A Gift From JoAnn
Have you seen Madeleine McCann
Phone Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111 or 004336 4 1883 731 for outside UK.
Madeleine has a noticeable (and eye catching) birth defect in her right eye pupil - not obvious in this picture. It looks like the black of her pupil has run into the rest of her eye - like a tear drop.

I once worked with a lady who hung the clothes with matching coloured pegs. It annoyed her to see her neighbours washing on the line with mis matched coloured pegs!
You see Ruth, these people make us realise there are issues out there which need addressing!
I blame society for supplying multi-coloured pegs!
One colour clothes pegs I say!
The Beecher family is from Connecticut, my home state, and I worship Harriet Beecher Stowe. Henry was her brother.
As for the clothespins (the proper word for these!): I've never seen colored pins. We have wooden ones with metal springs. These in the photo are very odd and short.
Was Henry right? Or do we hang words off of ideas? This will be needling me all day!
There is a difference in what they are called and what they look like in different countries but they all serve the same purpose. I can remember seeing different colored ones made from plastic and there were the old wooden ones that we used to make clothes pin dolls out of. What a wonderful invention!
Words are powerful, and a single one can spark all sorts of ideas.
When I see those I think always:
"Monday is wash-clothing day!"
Nice photo, I love the detail this way!:)
that reminds me i haven't done my laundry in 2 weeks now!!!! No i'm, not a slob...just busy!!!!!
