A mother is not a person to lean on, but a person to make leaning unnecessary.

Nothing as beautiful as this.

Day 61 - Priceless

Some things mean a lot to you when you receive them and some things mean more to you as time goes on. This was a housewarming gift from my good friends Allen and Arleen Lynch who thanks to Facebook have found their way back into my normally bleak existence. I was thinking about all the crazy stuff we did together when I lived in Miami and remembered this. If memory serves me here, the glass is from their wedding and the shoe is his grandmothers. I loved it when he gave it to me (I was also mad cause the slept over and he crept out in the wee hours to go back to work and I gave Arleen and earfull about how much her husband was workign too hard..he came back with this..man I felt like a boob) now its priceless.

PS I still don't know enough about PSE6 to get rid of the flash spots..or maybe I need to know more about photography...
