As Spring Cleaning continues there's a 'Rediscovering' of sorts... of cherished things put away or forgotten that I haven't seen in a very long time...
Things that evoke powerful Memories... such as this old faded photo of my Nanna and I... taken in the very early 70's when she came all the way from North Wales for her first ever visit to America...
Nanna was Bohemian and Glam when it wasn't even the norm to be... she was a Stage Actress in the Theatre, before Television, and a Dancer, an original Flapper Girl... she even got Married in a Flapper Style Dress and Pea-hat... and an extraordinary progressive Woman way ahead of her time... an excellent role Model to be a well educated, strong, independant Woman in any era and at any age... quite a feat for a Woman born well over a 100 years ago...
And there's the moving around of newly acquired Treasures to just the right spot...
And deciding to let some things just 'be' as they are... at least for now...
Rediscovering small Treasures from Trips to the Beach... and Flea Markets from afar...
Also discovering that every window in this ole' House is ready for a good Spring Cleaning... *LOL*
No, that's not a Photoshop special effect blurring and softening the view out the window... that's just a very dirty window!!! *Smiles*
A Domestic goddess I am NOT...
There's the redistribution and rotation of the Rosaries around the House... they are my favorite accents when decorating and I love showcasing my vast collection of them here and there in vignettes and draping them just about anywhere...
And then, after we're done for the day... there are the well deserved naps... because after all, Rat Boy finds it quite exhausting to Supervise Mama as I clean ... it's a dirty job, but somebody's gotta do it... *Winks*
Dawn... The Bohemian
