Do You Ever Hear That Song?



Do you ever hear that song in your head if and when you think about the Wizard of Oz??? It's the one that goes along with the Wicked Witch riding on her bike and little sweet Toto is in the basket??? I have that song permantly stuck in my small small brain---devasted I was when I first saw that movie---that that mean old witch would do such a thing----and I am going to have to say that I am pretty sure that is the VERY reason my sweet little sister Mary is afraid of bad weather---TORNADOES!!!! I can remember her pacing back and forth on the sidewalk at the very sight of a slightly darkened cloud---sunshine or not outside---she was wringing her hands and sweating bullets pacing back and forth ---back and forth----on the sidewalk in front of our childhood home---looking to the sky as if it was gonna open up and swallow her up----wished it---NEVER happened though----only because I wanted her to feel accomplished---so she could say 'SEEEEE--I TOLD YA SO!!!!'-----would NOT wish it now---even though I have always loved her deeply---she was a BIG---I mean BIG scaredy CAT! She is finally wrapping up her therapy sessions regarding this and I am hoping this will be her first summer that she can enjoy the great outdoors----she's a year younger than me if that gives you any concept about how long her therapy has lasted---SSHHHH--we don't like to talk about it!----Love ya MOOTS!

These two ladies are now listed on Ebay----I am thrilled to bring them to you!

Awwwww Stace----Probably NOT---just cuz we usually had a MEAN game of kickball or spud goin and she was SCREWIN' it all up cuz the teams were uneven---one time we were actually herded to the basement because of bad weather and Dad would NOT come downstairs---what does he decide to do at that VERY moment??---vacuum--yup---do you have any idea what a vacuum cleaner sounds like on a hardwood floor when you are in the space directly below that? Mom was none to happy! I was trying to figure out how his obituary was gonna read---Oh MYLANTA!!!

I think we were all scared of something from that movie as a child...I know I use to be terrified of those monkeys....I swore that there was a group of them hidden UNDER the shed up the road from our house. Still to this day I feel weird when I go to my parents and pass by that shed. I've no idea why I thought they were UNDER the shed and not in it....but I did!!!

Blessings,
Doreen
