This was gorgeous! I always know that your entry is going to take me away to exactly where you place me.

Thanks have to spare some time for reading why is life so full of 'other stuff?'..

[jacq22]

So grateful you took the time to read. Thanks for comments.

So neat to see where she is years later :)

I was thinking her 'snappy' side might be less when Frank died, as he was the one who kept it alive, but who knows the new 'guests' might fire her up. Thank you.

I'm so glad Jenny and Lacey are there:)

It is hard to grow old. I'm not to Viola's stage yet but this line really struck a chord:

"Lost days, lost years, when had she become so old, and so spent?"

It is hard sometimes to realize some of your dreams cannot happen due to one's age and we must pass them down the line to someone who can use them, like Lacey and Jenny.

Thanks for showing us another side of Viola.

Thank you for your gentle comments. I am nearly at Viola's stage, LOL. But mostly feel 22 inside and a heck of a lot older outside!

I actually teared up in this. You have such a gift for touching the heart. And you do it so simply. The lives you write seem so full, even with so little detail, they can be felt with a rich heart and a wistful sigh. Lovely, my dear.

Ah you teared up?...that is because you are a passionate woman. Living life the way it was intended, so thank you for your encouragement.
