“The soul becomes dyed with the color of its thoughts.”
Marcus Aurelius (Roman emperor, best known for his Meditations on Stoic philosophy, AD 121-180)

TIME: 9:30 PM
PLACE: Kitchen
SUBJECT: Putnam Dye Storage Cabinet front

I picked this up at the local flea market last year?
Or maybe the year before?
Now I’m not sure.
It’s the front door from a dye storage cabinet.
It’s rusty, incomplete.
and not in good condition.
But…

This girl has got some sass.
I like it.

“If a woman rebels against high-heeled shoes, she should take care to do it in a very smart hat”

SUBJECT:  StellaDella modeling her “Brock-a-brella”

We went to the flea market this morning, DQ, SD and I.  SD found this umbrella hat, aka the “Brock-a-brella” (a umbrella hat, invented by St. Louis Baseball Cardinal Hall of Famer, Lou Brock and Richard H. Nielson) and had to have it.  She wore it while browsing the booths.  Of course, this thoroughly embarrassed her older sister who didn’t want to be seen next to her at. all.  I did get DQ to take a photo of SD wearing it at the flea market for me as both my cell phone and camera batteries were dead.
