are bad for most Americans and we don't have the means to be Extorted or Shaken Down like the Big Dogs. So, we don't even matter to this Administration. He's playing the Numbers that if he Intimidates, Extorts and Shakes Down all of the Countries and American Businesses with means to Pay him Off for perceived Favor, he'll still make a shitload of Money from just those that Cave. And, no Extortionist or those that engage in Shakedowns just do it to ya once, Trust and Believe, it will never End once they succumb.
Even if the rest don't bow down or try to utilize our Legal System to their advantage, he's disobeyed the Law anyway, so he doesn't Care, he won't Pay even if there is a Judgment against him, he never has. No Restitution is forthcoming therefore and no Real Consequence, and so it goes unchecked and unchallenged really. And successfully Conning the ones who he is Smarter than, has worked pretty good for him too. Since, I've said it before but it bears repeating, a Conman doesn't have to be Smart, just Smarter than and more Clever than those he's Conning. And, the vast Majority of Marks of any Con Game are too ashamed or embarrassed to admit they were the Rubes of one and fell for it. So, some of them pretend as if they aren't Victims of a Con, to Save Face they'll even have a sort of Stockholm Syndrome going on to where they now Identify with their Abuser and thus keep being Abused and Used. And no Conman or Predator of any kind ever Cares about his or her Victims, they're simply a Means to their End for as long as they can be Useful to them. And Greasing the Palms of the Right folks willing to be Bought always gets desired Results. Even if it's just to look the other way and not Report Abusers.
Yeah, there's many who've been Bought and Paid For, so, they're beholden now and Slaves to their chosen Masters they're indebted to. Hard to get out of that Arrangement when you make a Deal with Devils and were willing to Sell your Souls in the Process. Some probably even came rather Cheaply in the Sellout of themselves and their Reputations. Some did it out of Fear, since Retaliation and Retribution are a Given with this Cabal and withstanding that onslaught can be very Expensive and most don't have the Means to be Bankrupted like that when they've become a Target of the most Powerful and Corrupt who are willing to do everything and anything to hold onto Power and Privilege. If you're an Obstacle, they seem quite intent and enabled to remove you or destroy you, and that is Chilling. You gotta really have Nothing to Lose to endure that and stand up to it for the Long Haul. So, those that have remained in a Safe Space being too Fearful to resist Pressure, it is understandable, protecting themselves and their Loved Ones is important stuff.
I don't even have the Answers to much of what so many are facing and will endure, for sure, not mebbe. Especially those in Public Service who are the first line of Defense, coz they for sure have a Target on their Backs and a Dossier to be Taken Down or Taken Out by this Government. He even brags of The List, so all the Quiet Parts have been said out loud, nobody should have any delusions. Tho' some seem in pretty deep Denial or Acceptance, who want to think there's Nothing To See Here and All Is Well, they'll be Fine. No, No it's not, but, you'll soon get a harsh Reality Check when you aren't gonna be Fine either and you suddenly realize it. The Oh Shit Moment is coming for many, rest assured, they won't be Spared, no matter how Devoted any Cult Member is, they're all Expendable. And some don't even Mind knowing they are, they're so Brainwashed, fully Indoctrinated and willing to be the Human Sacrifices and Canon Fodder voluntarily. They are the most Usably Doomed.
I only have Pity for the Usably Doomed who are either Children or Vulnerable Adults, who really didn't have a Free Will Choice, the rest were Willing Grown Ass Volunteers for what happens to them IMO. Natural Selection at Work really, just like during COVID, where mostly Bad Choices had the predictable Outcome for many, who simply refused to be enlightened or helped, ran with bad information or lies. So, when The Plague came for them and their Denial and Ignorance of being Covidiots didn't Save most of them, they're Dead now. I knew some of them, or I knew Loved Ones of some of them... and, the tragedy really was, it didn't have to happen the way it did, but they made Choices that had serious dire and deadly Consequences. Being on the Wrong Side of History will catch up to many MAGA, I'm Sure of it. Yet, there will also be a lot of continued unfortunate Collateral Damage too, becoz of them... and becoz of who they Elected. And that didn't have to happen either... by Voting In a Devil, not Once, but Twice. When someone Fools you Once, Shame on them, when they Fool you Twice, Shame on YOU!
Well, I did Environmental Cleanup really early by the River and there was a small lactating Pitbull Mix laying under the Trees by the River in the Shade Sleeping. She startled me when she Moved, coz she was Black and had blended in to the darkened Thicket of Trees! There are Ranches nearby, but I didn't know if she was from one of them or someone had abandoned her? I didn't wanna lure her out coz her teats were big so I knew she had a Litter of Pups somewhere. Unless someone dumped her and not the Puppies, or, I don't know what they might have done to Puppies? I dunno, none were with her that I could see. I wouldn't wanna risk to separate a Mama from her Litter, and, besides, Shelters don't accept Pit Bull Dogs. Plus, I didn't even know why this Dog was there, could belong to a Homeowner nearby for all I knew?
Anyway, I went to a Convenience Store nearby and paid too much for a Bag of Dog Food of a good Brand to go back and give her. Don't know how long ago she'd eaten and she was a small Young Dog. She'd have plenty of Water by the River, and she wasn't mean spirited, she looked more scared of me actually, she had One Blue Eye and One Brown Eye, and looked like a passive personality Dog. Anyway, at the Convenience Store I had to use the Automated Kiosk, damned things I Hate using coz they almost always mess up, coz the Clerk didn't wanna work and do Checkout. They're getting so Lazy at Circle K now they have those Kiosks and force you to use them. So, I was using my Debit Card to pay for my Purchase and the damned Kiosk malfunctioned, typical, but this time it spit a bunch of Money out at me!!! I was gonna say something to the Clerk, but she was surly and rude as Hell and didn't want Customers even bothering or talking to her while she was on her Phone NOT Working and ignoring Customers!
So, I thought, Fuck it, not my problem if their damned Kiosks go Haywire and spit out Cash on a Card Transaction like a Jackpot in Vegas. They should be using Humans anyway and not these damned Machines taking Jobs away. I didn't even look to see how much the Kiosk had given me back in Cash for a Debit Card Purchase and just stuck it in my Purse and left, so I could get back to feed the Dog. Turned out it was almost Forty Bucks!!! Perhaps a 'God Thing' for me doing the Good Deed for the abandoned looking Mama Dog? I know, it's a stretch to think that, but, who knows? Tho' usually no Good Deed goes unpunished, this might have been that Rare exception?! *LOL* Since I was quite willing to pay too much for their overpriced Bag of Dog Food anyway out of Pocket. *LOL and Winks* So, I put half the Bag of Dog Food by her, which should feed her for at least a couple Days or more. And I'll keep half in my Truck in case she's still there whenever I go back??? I really Hope she belongs to one of the Ranches nearby? Some of them let their Dogs run free coz it is quite Rural out there, or, she might have gotten out and will go back Home?
It isn't so unusual to see Dogs running loose near the River or in the Farms and Ranches Fields and Pastures. I've even seen some of their Chickens that leave their Properties and run around by the River too. They lay Eggs everywhere actually!!! But, I get so angry at Humans that abandon their Pets, it used to happen all the time in Da Hood. People would Move and not take their Animals, sometimes leaving a Dog tied up!!! Or just decide they didn't want them anymore and turn them out. Of coarse some didn't take much Care of their Children any better. We'd have to call Animal Control all the time for abandoned Pets when one of the Rental Properties left and then you'd realize they never took their Animals with them and just left them there to suffer and Die!!! And in some areas of Arizona there's so many Natural Predatory Animals that you can't have an Outdoor Domestic Pet or it'll be a Meal. I'm such a Sucker and Soft Touch for any Animals tho', Yes, even Sky Rats. *Smiles*
Besides, Pigeons are only a Member of the Dove Species and most people don't Hate Doves! Pigeons just learned how to coexist easily amongst us, adapt, and now those adaptations have made them a Nuisance Animal, that's all. The difference being Pigeons easily became Urbanized and even when you're Photographing Birds, what stands out is that a Sky Rat will come right up for their Close-up and then try to Con you into Feeding them as a Reward, like they Need to Get Paid. *LOL* Whereas, the other type of Dove you quite often have to Photograph from afar and they show no Natural Curiosity or try to Panhandle from ya. *Bwahahahaha* These Two Pixs pretty much reveal that difference of Dove Type... and I must say, the Sky Rat Bird in Da Hood gave better Face and Owned that Photo Shoot, even seductively showing some Leg and being Sassy. *LMAO* You gotta usually catch other Dove in a Pix unawares.
The Daughter and Mando are Washing and Detailing the inside and outside of my Truck for me, Bless 'em. They did all the Yardwork Yesterday and look for something to be Helpful about, neither of them is Idle, ever. I think if either of them were gainfully Employable they would be. But he's got the Stage 4 going on and she's SMI, so, Employers couldn't accommodate them enuf to Hire them Full Time, or even really Part Time, since, they have their Good Days and their Bad Days of Health and Mental Health, where, they aren't functional. He'd been told he wouldn't last 'til his next Birthday and he did already, so he's far past the Expiration Date Docs gave him. I'm amazed he can still manage to do so much and both TJ and Rob are like that with their Stage 4 Cancer, you'd never know they were so Sick and in such a Life and Death Battle. I guess Rob was given Morphine for the extreme Pain he's in but he quit taking it, didn't like how it made him Feel, so takes just Aleve. That's what my Dad just took for Cancer too and the Cancer isn't what took him in The End.
Anyway, it's hard to pretend things are Normal once someone has been given a Terminal Diagnosis, even if they don't succumb when Docs predict they will, it's a Mind Fuck, to be given such a Diagnosis, isn't it? All Three have told me it Uplifted them and snapped them out of their Deep Funk of a grim Diagnosis the Docs said was Hopeless and they were Short-Timers when I told them, Listen, you're not Dead 'til God says so! I've seen perfectly Health folks drop Dead that had just been given a complete Physical that said they were Golden and Fine. I've known many people with Terminal Diagnosis, including Family Members, that just refused to Die and lived Decades past the Expiration Date they were given by Docs, some Outlived their Doctors in fact! My Uncle in Wales Outlived Four of his who had given him a Terminal Diagnosis Death Sentence and said he'd last only Weeks, when he was in his 40's... they couldn't fathom why he was even still Alive actually, and he lived to be 90.
There's much Mystery in our Mortality actually and in each Individual's Will to Live... or to Give Up, Give In and Give Out. Some do Fight valiantly and lose their Battle, some Peacefully succumb and are at Peace with Dying when their Time comes. Some want to Die and just can't, it's just not their Time to. My Buddhist Maternal Grandfather had a very interesting take on Mortality, on Life and on Death. I think I aligned with his Philosophy and the Eastern way of Living and Thinking most. He Viewed it merely as a Transition, and not as an End. He Believed in the continuity of Consciousness reborn into a New Life, rather like my strong Belief that Energy never Dies, it just Changes Form. Equanimity in facing Death is the desired Positive Energy rather than Fearing it and the better Life is Lived, the higher possibility of attaining Nirvana. Everyone has their personal Belief Systems tho', and in Life how can we know of Death intimately until it comes for us?
I got some Essential Oils at the Chazza that Princess T works at, brand new in 10 different Aromas for Aromatherapy. I got an adorable Halloween Vintage Blow Mold and a Coffee Mug in Farmhouse Style that says FLOWER CHILD. I also got a Bagged Lot of 1920's Photos that I was Jazzed to sift thru. There were so many and great genre, quite a few Beach Vacation Photos, 1920's Era Cars, so many of the Era's Iconic High Fashions, the people in these Images clearly had means and portrayed the more affluent segment of Society of the 20's who could afford really nice things and seemed to be able to go on a lot of Vacations. My own Parents were born in the early 1930's and their Parents never went on Vacations. Though Google does say that Vacationing became significantly accessible for a broader range of people. The rise of the Automobile contributed to that and neither my Mom or my Dad's Families ever owned one in their Lifetimes. My Parents didn't even own one until after I was Born.
Anyway, the Photos were my favorite Score of the Day followed by the Halloween Blow Mold, which, I'll Share a Photo of in another Post, this one is already Visually heavy and gone too Long. *Winks* Usually Princess T gets off Work earlier on Tuesdays since they go in an Hour earlier, but Today they had to work some mandatory overtime. So, I had to hang out there for quite some time waiting on her to get off. They often don't know they're gonna hafta stay late until it happens and is necessary. They had some new Employees that were in Training and slowing everything down considerably while they Learned what they were doing. She's really Hopeful these new ones work out since they've had a lot of new ones that didn't and either washed out or had to be fired, if they didn't voluntarily just quit and not show up anymore.
She pointed out her new Supervisor, an overweight Middle Aged Hispanic Woman who makes quite a Production of pretending to look like she's actually Working and doing something. That's Princess T's complaint about her, she really isn't up to the Job or even tries to do any Work if she can just fake doing something. I Observed her and watched for quite some time as she basically did nothing but spent a lot of time acting like she was actually doing something. She was supposed to be assisting her Team so they could get out of there, but clearly she was useless and the pretense of Working was clearly annoying all the Team she Supervises. How can they respect her or take her Seriously when she's a Slacker and doesn't Lead by Example what she expects of her People? I know Upper Management has their Eye in the Sky, and recorded Surveillance as well, in there, so they must be noticing???
I've always had thin Hair and sparse Body Hair that's almost non-existent, so Dreadlocks is the thickest my Hair has ever been and looked. I consolidated my original 60 Micro-Dreads down to 15 more manageable Dreadlocks that are thicker. Sixty was too many and hard to find Hair Accessories that could fit around them. With the 15 now it's easier to find Accessories to put some of them up in a Ponytail to cover up that 'Spot'. *LOL* You just let them Congo into absorbing one another as they grow out to reduce the numbers. She knows I don't Dye my Hair and prefer letting it be Natural and unprocessed, 99% of my Hair is the same Color it's always been since I was a Child, and my Dad's side rarely went Grey no matter how Old they got. Mom's side got prematurely Silver, a Beautiful hue of it so it looks stunning, but, I didn't Inherit that Gene apparently. My Brother went Silver in his 30's, so did my Mom, but before that they had Blue Black Hair the Color of a Raven's Wing and I was always so envious. I wanted the gorgeous Blue Black Hair Color of the rest of my Family.
Plus, my Brother got the fabulous thick wavy Welsh Hair and Beautiful Hazel Eyes, I got the thinner matchstick straight Native American Hair. I didn't mind getting my Mom's Family's Pale Grey Eyes, I'd rarely see people with my Eye Color except some Middle Eastern Tribal Clans. There's a Turbaned Middle Eastern Tribal Elder who owns the Convenience Store near us with identical Color Eyes as me and he always winks at me and tells me how Beautiful my Eyes are. *Winks* And then I joke back and tell him "Ditto", the Kiddos get a kick out of it. His Pale Grey Eyes do look stunning against his very swarthy complexion. My Welsh Uncle said there was a whole Bedouin Tribe when he was stationed in the Middle East that had our Family's Eye Color.
And since he had them too, they embraced my Uncle warmly. Mom, Dad and my Brother had the Blue Black Hair, so me being Blonde as a Kid, with Dark Skin, and Grey Eyes, looked kinda Freakish tho'. But, it matches my Personality, which is very Odd too. *LOL and Winks*
Hard to Believe our Downtown Antique Mall location has been around since the 1990's already... I have the First Anniversary Promo Mug...
